    don't feel that way D:

    I cry nearly all the time when i read because for some reason i have a habbit of picking up tragic romance novels and such >.>
    i cried my eyes out when Brom died in Eragon. I read that two years ago and the tear stains are still on the pages.

    Yes, I've cried several times during different books. The scenes that I cry during are normally just so moving and beautiful that I can't not cry during them. Like emotional scenes...or death scenes. I almost always cry when a person I like dies.

    If I read anything where someone important unexpectedly dies, then I cry. Other then that, nada.

    I've cried while reading a few books, if someone I like in the story dies, I cry. Especially if the author adds in a plot twist and you weren't expecting that person to die. I've also cried if I've read something so closely related to my life happens, typically something sad, obviously. Other than those things, no, I don't cry.

    Hm... when I read "The Great Hills Divide" series... like the laaast book of the series... forgot who it was writen by, that surprisingly made me cry. ;_; That seems like the only time... and then when a character you likes dies too... that makes me cry.

    I usually cry a bit in sad parts. I cry a lot when I'm in a sad part, I'm listening to a sad song and I haven't slept at all.... *facepalms myself*

    I don't think I have, but I like to feel emotion about a book so it's more deep and I get into it more. But since I'm a reeally slow reader I'm usually prepared if I realise they'll die... Unless it's like the shocking death in Harry Potter 6, but I didn't cry about that.

    I cried sometimes, depend on what book it is.

    I remember crying while I was reading Specials from Scott Westerfeld.

    Oh god yes, that book made me cry so much D:
    But you feel better after reading a man named Dave ^^


    The black magician trilogy made me cry D:
    But usually I dont; though I find myself thinking about the characters long after the book has finished - that to me is the defination of a good book.
