It's about a genuis little boy whose father dies in the 9/11 terrorist attacks, but his father left behind a few secrets, so he goes off and tries to find the answers to a few of them. It's beautiful and devastating at the same time.
Woah, that was the first book that came to my mind when I read the thread title. Bear in mind that I'm easily moved by books and movies (including the HP series!), and I cry a lot. But this one... tore my heart in little pieces ._.
Everyone, do yourself a favour and read it! It's wonderful ;_;

So many books have made me cry, there;s probably more but these are the ones I can think of at the moment:
Black Beauty, Watership Down, Charlotte's Web, War Horse, The Little White Horse, ... o_0 okay enough of the animal books!
Of Mice and Men, The Wind on Fire trilogy(at the end), His Dark Materials Trilogy (sad ending!), Narnia, uhm probably HP OotP too.
Films get me too!

I cried the first time I read Charlotte's Web, Watership Down, Hamlet, and Julius Caesar. Random, but true.
I also cry every time I read Arthur Miller's Death of a Salesman I cry. I've read it at least 20 times. It's so sad on it's own, but it's really bad for me because the Lomans are exactly like my family, so the realism of it hits me very hard.

OotP didn't make me cry...maybe because I wasn't attached to the character that died. Magic's Price didn't make me cry; it just ticked me off, what she did to the one character. Grr!
There are a bunch of books that have made me feel emotional, but the only books that have made me cry are these:
Flowers for Algernon
Where the Red Fern Grows
An Old-Fashioned Girl

Re: Books That Made You Cry (Split #1)
The Perks of being a Wallflower always makes me cry, because I've seen a book character so much like me that I can identify with. When I read the book it always feels like his moods at the moment are my mood too, so when he cries, I cry. When he's happy, I'm happy.
Its definately one of my all time favorite books.

I just recently reread the Stand by Stephen King. Yep, the end of that one had my crying hard. Heck, I cried through lots of parts of that book. It is utterly brilliant. I'm in awe of Stephen King after reading the Stand. 
I also always cry at the end of L.J. Smith's Vampire Diaries (third book, not the extra fourth one she added because people were so upset about the ending of the third). I cry at the end of the Forbidden Game series too. *Julian*
I cry at the end of the Black Jewels trilogy by Anne Bishop... beautiful stories.
