Which King book (if any) made you cry? ***SPOILERS***

[Susanne]

I rarely, if ever, cry whilst reading books (or watching films, for that matter). But I have to say that the one Stephen King book where I cried was Pet Semetary when

Gage was killed

. I found the book to be one of the most desolate and despairing of King's books. When I read it, I wasn't married and didn't have kids. Now that am married and have 2 small children, I'm not sure that I'd be able to read it again.

Having said that, I think Pet Semetary is one of King's finest achievements. It's a book that has the courage of its convictions and not once does it try to sugar coat its message. It's almost 20 years since I last read it, but I can still remember the last line, and it still give me a chill:

when they got Ted, I really thought he and Bobby would make it.

I cried all the way through DT7. At times it was so bad I had to put the book down and walk away.

Blaze. - I didn't just cry either; I sobbed.

Bag of Bones
The Dark Tower
Pretty sure I shed a few reading Lisey's Story.

Cell - When Alice gets brained with the brick I cried. Then stood up and fainted.

(hehe. It's true. bam! hit the floor.)

I cried with The Green Mile at Coffey's execution.

Hi,

All of King's novels has had one of those moments for me, but some more than others. Okay, sometimes it isn't nothing more than a single tear, but sometimes it is a whole bucket-full.

And I'm not really even such an emotional person

Long days and pleasant nights

so far:

* the whole ending to 'IT'

* when louis digs up gage's body in 'pet sematary' and it describes the corpse and louis is rocking him saying 'this is just tonight, tomorrow everything's going to be better' - that was probably the most horrific emotional thing i've ever read in my life - i was on a bus at the time (stupidly) and just started crying then and there

The long walk, was sad. I cried, and I still am! I can't get over it, incredible good book. I like the way King describe things. This book is a book I will be reading many times in the future!

Insomnia made me cry because of what happened to Ralph Roberts. I know he had insomnia, but I cared what happened to him.

When I read the Green Mile, I remember crying and while re-reading it I tried skipping the parts that were unbearable to read.

The Long Walk got me all teary-eyed too

Hi,
I cant remember if I cried at SK books I've read in the past but it is very rare for a book to make me cry, unlike a film! I recently finished Black House and cried A LOT when

a certain blind man was found murdered by his friend

The film of the Green Mile practically makes me weep uncontrollably!
