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

[LarryUnderwood]

I haven't read most of the comments because I keep wanting to click on spoilers and have a hard time resisting that temptation, so I'm just going to answer.

I was young when I read Cujo and when

the son dies

I had a real hard time with it. I haven't re-read it as an adult yet, but am planning on it soon. I know it will be rough because I'm a parent now and wasn't when I read it the first time. Pet Sematary, too with all of

the Gage stuff

. Sad, sad, sad.

So many parts of The Stand. I was proud of Glen

near his end and then sad once he was gone

. There was also one short part in there where it talks about a

5 year old boy that is left alone after his family dies and then he fell down a well(I think it was a well) and broke both legs and then died awhile later. That one part just REALLY got to me and a few tears did fall. Thinking of what that poor boy went through, so young and so alone.

I know he wasn't real, but dang...haha that whole passage just got to me. I was reading it thinking "No. Oh God. Nooo. Oh my God." I remember thinking right after that "Why, Stephen? Why did you have to do that to that poor little boy?" ahahahahah! Again, he wasn't real, but that's how the King Man does it, right? Sucks you in so much you feel like you're reading a true story.

Although I didn't love Cell, I was very sad when

Alice died .

I didn't much see the point of her for the first part of the book and then I grew to like her more. I had that familiar sense of dread reading up to

her death and when she was hit with the rock

my heart sunk so far down in my gut I thought I would puke. That was one part of that book that I...well, I didn't enjoy it..but I did...but..well..I think that's about all the explanation I can give for it. Poor, poor

Alice

In my opinion the most disturbing passage in "The Stand" was where Lloyd was talking about his experience with his rabbit. It didn't make me tear up, but disturbed me greatly. I personally enjoyed Cell! But I can understand why people don't. It was my first Stephen King book I ever read so I'm partial to it.

I'm not one to cry, but I cried on three separate occasions when I read The Dark Tower 7. I think we all know what those occasions are...

[TheWhitelighter]

Let me see, I cried in... The Dark Tower, a lot. Desperation, The Regulators and Salem's Lot. As for movies, I cried in: The Mist and Red Rose.

[Alexandra19]

Quite a lot when I think about it !
The Stand

Show Spoiler

(when Stu falls in the ravine and can not make it in Vegas with the others - it's actually a good thing for him, but the goodbyes are pretty sad, especially between Stu and Glen)

The Dark Tower

Show Spoiler

(I cry nonstop each time I re-read DT VII)

And It

Show Spoiler

(when the leeches kill Patrick Hockstetter)

Yes I am kidding about N°3

[Jesgriebel]

I didn't cry, but I actually felt a lot of strong emotion when reading Lisey's Story.
It was a touching tale.

[ghost19]

Didn't cry but the end of The Dark Tower series did make me take a seat on my patio outside at about 2 in the morning. An hour or so later I was still sitting there looking up at the stars thinking about, well, everything. All the years I had spent reading Mr. King's books, through good times and bad. Such a good ending to a wonderful series. Probably the closest to crying I've been in years, but I'm your quintissential male, very rarely, if ever, capable of turning on the water works. Also, reading the actual story Hearts in Atlantis in the book of the same name kicks me in the ass every time. It's like I'm stepping back into college all over again. The way the story is written? Change the names and the setting, otherwise, I'm Pete Riley. It seems like all the guys I was friends with in college are represented in that story to some degree. One of the best stories I've ever read and every time it gets to me. More so as I get older, I think.

[furrawn]

I cried at at least one part in Insomnia, Lisey's Story, The Stand, and Bag of Bones...
But Duma Key- I cried buckets...

[bryras]

The Talisman. Different Seasons - The Body. I lost some friends when I was pretty young.

[larchi]

I seem to be a minority here? Desperation? I mean i just sobbed and sobbed and sobbed. I was unconsolable. Really beautiful book though...

[King fan from trinidad]

I never like cry out loud with tears flying all over the place but i just got misty towards the end of pet sematary (the first NOVEL I read from stephen king) when i reflected on how the man must have felt.
