Me: is sad.
Also me: “ohhhh sad books! Just what I need!”
*proceeds to add all the books to my TBR*
Mood tho. I've been wanting to read more heartbreaking books but they've all disappointed me. I don't get that sad when reading a book, not gonna lie, rarely I cry. I tear up the most. But right now I'm reading the count of Monte Cristo (bless me) and MY HEART!!!!!
My mother is also a cancer survivor, and she got her diagnosis when I was very young. As such, yeah, A Monster Calls is such a short little book, but it hits HARD. I bawled my eyes out.
Jesse, love the book heartbreak tournament. Almost made me cry. Imagine a book character tournament like Percy Jackson vs Kaz Brekker or Harry Potter vs Katniss Everdeen (THE GIRL ON FIRE!)
I would pick Percy Jackson. Nothing against Kaz . I just have a stronger connection to Percy .
my most heartbreaking book is either crooked kingdom or the song of achilles. typical, i know, but they are on everyone’s crying list for a reason
I honestly didn't cry at TSOA, is it just me? Like the book was good but it didn't leave me breathless when I read it. In fact, I somehow got annoyed at the fact that Patroclus still wanted to stay with Achilles after his personality became so shitty. However, it's been now 1-2 month/s and I feel like rereading it again because somehow it's stuck in my head 😂 I've a feeling that TSOA might be more emotional to me after I read it for a second time
@@sin3358 no fr i didn’t cry so with that book either😆
I remember reading Crooked Kingdom on my way to a volleyball tournament in South Carolina. I was silently crying in the car when I got to Mathias's death scene and was praying to God my dad wouldn't notice.
The saddest book I've ever read is The Book Thief. I had to read it for class, but I genuinely enjoyed it. It made me cry multiple times, but at the end I just started bawling like full on sobbing. I love that book so much regardless.
I had read it a couple times, but then on one read it just hit so hard by the end that I was sobbing into my pillow
But it's definitely my favorite book
@@maddison5120 Yeah. It's such a good book. It's definitely one I would recommend everyone read at least once in their lifetime.
Omg- I just read finished this book like an hour ago, after I finish this message, imma listen to my sad Spotify playlist to cry to… 😅
I knew A Monster Calls was gonna win the moment I saw it - that book had me crying at 2am.
The most recent read that made me cry was "And Every Morning the Way Home Gets Longer and Longer" by Fredrik Backman. I've read it twice now, and both times I couldn't keep it dry. It hit a little bit too close to home.
Crooked Kingdom. I finished a week ago amd im still crying
A monster calls is so sad and raw and hurtful in the best possible way. And the way the story came about too 😢And you're so right, the adaption is perfection? Word for word the book and captures it brilliantly. Definitely needs more love and attention. More happy than not is earth shattering painful...
The most resent heart break moment iv had was while reading orbiting jupiter, I read it in one siting and it's ending is so devastating yet happy at the same time I was cry and smiling at the same time
YES
The book that I read last year that I had me absolute sobbing was "Red Seas Under Red Skies" by Scott Lynch. If you know then you know!
I definitely know... me too
Didn´read it yet, i thought Lias of Locke Lamora was sad...
I’m a relativity new reader (within the past few years) and the only books that I have really cried because were: Crooked Kingdom, You’ve Reached Sam
The only book that has completely wrecked me is A Monster Calls. It is the ONLY book that has made me cry my eyes out to the point where my dad had to hold me until I could breathe again. No other book have made me feel that way.
The most heartbreaking book for me is "If I Stay" ~ by Gayle Forman. It hits me so hard in a personal way. I cried reading this book.
My most heart breaking book was Freak the Mighty, its a book I read for school but I've never sobbed harder for a character before so it's my most heartbreaking one.
Called it!
I watch too many of Jesse's videos. We don't even read the same books. I just can't stop watching.
Me, who is currently reading crooked kingdom for the first time: I’ve apparently got a big storm coming
👁💧👄💧👁
it’s been a month since you posted this, how’d it go?
@@izzydoesmusic pain, so much pain. but also happiness??? my tears were so confused
beginning of the plague when I could finally read a book again I looked at my shelves and went oh that looks light and fluffy I need light and fluffy and picked up off the shelf love saves the Day and it's two perspectives about a a mother not connecting with her daughter and dying alone and then the daughter going through her mother's possessions and having flashbacks and morning how hard she was on her mother and having lost my mother and now having a daughter it was just I was bawling my eyes out at 3:00 a.m.
I'm so glad a monster calls won! I freaking love that book!!
I didn’t read this recently, but I have read it three times since I first read it in my high school’s book club: “The Voice in My Head” by Dana L. Davis. This is a family focused book; it contains a road trip; and it deals with the topic of health conditions where there’s a chance the person won’t survive…. Now I have to go re-read it.
The most recent book I read (back in August) that had me sobbing was Night of the Dragon by Julie Kagawa. I was also reading it at work (hotel receptionist) so every time someone came to check out in the morning, I had to reign in my tears. But there was nothing I could do about my red eyes so I looked wrecked lol and everyone probably thought I was crazy 😅
Being on your phone 24/7
Con: your procrastination level 💯
Pro: you always able to watch jesses video within seconds of him posting them ♥️
So true!!!!! 😂
If you mean sadness, you've reached sam. If you mean physically cry, caraval. If you mean cry from frustration, the lake.
The most heartbreaking book I've read was actually we were liars! it sent me into a heartbreak spiral at 3 am one fateful night
Yo, that plot twist had me reeling, I haven't stopped thinking about it since I read it years ago
Jesse, you're putting your books away as you go!!! I'm so proud!!! Also, this video was great, thank you for all the effort you put into your videos! You are a blessing in my life 💛 🙏
Another moment that REALLY made me heartbroken, as a disabled person/decent human being (those (Spoilers for Crooked Kingdom) is NO ONE HARMS WYLAN LIKE HIS FATHER DID!!!!!!!!!
The boy was treated like garbage by his father, had two murder attempts made on his life, thought his mom was dead, only to learn that she was still alive, while disguised as someone else?
I'm fairly certain that it is agreed upon that Wylan had the worst backstory amongst the crows.
You brightened up my evening so much! Even though the books were heartbreaking, I loved this video!
Me: (has not read any of these books) "Awww.. I was rooting for You've reached Sam 😩"
I was too
That was such a good book
I loved See You At Harry’s. I picked it up on a whim at the Scholastic book fair and let it sit on my shelf for months. When I finally picked it up ai had zero expectations going. Once I started reading I could not put it down, it was so good! I was an emotional mess the entire time I read this book. Unfortunately I reached the juicy parts while I was at school in between different standardized tests. So the entire day I am just holding back tears while trying to finish my tests as quickly as possible so I could get back the books. I will forever and always love this book so much, for sure a 5 stars!
A Monster Calls is beautiful no matter the format and I’ve cried reading the book, watching the movie, and even watching the stage play adaptation. It’s just that heart-wrenching of a story and I love it so much
It Ends With Us by Colleen Hoover absolutely destroyed me. I was sobbing by the end of it. 😭
I rarely cry while reading so if i do it's a big deal. I've only cried for I think 3 books: Marley and Me (listen...), The Fault in Our Stars and A Man Called Ove. You've convinced me to read You've Reached Sam.
I have marley and me on my bookshelf, but I am afraid to read it.
I have to pick up A Monster Calls like it’s been years and I still haven’t done it
My best friend and I started book of the month in December together and we ft each other when the book list drops to talk ab which one to pick and I love it
I've been avoiding sad books lately but you've just reminded me of the beauty they come with so maybe I'll finally feel strong enough to read You've Reached Sam and books of the like 🥺
Love this video as usual you’ve done an awesome job Jesse. U should totally do more challenges like this there so fun
Thanks for posting!!! You’re amazing!!! Have a blessed day!!!
thank you for making my tbr list grow
When The Emperor was Devine by Julie Otsuka and Forgotten Country by Catherine Chung were both emotional reads for me
You know that you have been watching Jesse's videos for a long time if you already knew which book would win.
these type of videos are so fun to watch!! ily
I just knew A Monster Calls was going to win the moment it appeared on the screen
AGREED. A Monster Calls had me sobbing for the entire last quarter of it and I’m not usually a book crier either
Jesse: *speaking about Book of the month subscription which I already have.*
Me: Why does he have the July calendar in the background? *notices that it has books on it* Oh makes sense😂🤷♀️
The most recent story that made me have my heart ripped out of my chest is Koe no Katachi, not a book but an animated film. Still, it hit hard.
A Thousand Boy Kisses by Tillie Cole is the saddest book I’ve read, but Second Chance Summer by Morgan Matson also made me sob.
When I read A Short History of the Girl Next Door I hadn't read a description of it, so I was just expecting a light happy go lucky book, which I did not get...let me tell you I was fully bawling reading it lolll
Jesse talking about about we were liars : “it burns baby it burns”
me : burn you say 😃
The Sword of Kaigen is the only book that has managed to make me ugly sob while reading almost half of its length, it broke me in so many ways T-T
I hate depressing media so I will not read a book if I know it’ll be sad.
So Crooked Kingdom came around and /destroyed/ me. Just out of nowhere, suddenly my heart is shattered. I was so mad lol. So yeah, Crooked Kingdom is the most depressing book I’ve read and it was an accident
Loved this video idea!
For me it’s song of Achilles and they both die at the end. I feel like it was even worse because I knew how both of them ended and that made it kinda more intense for me. (I cried in the first chapter of asoa 😶)
Didn’t realize a monster calls was a book! I watched the movie last year but I need to read the books now!
You know, when you are judging books I think the personal connection you feel towards that book should always be factored in. I had a friend who didn't think A Monster Calls was that good, but it was because he had never experienced the loss of someone close. While everybody else that has experienced something like that told me the book was incredible.
Lol. Crooked Kingdom. I made my brother listen to those book and he gets home for the holidays -- has not seen me for months, mind you-- and the first thing he did was yell at me because I didn't warn him 😂 it was good day
I think the last most recent most heartbreaking book I've read was The Fault In Our Stars...or Love, A Baker and A Music Maker. Granted, I wrote the latter...but even writing part of it made me tear up!!! But if my own book doesn't count, then I go with The Fault In Our Stars. Or The Falling In Love Montage...I can't decide!!!
Loved this video!
Y'all the pain I went through in the last pages of Red Queen... I wasn't THAT hurt since TFIOS lmao
Love your videos as always 💙💙💙
This year I'm looking for books that scares me. I have House of leaves on my tbr but I'm waiting for winter to finally come. Hugs from Argentina!! 🤗
House of Leaves is so good. It's definitely an acquired taste and can be confusing at times, but I found it more fun to read with some cryptic music in my ears whilst reading it.
Just finished a court of wings and ruin and I cried like a baby! 🙈😅
Loved this video
I am reading Frost blood right now and so far so good
Hey Jesse! ❤️❤️❤️ This is all I wanted rn!
🖤
I guess I need to read A Monster Calls now.
I just finished When You Were Everything by Ashley Woodfolk and...I literally sat in my chair for an hour fighting not to cry after finishing it. Was it perfect? No. Did the antagonist feel a bit over the top at times? A bit. But that ending. THAT LAST SENTENCE. LORD. 😭😭😭
I read The Road (Cormac McCarthy) a week ago... I still haven't recovered
I SOBBED at Clockwork Princess lol
You do post at the exact minute I'm about to keep my phone aside to go to sleep and I AM NOT COMPLAINING! :'D
It is 1:38AM here in Indiaaa.
loved the video!!
History is all you left me by Adam silvera is my heartbreak king I cried so hard reading that I could barely see the pages at times
I just want to know why he didn’t put Allegiant on that list! I saw it on his bookshelf. That book broke me. 😭😭
Sad books are a true treat in the right environment.
Have you read Orbiting Jupiter? I sobbed!😭😭😭
having to decide between you've reached sam and crooked kingdom should be illegal
My earliest crying-over-a-book memory is when I read Bridge to Terabithia as a.. idk, 11, 12 year old? It WRECKED me. I cried until I couldn’t breathe. My parents were concerned. 20 years later, I’m still actively seeking out books that will devastate me. I hate it, I love it, WHY DO WE DO THIS TO OURSELVES 😂
Book rec for Jessethereader here: The Girl From The Other Side series by Siúil, a Rún. It is an amazing tale of a girl and a cursed man that meet by chance, and end up living together. It is also a translated graphic novel.
The ending really broke me.
Hahaha I was watching and I was like... WHERE'S WE WERE LIARS?! AND THEN YOU SAID IT 🤣🤣💔💔
The winner broke my heart too.
Some book had me tearing up, but the 7 husbands of Evelyn Hugo got me sobbing for the first time in my life, after getting so many years into her life and seeing how much some stuff mattered to her it was extremely painful to read at the end
I think I need to lighten up my reads; all the ones that I've read from this video are the ones you picked as the saddest 😂
When I saw A list of Cages and I went 🥺😢😭
Can anyone agree that anyone who read you’ve reached Sam is basically selling their heart to the breaking point of the story🥹😊 and the feeling of your heart being crushed by a truck 15 times or getting stabbed in the heart 15 times😂
How to make friends with the dark by Kathleen Glasgow had shattered my heart into pieces and of course List of Cages by Roben Roe, you should try Shuggi Bain
The Way I Used To Be is definitely one of the saddest books I've ever read.
For you've reached Sam.... uhmmmm I cried 56 times..... I wiped my tears away after each time then next page, more crying.... also I included just glossy eyes to absolute sobbing as crying... still, I knew what I was getting into but WOW
Fun game!
The Heartbreak Queen is Maya Angelou, and I will not stand for you giving her title to another!
My book heartbreak 💔 was Harry Potter and the order of the Phoenix. I just finished it yesterday
I am rereading the series and that is my favorite book. Also the saddest.
Great video.
Kathleen Glasglow books are my absolute favorite. She does amazing at making dark tragedies! I hope you read more from her
the most recent book i read thar made me cry actual tears was If He Had Been With Me by Laura Nowlin. i finished that book weeks ago and i'm still not over it. the ending shattered my heart and i'm never gonna be able to forgive the author. but the book was also reaLLy good!! :(
Love this video! My TBR continues to grow after having watched this 🙈💦...I think I like sad books too. You should check out Between the Bliss and Me by Lizzy Mason, Summer in the City of Roses by Michelle Ruiz Keil, Buried Beneath by Kelly Ann Hopkins, and The Last Fallen Star by Graci Kim...Read them all last year and I am not ashamed to say tears were shed 🥺🥺🥺
I read "If we were villains" by M. L. Rio recently and I strongly suggest it. It's a great and devastating read.
I remember when I accidentally spoiled Mocking Jay for a bunch of my friends. We were all reading them at the same time, and I assumed we had all stayed up too late to finish it like I had, and so I casually mentioned a character death, and everyone was SHOOK
Ooh just as I was about to start reading A Little Life 😅
I want to read a River enchanted so badly 👀 I love Rebecca Ross!
Do you have three versions of Rule of Wolves?
the book of form and emptiness by ruth ozeki broke me the most last year
