Books That Made Us Cry and We Loved Every Moment
Can I Bring My Book: The podcast where besties meet books… and ugly cry over them.
This week, Amanda and Kat tackle the ultimate emotional damage: books that made them cry. Amanda brings the heartbreak with Sandwich and A Little Life, while Kat breaks down the emotional gut punch of At First Spite and the historical devastation of Salt to the Sea. It’s fine. We’re fine. (We are not fine.)
Also in this episode:
-
The books that broke us (and the ones we’re still recovering from)
-
Bathtub rescues, emotionally supportive book boyfriends, and third-story windows
-
Wartime tragedy, fake boyfriends, and devastating plot twists
-
Tropes of the week: Damsel in Distress (Bella Swan, we’re looking at you) and Meet-Cringe (yes, that means Fifty Shades)
-
Books mentioned: At First Spite, Sandwich, Salt to the Sea, A Little Life, Twilight, Cinder, Assistant to the Villain, and Fifty Shades of Grey
Come for the chaos, stay for the tears—and maybe bring tissues.
