Brings back such memories of the first few years I taught high school English. Glad to see an old title on your list. I am still teaching after 36 years but now not English but in the library and love to push my girls to read some of the old favs of mine like this one! Next to Love Story of the same era, it is very, very weepy!!! I love this book. Brings back such memories of the first few years I taught high school English. Glad to see an old title on your list.

It really is such a great book, not only because of the topic, but because Norma Klein really nailed the voice. The only current book that rivals it is Before I Die by Jenny Downham.

The one that still always gets me is A Summer to Die by Lois Lowry. One of her first books, this teen tearjerker kept me bawling for hours. Well then, I’ll have to check this one out.

Really 4 tissue-worthy! Oh, I agree–A Summer to Die is a prize weepie, I should include it on this list. Really 4 tissue-worthy!
