Top 10 Tearjerkers

Did you know that tears are good for your eyes? In honor of Healthy Vision Month (May) the authors of "Books That Made You Cry" came up with a Top 10 Tearjerkers list. What do you think of their list? This list got me thinking of other books that made me cry. Some that came to mind include: The Prince of Tides by Pat Conroy, Sophie's Choice by William Stryon, The Help by Kathryn Sockett and The Shack by W. Paul Young. Which books would you add to the list?
