shadowkatThe prompt is ... A book that made you cry
Sigh.
The Fault in Our Stars by John Green
I bawled at the end of that book. And I rarely cry in books. It takes a lot to move me to tears in books. Television - not so much, books yep.
I read the book because - it was rec'd to me by someone I trust, and it really does an excellent job of describing fandom or becoming obsessed with a story - as a way of coping with life's pain and getting through it.
It was rec'd to me because of how it depicts fandom or becoming fannish about something.
I don't recommend the movie. Some of the fannishness is lost in the film.
