Someone will have to set it off manually.
Oooh, I know this one! "Is that it? Are we done?"

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

I look more rad than Lutheranism

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."
I bawled like John Boehner at the end of Never Let Me Go.

What was the line?
This is the line that kills me:
But until I was four, almost five years old, I couldn't walk, only crawl. I spent a lot of time looking at people's knees. But if there was ever a parade, or something to see, I had the best view of anybody because I watched it from on top the Sergeant's shoulders.

Hey. New board.
"Is that it? Are we done?"
I know I'm supposed to know what this comes from. I don't.

Thrive to spite them
First book I remember crying while reading is A Lantern In Her Hand. And then Where the Red Fern Grows.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I remember as a kid, crying at the end of a book called Tom's Midnight Garden [link] But not because it was sad, just because i enjoyed it so much that I didn't want it to end.

Hey. New board.
Gris, Angel. Doyle.
Ah! Yes.
It was part of my tag once. I am ashamed.

hip deep in pie
More than Anne of Green Gables, I cried hard at the end of Pat and Emily series by LM Montgomery. I read the Pat series again when I was older and didn't love it as much, so I've stayed away from Emily of New Moon.

not your mom's socks.
Books make me sad, but more often, they'll make me angry on behalf of a character, or a group.
But I'm a sucker for visuals and injustice, and HKF recently caught me sniffling over a Little House on The Prairie episode HKF was watching. What? It was sad that Mary didn't take the test after she nearly burned down the barn. See also, Ever After.
