Recs if you like Marley and Me: Life and Love With the World’s Worst Dog...

Are you currently not crying to the point of vomiting, but you want to be? Need to conduct a science experiment to find out if you are in fact the ugliest crier in all of Pagebound? Well, do I have the list for you! Brought to you by the fine, very sad, folks of Pagebound! These books have been frequently suggested or upvoted in PB club posts about sad books! Suggestions in any genre, and extra tissues, are welcome!

Books that were adapted into movies (not tv shows). Let's make this list as long as possible!

(going to only add the first book in a series)

These are book-to-screen adaptations that you didn't know were books! Feel free to recommend or make a suggestion! Please keep in mind some movie adaptations were renamed and may not have the same name as a book. Feel free to do more research or comment if you don't know which movie was based on the book with a different name. Note: this list also includes movie novelizations. 💕 Credits to IMDB user, Goodreads, BookBub, and Buzzfeed for the book recs. (in progress)

This list is for dog lovers who can’t resist a good story told through paws, loyalty, and unconditional love. From heartwarming adventures to emotional journeys, these novels remind us just how much dogs shape the stories we carry.

Dog books can be tearjerkers. Check if the dog dies first if you’d rather avoid surprises.

Stories for processing all types of grief

A list of books that will make you cry and sobb like a baby to the point you will have trouble breathing. 😢 Personally, I’m a cryer, so I made this list to remind myself that there are still some books out here for me to cry about 🥹

All the books I’ve read that have been adapted into a movie or TV show.

True stories of animals and the way they touch our lives

For readers who like their fiction tragic, their prose pretty and their emotional recovery indefinite.

Books that are centred around a dog.
