Get Ready to Rock... Yourself Back and Forth While Crying!

Willow here, with (yet another) list. This one (as the title suggests) is about works of fiction that leave fans in tears and bereft of their ability to even. However, for this list, I'm not limiting the content to books. Movies and TV episodes count, too.

Beware: Spoilers.

Let's do this!
  • Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix; Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince; Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (J.K.Rowling)
    • Do I even have to explain this one?
  • The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (J.R.R.Tolkien)
    • This is heartbreaking in both the book and the movie because FRODO! NO! Apologies. I suffer from the occasional fangirl attack.
    • If you didn't cry at this part, look up the song "Into the West" by Annie Lennox. 
    • If you still didn't cry, then either I'm overly emotional or you're an Uruk-hai.
  • Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith
    • 2 words: Order 66. Need I say more?
    • Also, Mustafar.
  • The Fault in Our Stars (John Green)
    • Again, no explanation required.
  • BBC Sherlock Series 2 finale, "The Reichenbach Fall"
    • John's reaction is more heartbreaking than the actual fall.
  • Doctor Who Series 2 finale, "Doomsday"
    • ROSE! NO!
    • Sorry again.
  • Avengers: Age of Ultron
    • Pietro! We really didn't see that coming.
  • Brisingr (Christopher Paolini)
    • Oh, Oromis...
  • Star Wars: The Clone Wars Season 5 finale, "The Wrong Jedi"
    • Oh, for goodness' sake, Snips, stop it.
  • Now We Are Six (A.A.Milne)
    • There's a chance that you haven't read this or didn't think it very sad. I personally found it heartbreaking.
(Violently sniffs) What? No, no, I'm (sniff) fine. It's not like (sniff) I'm dissolving into a puddle of (sniff) feels right now or (sniff) anything.
Happy (sniff) reading!
