I recently asked members of the BuzzFeed Community which books they thought were so scary, frustrating, or sad, that they literally had to put them down. I've already talked about which ones were so terrifying, people quit them early — now for the books people found so sad, they couldn't finish them.
BTW, ⚠️huge spoiler alert⚠️ for these books!
1. The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins.
2. The Loop by Ben Oliver.
3. Five Nights at Freddy's: The Fourth Closet by Kira Breed-Wrisley and Scott Cawthon.
4. Disgrace by J.M. Coetzee.
5. Phantom by Susan Kay.
6. A Little Life by Hanya Yanagihara.
7. I'm Thinking of Ending Things by Iain Reid.
8. Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix by J.K. Rowling.
9. A Monster Calls by Patrick Ness.
10. The Fault In Our Stars by John Green.
