The first book that ever made me cry

I originally had to read this book for a class and approached it as "required reading". However, as soon as I began reading it, I couldn't put it down- I read it in one sitting! This was the first book that made me cry. I felt compassion for the characters Juletane and Helene. Vierya-Warner made the reader feel the isolation and despair that linked their stories together. This is one of my favorite books.
