    The first two are short stories, but they're incredibly heart-wrenching, especially the second one. They were so close to being happy together; losing something you've had is more painful than never having had it at all. The remaining four books are also extremely poignant; I cried buckets. The last two books only have a few pages, but they're still incredibly moving.
