I second the rec for A Monster Calls -- it's absolutely stunning and so worth the tears.

Hmm, the last book other than that one that pulled my emotional strings was probably Breadcrumbs by Anne Ursu. It deals with Jack and Hazel, two friends who have begun to grow apart, except Hazel's not quite ready to let go just yet. Very gorgeous and bittersweet.

The Fault in Our Stars also hit me in the feels, but I'm sure you're familiar with that one already :)

Someone on my flist recommended Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe by Benjamin Alire Saenz just this morning as a book that tugged on her heartstrings and left her ridiculously happy.
