You’re specifically looking for sad nonjewish books? How clean do you want it to be? Are you fine with violence being part of the sad story?
A Little Life by Hanna Yanagihara really emotionally affected me. It does have scary and disturbing aspects but I loved it.

I specifically keep my sister's keeper near me all times in case I need to be able to cry.
I can open that up to just about any page and the tears will come

Same. Most of Jodi Picoults books make me bawl.

My trigonometry book made me cry a lot.
Seriously though, I read a lot - at least one novel a week - but I'm awful at remembering what I read and if I haven't read it in the last few weeks I mostly forget all about it. Lots of books have made me cry but I really can't name one off the top of my head right now. I should start keeping a list.

I love her books. Makes me bawl and want to become a foster mother. (I actually looked into it and spoke to the agencies but ultimately decided to hold off it for now)

I really like Diane Chamberlain, Anna Quindlen (Her book "One True Thing" is especially sad) and Catherine Ryan Hyde.
