1.
There are a wide range of emotions that overwhelm you as you're finishing a book.
2.
Sometimes, you just feel okay.
3.
Sometimes it's pretty good.
4.
And sometimes the book just sucks.
5.
But then there's that book — the one you took everywhere.
6.
When you're finishing that book, it's good.
8.
Like the best thing you've ever read.
9.
Like you start internally screaming for the narrator to keep going.
10.
Like you don't want the book to actually end so you can just eternally live in this blissful moment.
11.
Because every last paragraph makes you feel emotions you've never felt before.
12.
And every final sentence makes you want to cry in joy.
15.
That spirit of that last beautiful word consumes you.
16.
And days, weeks, months later, when you think back on that book, you smile fondly.
17.
Then you pick up another book, uncertain of whether you'll like it.
18.
But it looks like it can make you feel like the last one did.
19.
So you take the plunge.
