I just don't want the book to end. Why do all good books have to end? I hate when they end, it's like saying goodbye to a friend. But then again, you can always reread and reacquaint yourself with your friends any time you want to, and that's always good for me. I must have revisited Hogwarts a thousand times and it never gets old, though it does get sad at times, mostly towards the end. Tissues are always n...
