Has anyone read a book & when you were finished you felt sad b/c it was the end?

You wished the story would go on & on & on!

Heinlein's "Time Enough for Love" produced that response.

Oh yea..for me with Heinlein it was I Will Fear No Evil...i was about 10 or 20 pages to end on my commute. I sat in the train station to finish.. I love him.

Pretty much every Terry ?Pratchett fan cries when (sometimes at last) reading “The Shepard’s Crown”. It is the last book he ever did or ever will write and his estate has forbidden anyone else to use his Discworld universe. Th Th Th Th that’s all folks.

havent read the last terry pratchet book wish he had left it i his will others
could carry on the series

Personally I am glad they is not allowing anyone else to continue it. I don't remember ever seeing a series continued by somebody else that was anything except dreadful.

@GeorgeRocheleau zelazny’s Amber series is a case in point.

I re-read books all the time. You can learn something new every time you read it. Depending on the book, of course!

Not really, I just read it again or imagine its continuation in my mind. If I had to choose one of the top of my head though it would be the Hiero books by Sterling E. Lanier.

"The Island", by Peter Benchly. Great idea. But the book was too short.
