You know that feeling when you’re within 100 pages of finishing a beautiful story & notice you’re a bit sad because you’re not ready to say goodbye to such enchanting characters?

I’m at that part of Cloud Cuckoo Land by Anthony Doerr. It’s the most magnificent book I’ve read in years. #books

@Sheril Thanks for the tip!
My personal 'I don't want to leave that world' was when I read the books about Thule, the series 'Children of mother Earth' by Thea Beckman. I longed to live in that world. And although I read them as an adult, I remember I was so sad about the books coming to an end. I cherished every word on the last pages, knowing the last one would definitely mean good-bye.
