A Paragraph that Perfectly Ends a Book

We got a book recommendation from paul maloon who lives in batavia new york he says that he

Really loved this book called the door-to-door bookstore by karsten hen and he read it translated

From the German by Melody Shaw. I haven’t read the book, but it sounds charming. He says it’s a

Book lover’s book, and it’s about a reclusive 70-something bookseller who carefully chooses

Various books to deliver to certain customers in the evening and forms friendships with them.

And Paul says you can find the plot online, but basically there are two main characters in it that

You can cheer for. And Paul shared a favorite quote from this book that I wanted to share with

You because I think it’s pretty universal. He said, one quote that touched me was, even when an

Extraordinary book ends at precisely the right point with precisely the right words and anything

Further would only destroy that perfection, it still leaves us wanting more pages. I just thought

That that was such a great way to describe the end of a great book. You know, I still wonder how

Demon Copperhead’s doing these days.

Oh, perfect.
