And finally . . . to the best community in the world:
There are so many bloggers, bookstagrammers, booktubers, booksellers, booktokkers, and book nerds in the YA community who have supported me since the early days of Epic Reads. Thank you for book shimmying with me all these years!
This one is for you.
Holy shit! You’re reading this? Not only did you finish the story and read the acknowledgments, you also flipped the page hoping, against all odds, that there would be something else for you to read. Maybe you had so much fun reading this that you aren’t quite ready to move on? That’s okay, I know the feeling, but I’m sorry to say that it’s time for us to part ways! It’s time for you to start reading another book because if you don’t, you’ll get a book hangover, and we all know how annoying book hangovers are. So, go on! Get out of here! And don’t worry, if in a few days or weeks or years you want to come back and read me again, I’ll be here, waiting. Until next time . . .
Ha!
I knew you’d flip the page to see what else would be here.
The book is over!
For real this time!
