Perhaps that's one reason why so many of us find The Grey Havens so sad...because it's the end. It really is very sad when a good book ends. But, you have to be happy that the ending was at least good. It's worse reading through an awesome book and then coming to a pathetic and poor ending... For instance, The Count of Monte Cristo is a really good book, but the ending is not so good. Whereas, the LotR is also a really good book, and its ending is one of the best endings I've ever read. (One of the saddest, too.)
