Finishing a Book

Y'all know how it is when you read a book and are so eager to find out what happens that you finally do and wish you didn't know because now it's over.
I propose we make a book finishing ritual to cheer us up when we're depressed because that wonderful world we were engulfed in is now gone forever. My ritual suggestions are: eat some junkfood (mcdonalds or cookies or soda), toast the book with some alcohol, um I think that's all I got.
The trick is, the ritual has to be able to be done immediately upon completion of the book and alone - in the sense that you can't count on anyone else but could be in the company of others. Any other suggestions?
