...for the feeling you get when you see a book that's part of a series, which you've been looking for for ages and you find it, and not only is it a matching edition to the ones you already have, it's either on special or you find it at a book fair for a really good price.

If you're REALLY happy about it, *Squee* works, too.

How about "gleek", from glee + geek.

The application seems a bit more widespread, but it's a fairly specific umbrella.

Gleek. I like it.

And it could be nice and high pitched, sort of like a good version of 'eep!'

With a dash of 'yaaaay' thrown in as well of course...

Wow 'gleek' is just perfect. Can see that being handy in many a situation. Well done!
