+
+This code defines a POST endpoint at `/books` that creates a new book entry in an in-memory list called `books`. It takes the `title` and `author` as required parameters, and an optional `description`. It generates a unique `book_id` using `uuid.uuid4()` and appends a new dictionary to the `books` list with the provided data. The response includes a success message, the generated `book_id`, and the expected `method` and `_verb` fields.
