    $book_args = array(
    'post_type'        => 'book',
    'posts_per_page'   => -1,
    'meta_key'         => 'name_ebook',
    'meta_value'       => 'Paintree'
);

You're not using $book as a variable in your $loop_args, but as a string $book. Just remove the quotes around the variable in the args and it should work (assuming get_post_meta returns something and not just empty string).

$book = get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'name_ebook', true );
$loop_args = array(
  'post_type' => 'book',
  'order'     => 'ASC',              
  'meta_key'  => $book, // no quotes needed here
  'orderby'   => 'meta_value',
);
