Finished this one today on my errands. I always love #StephenKing, but again, this one hits so close to home in our messed-up world. Ugh! It's scary! Excited for this movie! #BookToScreen

Bookwormjillk I haven't gotten to this one yet. I need to because the library is going to take it back soon. 2d

BookwormAHN I wonder how the movie is going to turn out? I know King hated the first one 2d

BarkingMadRead @BookwormAHN the previews look awesome 2d

ElizaMarie From the previews of the movie, it looks like this one will be more in line with the book. But.. I have to confess, I haven't seen the Arnold Swartzinger one in forever- just remember hearing it wasn't closely following the book.

I am almost done with this one, been using it as an audio commute. 1d

Bklover I had forgotten that there was a movie! I don‘t think I‘ve seen it. This is probably one of my least favorite of SK‘s stories. 1d

I visited this one 7 years ago. But I figured I would listen to it for both the #LosersClub and for the upcoming movie. (Also, I needed a new #AudioCommute #AudioChore Book)

The Dark Tower, the Gunslinger | Stephen King

so-so

In my reread of this book, I appreciated King's worldbuilding, but I'm not sure the book stands up well on its own. I had liked book 2 much better and am looking forward to reading it and the rest of the series with #LosersClub.
#KingFromTheBeginning @BarkingMadRead

BarkingMadRead It‘s definitely my least fave of the series 1mo

ElizaMarie Didn't have this one on the shelf! Kinda surprised I could have sworn I had this one. I had just passed it up from a used book store too! I might do Audio so my hubby and I can listen together (to prepare for the movie) 1mo

BarkingMadRead @BookwormAHN I deleted your comment by mistake! And I totally agree. This one was setting up for the whole series, but it‘s definitely geared towards younger guys 1mo

Julies_Bookshelf_Adventures This series is my favorite of Stephen Kings, especially with all the references to his other works found throughout. This book does a pretty good job with introducing the new world and concepts, though I like the air of mystery and that the reader doesn‘t get a huge amount of information about the history of the world and characters (edited) 1mo

BarkingMadRead @Julies_Bookshelf_Adventures Yessss I love all of the Easter eggs throughout the series! 1mo

Bookwormjillk I‘m almost done. Somehow I had forgotten that most of the characters aren‘t there yet. It really is amazing how much he set up in this book though. He just kind of drops you in the middle of it and somehow it all works. 1mo

Karkar I think this one is much better when you are rereading it versus the first time. So much more falls into place and it is not as boring to me as the first time around. 1mo

kwmg40 I'd read the first two books several years ago and I remember liking the second one much better. I decided to reread this one (and will the second one when we get to it) before continuing the series. The book sets up the world well but plot-wise, it doesn't stand so well on its own. 1mo

Bookwormjillk One of my earliest memories is asking my Dad what he was reading and him teaching me what rabies was....

I thought this was okay, but it dragged a bit. I'm pretty sure I've read it before, but didn't remember much. 2mo

BarkingMadRead @Bookwormjillk this one always gets me because it‘s something that could totally happen 2mo

BookwormAHN I remember reading this in 4th grade and the first few pages terrified me but I also remember me and my mother getting in an argument on how to spell damn and me showing it to her in the book 😸 2mo

BookwormAHN I also agree that this is the most realistic of his terrors and all dogs should be vaccinated for rabies. 2mo

BookwormAHN Also the monster/man in the closet is the same as the serial killer in The Dead Zone. 2mo

BarkingMadRead @BookwormAHN yesssss I love a good Easter egg! 2mo

5feet.of.fury @BookwormAHN lol for the vocal lesson 😂 and I agree, Cujo didn‘t want to be a bad dog. The whole thing is so upsetting. 2mo

KathyWheeler I ended up feeling bad for Cujo as well as for the people in this novel. It does drag a little bit though. 2mo

AllDebooks This one hit me hardest. I thought the pace was goid and added to the tension. My heart broke for Cujo. I was incensed at Tad's parents for not being more supportive. Both of them had the heebie jeebies around the cupboard and noticed the awful smell. There is no rational explanation, but I would not be putting my child in that room. 2mo
