Welcome to Litsy!

It took me about 6 months to get through The Dark Tower Series on audiobook (3 months longer than when I initially read it). I have many thoughts; first and foremost, I wish there were more. Here are my star ratings for each individual book:

The Gunslinger - 4/5
The Drawing of the Three - 4.75/5
The Wastelands - 5/5
Wizard and Glass - 5/5
The Wind through the Keyhole 5/5
Wolves of the Calla -4.5/5
Song of Susannah - 3.5/5
The Dark Tower -4.5/5

Aight, so I finished the series yesterday, and now I‘ve got my in-depth review of it up on YouTube, if anybody wanna check it out. My channel is TH3 F4LC0N and the review is “The Dark Tower: A Flawed Masterpiece”. 😗

Treated myself to this box set!! 😍

#Top20Series #20Series20Days Day 1 I ignored this series for a long time even though I am a huge King fan (judged the book by its cover). A foreword from King in another book stated The Dark Tower Series was one of the best things he has ever written. Needless to say it was beyond anything I could have expected, it is pure genius. The mix of Sci-Fi, magic, time travel and other genres was amazing, I didn‘t want it to end.

#20series20days
The ultimate journey. Loved the series and the characters and the imagination. The ending not so much, I have reconciled myself with it over the years 😁😁.

This series will always be #unforgettable to me. I think it's almost time for a re-read.

Next read is the dark tower series. @hannah-leeloo chose it for me. Here I go babes.

As a kid, I devoured lots of series (BSC, Sweet Valley, Fear Street) but now I can‘t seem to get through them. I‘ll read the first 1 or 2 and then move onto something else for a while and by the time I go back to them, I‘ve forgotten what‘s happening. This is my 4th attempt at The Dark Tower. I like the books but I hate the feeling that I‘m missing details that may be important later so this time I‘m taking notes!

After playing around with this for ages and reading a ton of variations, I‘ve landed here for my #expandedDT reading plan for 2019. I have read the main DT books in the series but have decided delve deeper into the #multiverse. The order is, for the most part, chronological and I‘ve taken a few liberties adding/removing from other suggested lists based on interest and the books I own. 🤞 let‘s see how it goes!

Saw this beauty in Barnes and Noble yesterday and my husband doesn‘t understand why I NEED to have this (since it costs $150). @TheNextBook I clearly need this for our 2019 Dark Tower re-read!!

well good adventure story, veryyyyyyy long almost to the point that it seems that king just wanted to leech of money from dedicated fans waiting for the damn end. Well I ended up leaving the story few years ago.

Owns the above and some on kindle.

#ReadingResolutions | 15: #BookishMap

One short story and three books down. Five more books to go. Really liking them so far. I know, not a stack, but the covers were too nice to stack.

#ReadingResolutions | 5: #FiveStack

1. Do the Dark Tower books count as sci-fi? If so, then those. 😉
2. I have fond memories of playing PacMan at Pizza Hut while waiting for our dinner....Frogger was another good one.
3. Duran Duran all the way.
4. What 80s movie DON‘T I like?? Goonies, 16 Candles, Breakfast Club, Ferris Bueller, Ghostbusters- so many classics.

@JoScho

EDIT- after reading other posts, I can‘t believe some of the stuff I‘d forgotten! I ❤️ the 80s!

LETTER R: ROLLAND. He is one badass character. Seriously one of my favorite characters Stephen King created. I was so excited for the movie, but then when I saw the preview for it I was very disappointed. I still haven't watched it.
#KingAToZ @GarthRanzz

#KingAtoZ @GarthRanzz

R is for "Riddle-De-Dum! Brain-twisters and Puzzles for Everyone!" A book purchased by Jake Chambers in the Dark Tower series, in which riddles play a major role.

#KingAtoZ
O is for Oy, a billy-bumbler and a primary character in the series.
Picture from Comic Vine as I liked it! No artist named.

K is really for KING but since a lot of people have already paid homage to the greatest writer ever (in my opinion), let me go with Roland's Ka-tet. Drawn together by fate, they are bound to each other like family. And during my journey to the Dark Tower AND all the rest of King's multiverse, I would like to think I was part of the Ka-tet as well. Thankee Sai King!!

#KingAtoZ

LETTER D: I had to go with my favorite series - The Dark Tower. I absolutely loved these books. I wish I could read them again for the first time. I will never forget how the last line of the book made me feel.

#KingAToZ @GarthRanzz

Read

1. I grew up on Stephen King. (Yep, I was THAT kid). 2. John Scalzi's Collapsing Empire, Samantha Shannon's The Song Rising, and Min Jin Lee's Pachinko.
3. I love to hate Voldemorte.
4. David Foster Wallace's Infinite Jest. A good friend raved about it because it's supposed to understand addicts and I'm proudly in recovery, but I found it boring and pretentious with a few good quotes.
5. YOU are tagged
#tuesdaytidbits @JenlovesJT47

I know this movie is universally panned, but I had a free Redbox rental. Here goes... 🤷🏻‍♀️

My #bookishgoals and resolutions are to finally get to finish some series I've started or start some series's I've wanted to reads. This is page 1 of like 5 😂 I don't plan to finish them all...just some lol. Also, I plan to do my #booked2018 and #pop18 challenges will (hopefully) all be books from #MountTBR. Fingers crossed I can pull this one off lol

#SeptemBowie #day9 #Changes The changes made to one of the best series I've ever read turned it into a turkey of a movie of epic proportions! As a huge fan of the books, it was almost painful sitting at the drive-in watching them butcher it. Mathew McConaughey as Walter was a joke, I have no idea where the bat cave & body snatcher minions came from & where were the rest of the Ka-Tet? Maddening.

To remind myself what I want to read next. Lol 😆

#SeptemBowie @Marchpane @Cinfhen IdrisElba #Heroes in The Dark Tower. I did not read , but Idris Elbas performance was truely heroic. He did not forget the face of his father. And was a hero with gun & heart ❤️

A picture of our city as we came out from Dark Tower. He really is something SK. He got me again , I think he really gets us from the heart! Gunslinger SK ❤️

Ok Littens myself & the husband are going in there now. Chat later 🎉at the cinema just today

Excited to watch the film! Hoping watch it this weekend! Have you seen it? I'm a fan of the books! If you haven't you really should start the Dark Tower journey 🌹 have a great weekend 🖤 #thedarktower #thegunslinger #stephenking #bibliophile #bookgeek #booknerd #filmtobook #reader #bookporn #bookseries #funko #thedrawingofthethree #thewastelands #constantreader

I've just got home from watching The Dark Tower at the drive-in, I must say I'm very disappointed. It's like they've written a completely different story, slapped in a few elements from the book & called it The Dark Tower! I mean, come on. Matthew McConaughey as Walter? There was nothing about the beams, nothing about the Ka-tet and the Man In Blacks hideout looked like a cross between Batmans cave & Blade Runner. Not impressed😡

One of my life's goal was completed about a year ago when I finished this series. This is by far the best set of books I've ever read. Cannot wait to see the Dark Tower movie #darktower #stephenking #accomplished

And for the piece de resistance... THE DARK TOWER MOVIE...OUT NOW... I am giddy for this one. http://youtu.be/GjwfqXTebIY I have been watching the trailer like a fangirl just waiting for the release...

For #24in48: Some of my favorite book swag is related to The Dark Tower series. Stephen King at his best!
