Hi,

I’m new to Lemmy so idk if there’s spoiler marks or not so beware spoilers for dark Tower series books 1-6:

I wanted to share with you all that I’ve been reading the series and enjoying it IMMENSELY. like holy shit they’re so good. I absolutely love fantasy and Roland’s world and quest has totally enthralled me. The Gunslinger was probably the hardest for me mostly because I felt it was slow and I had no clue wtf was happening lol. I’d say so far my favorite has been Wolves of the Calla (which I read in a week, hot damn) closely followed by The Waste Lands, then The Drawing of the Three, Song of Susannah, Wizard and Glass, and Gunslinger last. I’ve loved them all though.

Anyways I work night shift and I will often read when things are slow, and so I finished Song of Susannah this morning. I didn’t realize until my husband commented on the date that TODAY is June 19th!!! How fucking weird lol!! I finally find out some of the significance of 19 and 1999 because that’s the date of Kings accident, and of course June 19th 1977 is when Roland and Eddie go see Stephen King in the book! I feel like ka is messing with me that I happened to finish the book, and specifically this book, which ENDS with Kings accident excerpt of that date. Wow lol. Anyways just wanted to share and if you comment please please be kind and don’t spoil anything from the final book, The Dark Tower, for me!!

Long days and pleasant nights!
