Dark Tower Series Group Read

[Tracy]

Yes, it seems like we are all struggling, but like mrbooks said, let's enjoy the journey. I'm enjoying the Dark Tower Series, so I may be behind, but I will finish. I'm trying to keep up with the chronological reading of King with the group too, but I'm behind there as well. I finished 'Salem's Lot, so I need to read The Shining. I'm going to skip The Stand for now, so hopefully I'll catch up to the group. I plan on reading it at some point though. It's been years since I've read it, and it was one of my favorites. Now, I can't remember much of what happens though. :) That will make it a good read though.

That's true - good point!

Awesome novels though..."

This series is one of my favorites. The last time I read it was in 2012. It never gets old.

2012 - not particularly that long ago. That certainly speaks in volumes as to the quality of the saga.

The Stand is one of my favorite books. I will probably skip as well since I just re-read not to long ago.

Yes, this is turning into quite a juggling act. I haven't kept up on the dark tower at all. Too bad, because I wanted to go through the whole series especially Wolves of the Calla and the books that follow. And now the Stand - which I read just last year. And then there are other books people have asked me to read. In some cases, they have to take priority. I need a better plan. Maybe I should add a book on time management to the list. :-)

It's a beautiful quandary to be in, but a quandary all the same.

You could Nick the only problem would be making the time to find the time to add a book on time management. Then you have to juggle it into your reading schedule. Do like I do Eni meanie miney moe. LOL

To make the time to find the time to add the time to read a book on time... I think I've got it. No thanks. After I finish my current two reads I'm just going right to Wolves.

Nick,if you just read The Stand last year, I would skip it and contribute to thread if I felt compelled.

That’s my plan.

I actually write out a list of books to read for the month. It’s the only way to keep track of group reads I intend to read and ARCs.

Sometimes I won’t vote on a group read if none of the books are already on my TBR shelf. Otherwise I would only be reading group reads. LOL

I do the same thing. It's the only way I can keep track of all the group reads.
