“Him’s name is Roland, momma. I dream about him, sometimes. Him’s a King too.”

Hard. Ugly. Crying, y’all.

HOME STRETCH.

still chugging along on this. it has really started to pick up in the back half (the standoff sequence was especially harrowing) but unless this goes Full Dark Tower toward the end, i fear I am not going to like this one as much as everybody else seems too.

i won't lie though i got a little choked up when Patrick Danville made his first appearance.

this book is a really strange animal. i am not sure if i should be entertained by it or disgusted.

Okay, so aside from this being the single most triggering book I have ever read, I think I’m starting to really get something out of it. It’s starting to move now and there is a specific kind of dread that I’m getting off it now (ESPECIALLY reading it right now in the Year of Our Old One 2018). King writing older characters is...about has cringy as you expect.
