This has got to be my favourite book of the series so far. There are three things I discovered whilst reading this...
1. I want one of these fictitious Billy-Bumblers
2. Blaine really is a pain.
3. In my opinion this is one of King's best works.

I liked the pace of it and loved how I experienced the adventure from everybody's different perspectives.

I cannot believe I put off reading this series for so long! The first one was so confusing for me so I avoided the second one for a year. Then I watched a recap video on YouTube and started on [b:The Drawing of the Three|5094|The Drawing of the Three (The Dark Tower, #2)|Stephen King|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1370918050l/5094._SY75_.jpg|2113248].

It wasn't quite as good as the other books... but still a worth-while read.

I'm blown away by this, it's so insane (back to when king used too much drugs lmao) and that ending??? I need to read the 4th book as soon as possible and I LOVE the characters, even the romance between two of them, not cheesy at all

These books just keep getting more and more awesome. I can't wait until Mike Flanagan brings Blaine the Mono to the screen.
