A fascinating series from start to finish. 
 Sure, I wasn't always on board with some of the storyline choices, but I definitely appreciate how well planned and written this was overall. I absolutely loved the very end of the book, although I wonder how my knowing about the future movie affected my perception of it. 
 It took me a while to finish this series, and I don't think I loved any of its books as much as I did the first one, but I still thoroughly enjoyed it. And if I read more Stephen King in the future (which is pretty likely), I'll be looking for signs pointing to the Tower...
