I have just found out they opened up a pop-up library about a 10-minute walk from me since our main library was closed due to not being a safe building. So I will have to check that out one day soon so I can get back into reading again.


So sad that so many libraries these days are closing, but nice to see them doing what they can to keep them going!

I think what Dong is saying is that the building that houses her local library is closed temporarily until it is made earthquake proof.

Libraries do not really close in NZ as they are funded by local and central government.

Dark Tower: The Gunslinger - The Journey Begins.

Currently reading Dark Tower: The Gunslinger - The Way Station.

These are graphic novels based on the Dark Tower series by Stephen King and I have re read these for possibly the 3rd or 4th time.

The actual graphic novels are of high quality for an adult graphic novel. The artists have nailed the imagery for what depicts the Mid-World scenery and things such as hallucinations that are extremely hard to showcase in a graphic novel.

Robin Furth deserves huge kudos for his adaptation of Dark Tower that add questions between parts of the original story from Stephen King. He brings the what ifs? in between and isn't afraid to take the more risky approach there.

I hope Stephen King and Robin Furth are consulting with the directors and production managers of the Dark Tower T.V series that has begun in Crotia as it's their vision that will help bring the t.v show to life.

Ive read the first 3 novels in the Dark Tower series a number of years ago.

I own 7 books in the series but before I carry on I need to start reading them all again from the start, and put aside time for reading.

SK is by far my favourite author. The Dark Tower series is great but my favourite novel of his is probably The Stand.

As for the graphic novels you are reading, I have seen them and yes they are very good.
