I chose the book The Gunslinger by Stephen King. One of the main reasons I chose to read this book is because I have read a couple other books of Stephen King and like his writing style. Two other books I've read by him are, Thinner and Insomnia. I feel like the way he writes helps keep the plot interesting throughout the whole book. However, it also doesn't move too fast so you don't get confused about what's happening. I also like the way he tends to end many of his books.
I also liek reading fantasy fiction. I have read the book Hyperion which I've heard is like the Dark Tower Series. Since I really enjoyed Hyperion I thought I would also enjoy The Gunslinger. Hyperion was about a group of people traveling to the Time Tombs. The Dark Tower series is like this, however in the Gunslinger it's a single person and he is traveling to the Dark Tower.
Another reason I chose this book is my mom, dad, and older brother have all recommended it to me. My brother says the series that this book is part of (The Dark Tower Series) is Stephen King's best work. I liked reading some other books he has recommended to me so I decided to read this one too.
