The Gunslinger

Stephen King

Tattooed on my heart, reading this series was the first time I ever remember crying for a character. From Stephen King’s The Gunslinger (Dark Tower Book 1): “The man in black fled across the desert, and the gunslinger followed.” https://t.co/z4kLRIWLD7 https://t.co/0kAwpyxZKo

@natallman Tender Is the Flesh by Agustina Bazterrica is spectacular if you like visceral gore with a purpose. Children of Chicago by Cina Pelayo is a stunning blend of myth and horror. Inspection by Josh Malerman. The Harry Hole series by Jo Nesbo is fantastic Nordic horror/crime.

The Dark Tower IV: Wizard and Glass

Stephen King

Had a dream that Roland Deschain set my book on fire, so I think it’s time for a Gunslinger re-read. Wizard and Glass will always be in my top five favorite Stephen King. https://t.co/ZpIy0wyRI2

@PerpetuaAlma @theferocity @PoetEllenBass @mishacollins @adalimon @fannychoir That Kim Addonizio collection is so so good. Reading another Ellen Bass now (Like a Beggar), but I think Mules is my favorite. Excellent list of recs.
