This is the first of a new series of posts that I will be doing throughout the summer. I am looking at different books that I read for how they write the story, specifically focusing on what kind of sentences they use, how they describe characters' appearances, and just anything that sticks out to me. So, for this first post, I'm going to start with Stephen King's The Gunslinger. Image Description: An image of the book cover for Stephen King's The Gunslinger, the first book of The Dark Tower series. The image shows a figure dressed like a cowboy wearing a wide-brimmed hat and a coat that goes down to his ankles, holding a gun, he's looking down at a crow that is perching on a pile of bones. This figure is standing in the middle of an orange red desert with a sandstorm beginning behind him. On the bottom right, there is a keyhole. In the far background, there is a tower standing alone. At the top, the text reads, "#1 New York Times Bestseller Stephen King The Dark Tower 1 The Gunslinger." At the bottom, the text reads, "A Major Motion Picture Starring Idris Elba and Matthew McConaughey."
