    Holy crap, I don't know if I can choose...these 2 are in a 3-way tie for favorite King book. I desperately want to re-read both of them...

    Ended up going with TDOTT, but damn that was tough.

    I have to say, whoever was the one vote who has never read one or both titles, I hope it's because you've just started reading the series and haven't gotten that far yet If not, you don't know what you're missing.

    Voted for Drawing, naturally.

    I know, it's Elazansky!! I so hope he will read The Drawing soon - I can't wait for him to get the greatest surprise of his life!

    Drawing blew me away when I read it. No other DT novel did.

    Finally decided on Drawing. The scene with Eddie at Balthazar's alone gets it for me, I think.

    This will probably decide which Dark Tower novel places higher in final standings.

    I had already voted for Waste Lands, but with the response to Drawing I am going to have to do a re-read of this book. Perhaps I judged to harshly. I had previously put this as my least favorite of the series.

    can it be that you mistakenly voted TDoTT, but now want your vote to be changed for TWL? I can do it, you know...

    I never noticed that before. Thanks!

    FWIW, I voted for TWL.
    Hearts are tough, she said, most times hearts don't break, and I'm sure that's right . . . but what about then? What about who we were then? What about hearts in Atlantis?
