I don't even know what to think or feel. I feel so much and so little. Like omg I can't believe that's how it ends. It's so sad.
I love all of the characters I feel like I've spent so much time with them in this series, especially since I listened to the audiobook version. And I love the ending with sussannah Ed Jake and Oy. Roland's ending is so cruel though. It makes me so sad to think about.
I do wish mordred was a bit more powerful though he died in a lame way.
I just can't believe how many times Stephen tried to make us think Roland would die for sure and not make it. And honestly I think that Roland dying would have been a happier ending for him. Death is so much better than the hell he is going through.
I'm having some existential horror which I think was the goal.
I plan to reread the series again as ebooks because listening to books and reading are both different and I want to see it all again with prior knowledge and also experience it a different way.
I won't start immediately though. I want to marinate for a bit. I was so locked in and now it's just over but it also isn't over because it's never over. I feel like I'm being mind fucked.
I won't lie, the dark tower series has lost me in a few places, but it's always managed to get me locked in again. And I was never more locked in than the end of the last book. So much build up and I was so there for it.
I've got some feelings to work through.
Well done on reaching the Tower, and yes, it is an emotional wrecking ball, just as it is supposed to be. There is hope in the end though, it might come through somewhat once the existential dread subsides.

I was referring to the Horn of Eld in book 7, I really doubt there’ll be a whole new cycle unfortunately. Amazing as that would have been…
