Reading Response

The book I'm currently reading is called The Gunslinger by Stephen King. It is a book about a gunslinger in a post apocalyptic world. So far I have really taken a liking for this book due to the very vulgar and crude writing style. It really feels like someone has just walked through a desert chasing a shadow that might not be real. The amount of detail that every book wants to have but doesn't always achieve.
An example of the details in this book would be when the Gunslinger walks into town and tells the man he has a mule. At first the many doesn't actually see the Gunslinger and just thinks hes a newcomer. When he turns around and sees the guns at his waste his tone changes and he starts to shake with fear. This makes me feel like I'm right there in the scene.
