Is it worth sticking with the Dark Tower if I'm not completely into the Gunslinger? (slrpnk.net)

I'm not saying I dislike it but I'm finding it hard to get through and it's incredibly short. I enjoyed the first chapter in Tull and I enjoyed the desert scenes but since then I've been finding it hard to focus on. I like the characters too but it just feels a bit... Boring in places?

Is the entire series like this?

Edit: I've now finished it and I'm reading 11.23.66 but not sure if I should read The Drawing Of The Three after.

100% yes. I tried reading the Gunslinger 3x and only got through it my 3rd try. After completing the series I can confidently say it is my favorite series I've ever read and doubt I'll find a new favorite anytime soon.
