I have not always been a Stephen King fan. Wait, that's not entirely true. I have always been a fan of the man himself and what he does for the writing community at large. There are stories that I love and stories that I just cannot wade through (I'm looking at you, Tommyknockers).
The Shining was always a favorite, however. Like many other people in the book-reading world, I regularly think about that story. (Shadows in your room? Weird intuition? Staying a hotel?) Having a chance to dive headfirst back into the Shining and the life of Danny Torrence was EPIC.
This one is highly recommended. I was hooked before page 50.
In fact, if you haven't read The Shining it's worth reading that one just to get the chance to read this one.
Oh and I finished the book by going back and reading the last few paragraphs at the end of the second-to-last section. I believe that was the perfect way to end the book (but I acknowledge that I'm a softie).
Have you read Doctor Sleep? I'd love to know what you think. Drop me a comment!
