I was probably one of the people who immediately fan-girled
when news came out of a sequel to The
Shining. I was late to the shining reading game, having read it just a
little over 2 years ago. However, that meant the story was still fresh in my
mind. My brother-in-law got me Doctor
Sleep and I couldn’t be happier, over the next week every chance I got I
caught up with Danny- not so little anymore though sometimes just as naïve-
Torrance. Summary and review after the jump (spoilers if you have yet to read The Shining)

Dream a little Dream... a review of Doctor Sleep by Stephen King
Sorry It's been a while. I was out of the country for a wedding and it took a while to get back in the habit of things. But i digress.

Shine on- A review of Stephen King's The shining
I remember seeing Stanley Kubrick’s The Shining for the first
time when I was probably around 13. It was my first foray into the Overlook
Hotel and I was hooked, it would take more than a decade for me to finally pick
up Stephen King’s Novel that inspired the film, and while I was expecting the
usual cut corners, I wasn’t prepared for how different the narratives would be.
