I guess I write this review for one purpose, to promote the many great books by Stephen King. The shining is but one and it was good enough to have two movies made from it. If you have never read Stephen King but have a flair for good horror (not all his books are horror) books you should give him a try. I have read everything he has ever written and some books twice (including the stand). If you don't read, check out a King movie. Stephen King is master story teller with the ability to drag you in and make you part of the book. I could go on but it is time to read a good book. Maybe you should give one a try!
Great book! Came so fast :)

I just received the book today. I love Stephen King's writings since he keeps you on the edge of your seat with his horror books. Once you begin reading his books you just cant seem to put them down. Sometimes before you know it you have read through the entire night just to get to the end of a book of his. I am sure this book will be just as good as the movie he made. I have watched The Shining numerous times and it has never failed to scare the daylights out of me when I watch it. I feel that Stephen King is one of the top rated writers of all times and has done a marvelous job through the years with his writings.
The story is fascinating, holds my attention with each sentence. The movie was great but the book is really better.
