There are still aspects of King's writing that are still sexist, racist, and ableist, so I can't give it the 5 stars it might have had without these inclusions. Compared to The Shining, this book does better in a lot of ways since I couldn't stop reading this 500+pg book.

in Doctor Sleep’s defence, I absolutely loved Abra and the other hero characters were all pretty likeable while the antagonists were disgusting and I wanted them gone. so characters were great but the plot just wasn’t really there for me.
