It took forever to read this book. And it's not because it was awful. It was good. I mostly liked it. But it was intense. I could only read about 50 pages in one sitting and then I needed to take a break. And it was also a little weird with all the talk of steam and cycling and "they're like vampires, but not". I mean, that's typical Stephen King fare, but it felt like a reduction of what "the shining" is, and that I didn't like. Overall, though, this is a solid ride in King's amusement park of horrors...but probably not one I'd ride again.
