BEST BOOK I HAVE EVER READ! I have been reading the shining for about 6 months and am only half way through it so decided to pick up something fast paced to get me out of my slump. It took me 4 hours to read this book and I did not put it down once. You think you know what is going to happen be trust me, you are 100% wrong. Oh what I would do yo read it all over again for the first time.
