I finally read this book. It is sooo good! It has so many eerie moments that gave me goosebumps. I can only find time to read before bed, so you can imagine how those nights were for me. I had the feeling that someone was watching!The characters are impossible not to love. Danny is sweet, and very k...
Part of the reason I'm rereading all of King's books in chronological order is to watch the progression of a creative mind. I believe The Shining is King's strongest piece, his most well-rounded achievement. Fantastic opening, amazing character development, truly terrifying scenes, and one epic endi...
I'm going to laugh at myself. WHAT WAS I THINKING to want to read this? I couldn't even get pass 2% my reading and already I scared shitless, left alone the remaining. I can't do this, chickened out.

It terrified me, genuinely terrified me, to the point where this is the first time I've re-read it since. And it's just terrified me again. I've read a shed-load of horror in my tim...
I've read many of Stephen King's books (more than 15, less than 20) and the one I enjoyed most on the first reading was Danse Macabre.
