The best Stephen King book I have ever read. Yes, I know the Stand was excellent and the Dark Tower saga was as well. Still, the Shining stands, for me, as King's best book.

Oh my heavens this was scary. I could not read it at night. However, I loved it. Very involved and fascinating. There is a scene where dad is outside and bushes creep up on him. Scared me to death, but I had to keep reading. Great work by Mr. King.
