A review by mollyadelman
The Shining by Stephen King

5.0

my heart is RACING even tho i knew the story! the book feels so much kinder than the movie, somehow optimistic but pragmatic. feel so much more (both good and bad feelings) for jack, he is so fleshed out in this!

also INSANITY how all of the iconic shining lines/visuals are not in the book…stanny just doing it

actually for real this book fucks
