You NEED to read Dr Sleep. It's the sequel to the shining and it's not really scary but it's sooooo intriguing. It was written like 30 years later and it's written from Danny's perspective through the years. It's a brilliant sequel! The Tommyknockers is a scary book! I read it more than half my life ago and still remember a lot of it! Fairy Tale was AMAZING IMO. It is in both this world and in a "fairy tale" so you have a fair bit of fantasy but it's not really scary, it's slower and yet full of action. I cried during it a ton and thought I was broken 🤣🤣 I've been reading King since I was 13! I know you'll love these recommendations esp since they're not really in the horror genre, more mystery and reflective!

@alexandraroselyn 10 месяцев назад

I just bought Fairy Tale!! I’ll have to look into Dr Sleep now thank you!!

@MarisaAndChew 10 месяцев назад

@@alexandraroselyn you'll love Dr Sleep IMO! King wrote it BC so many ppl asked him whatever happened to Danny! King was also an alcoholic when he wrote the shining but sober when writing Dr Sleep so while he's on point with the details we really see a genuine growth in writing and the characters since Jack, Danny's dad, suffered from alcoholism! 💞

Whether or not you like Stephen King, you cannot ignore that the man can write. I love most of his books and have been reading him for years. I think you would've loved IT - except for one particular scene that we don't talk about. Thanks for the glimpse into the Read House. Fascinating!

Yea that scene makes NO sense to the story except for the fact king WANTED to write it. 🤮 I’d bet money after he is gone we will come to find out he actually was a pedo. I hope I’m wrong but no sane person would repeatedly put such content in books especially with no ties to the plot.

@heathermccreary8933 10 месяцев назад

I finally read The Shining after I picked up Dr Sleep and figured I'd better read The Shining first. I was so heartbroken for that little boy at the end that it took me another year to start Dr Sleep. I just didn't want to see him hurt anymore. Powerful character building. If I get over to Chattanooga, definitely going to check out the Read Hotel! Wonderful video!

@samanthaaiello 10 месяцев назад

@@alexandraroselyn yes, I just read The Collector, and it was sooooo scary. Until it wasn’t, right at the end. I think that might be a thing with Middle grade. They have to give it a happy conclusion to minimize the scariness at the end. But the book was so scary up to that point.

@Jeanette_Medina 10 месяцев назад

A middle grade book I read years ago that took me by surprise by how creepy and sinister some of the scenes were was Serafina and the Black Cloak. I couldn't believe there were kids books that were so creepy. 😅 It is in fact a series, and the setting of the first book is the Biltmore Estate in North Carolina.

@krisprepolec5616 10 месяцев назад

I love both the book and the movie on their own merits. There are iconic moments from the movie that are not in the book. I like the ending of the movie, but I like how Wendy and Mr. Halloran are treated better in the book. I would suggest reading Doctor Sleep, and then watching both movies. It was cool how the movies are their own universe, and can be enjoyed on their own.

One of my all time favorite books. I hate the movie. I think people that love the movie never read the book. The story is about alcoholism and how it can take over a person. The movie had Jack crazy from The very beginning not a descent into madness. I’ve read the book 3 times. The sequel book Dr Sleep is very good as well and Stephen King wrote the sequel to his book. Danny is grown up and Halloran is back. Highly recommend. Great review.

It's so interesting to me that you went into this book not having seen the film, memes or anything else about it. I haven't read the book yet, I'm honestly not a huge King fan, I think most of his writing is overly bloated & obnoxious, which amuses me, cause I love him as a person, he's someone I'd wanna be besties with. But the film, omg, is perfection. So I'm interested to see if I enjoy the book as much as the movie.

Stephen King is one of my favorite authors and The Shining is one of my favorite books by him (so far), may even be my favorite. I can understand your point of Jack being disrespectful towards his family but I think that's not the main point of the book and I really didn't focus on that so strongly while reading. Yes, he doesn't treat his wife or little son the way they should be treated. But the book is much more than just that and I wish people realize that. The Shining is, in my opinion, Stephen King at hist best (even tho I haven't read all of his works, not even close).

@katym657 10 месяцев назад

Don't know if someone mentioned this already, but Doctor Sleep was published within the past few years and it's about Danny as an adult and his "gift" of the shining. I still have yet to read it, but if you're interested in the shining it sounds like other people enjoy that book.

@hollyc4624 10 месяцев назад

Stephen King is a brilliant writer. He has some hits and misses, like anyone. When he was heavily into substance abuse were his worst years. But overall, he is incredible. And if you think about it, the telling of the descent into madness from the victim of that, is far more terrifying than any traditional haunted house type story. Try the Holly Gibney books, Mr. Mercedes onto Holly. Dark and twisted but the writing is stellar.

Lately I’ve read his Frankenstein series which is ok but not his best; Fear Nothing that again was ok but had some very annoying parts; and just finished Icebound this morning. It was good but I was expecting horror and it was a thriller. Next year I may have to kick off spooky season early rereading his old stuff instead of trying new ones so I know they’re good.

I love Stephen King and have read a bunch of his books! If you want a great Stephen King fantasy book, check out Fairy Tale or The Eyes of the Dragon!

P.S. Doctor Sleep is about Danny.

I read this because so many people put it on their "scariest books of all time" lists. After reading, I could not disagree more! Instead it is one of the most devastatingly sad books I've ever read.
