The Shining

This is a reread from when I was a kid. I got so much more from the story this time – it's the difference between being closer to Danny's age or close to Jack and Wendy's ages.

Going to say better than the movie, because this focused on Jack's struggle, as if it actually is a struggle, as opposed to Nicholson being off-his-rocker from page 1. Wendy is a much stronger character. You get why a child would initially fear his parents divorcing more than he would the scary hotel. So many great moments that didn't make the movie, and made the reader care. And a different ending.
