A review by anastaciaknits
The Shining by Stephen King

adventurous slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.25

Book started out strong but got so boring by the 3/4 mark. I normally enjoy King’s long-winded-ness but this was never ending repetitious garbage. And I couldn’t stand the FMC. Husband is an abusive alcoholic and she chooses to stay with him.
