Every Fall for the past 10 years the club has read a Stephen King novel. And we are running out of the short ones. lol. This year we are going to read (or listen to) one of his best, a true classic, The Shining. The original book length was 477 pages, but it looks like over the years the font has increased in size, and the margins got wider. So don't let the page count worry you if you get a modern version. The audio book is 15 hours if that helps.
From Amazon: "Jack Torrance’s new job at the Overlook Hotel is the perfect chance for a fresh start. As the off-season caretaker at the atmospheric old hotel, he’ll have plenty of time to spend reconnecting with his family and working on his writing. But as the harsh winter weather sets in, the idyllic location feels ever more remote . . . and more sinister. And the only one to notice the strange and terrible forces gathering around the Overlook is Danny Torrance, a uniquely gifted five-year-old."
