The Shining, Stephen King

The Shining, Stephen King is about a family who lives in a hotel alone and finds out that this hotel has many secrets in it. In this book characters are solving their problem that aren't always connected to ghosts living in the hotel, mostly those problems are connected to themselves, for example: alcohol problem, problem with controlling themselves, problem with lying and so on.

This book is very interesting, because the problem in this book are talking about humans and their choices which are connected to most of the readers, one of those problems is problem of changing, I think parts of this book which include this problem are very interesting and breathtaking to read. Also this book was written by Stephen KIng, so it is connected to other Stephen King's books and it will be interesting to read if you've already read some of his books. As I said before this book is not for everyone, because it takes too much time to read, because it's pretty long and also if you aren't comfortable in reading horrors "The Shining" may be not the best choice for you.
