Welcome to the second episode of Grown-Up Book Report, a podcast where two snarky librarians read each other's book recommendations. In this episode, Lisa - the horror lover - made Carly read The Shining by Stephen King. The Shining was originally published in 1977 and became a film starring Jack Nicholson and Shelley Duval in 1980.
Description: 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.
