buddy read with Sha and Andrea. 
 prepare yourselves for creepy gifs. 
 And the red death held sway over all. 
 This book is insidious. 
 It creeps into your mind, slowly, carefully. The Overlook torments not just the characters on the pages, but the reader, hooked and engrossed and unable to put it down. King's writing builds it up slowly to the final show down between one little boy and the hotel that wants to destroy everything he holds dear. 
 And I loved every minute of it. Even when I was creeped out and scared.
