The Shining

It was boring, except for the last 15 chapters. The setting and premise were intriguing for a horror novel, but I wish King had made it much shorter.

The moving hedges, chapters dedicated to wasps, the drawn-out history of the Overlook, and the really slow build-up were aspects that I found boring and disliked about the book. It was my first Stephen King read, and I was absolutely disappointed.
