Best two reviews:
1) - The scary and powerful Doctor Sleep works best when doing its own thing rather than recreating parts of The Shining. (Rating: 85) Read Full Review >
2) - Even those familiar with King’s 2013 follow-up of the same name, more of an absorbing dark fantasy than a horror novel, won’t be prepared for the alchemy of elements cooked up here. (Rating: 80) Read Full Review >
