And finally the much awaited review of Dr. Sleep. This is the sequel to Stephen King's The Shining and is focused on the grown-up Dan Torrance. Dan discovers that there are others just like him. He meets Abra Stone, a girl with abilities much stronger than his. Unfortunately for Abra a tribe of RV travelers known as the True Knot know about her as well. They take steam from the children who have the shining. Their eyes are set on Abra and they won't stop until they have her.
Honestly I liked The Shining a lot better. Dr. Sleep was interesting and it was nice to see what became of Dan Torrance. But the story was lacking something and I couldn't quite put my finger on it. One thing I really loved about the story was the theme of redemption and the idea that we all have the power to change.
