Book Worm

Before Midnight: a retelling of the Cinderella story - hmmm, I prefer the whole Cinderella incognito thing and the prince finding her.  It was only vaguely touched on in the book. It was more about the boy her father had stolen when he was a child - who turned out to be the Princes identical elder twin; the stepmother and sisters being part of Cindies estranged fathers plot to depose the king, and well, eh...

Stephen King time...  Juliette and I are reading The Shining.  Stephen King is putting out the sequel later this year - I think its called Doctor Sleep, and is a followup on the young boy, Danny, who is one of the main characters from the The Shining. It seems to be about a haunted hotel that gets cutoff from the rest of creation during Winter, and its affect on alcoholics, oh and a little boy who can read  minds.
I remember only the Simpsons Episode where this novel was taken on - oh sorry echm, The Shinning.  Ooh and The Black Sabbath lyrics
Black Sabbath The Shining found on http://batlyrics.com/the_shining-lyrics-black_sabbath.html

The Shining
There's a man who sees all there is to see
What the future holds for all
As the days grow dark with the grim and final warning
Beware of the ones with invisible friends
They will steal into your mind
And all too soon the signs begin to show
Rise up to the shining Live long live now
Rise up to the shining Don't be blind by fools again
Fools again

As the pages turn and the story's told
From the visions he's seen
The house on the hill
With the haunted eyes that call
Noone laughed as madness came out
To play it's game
If you stay too long you'll finally go insane

Rise up to the shining
Live long live now
Rise up to the shining
Don't be blind by fools again
Fools again

Bells will take their toll
On your way
There's no way we're born to shine
Before our time, all your life
You're on your own
Lonely road
Lost in a time
Let the light lead your way
To the golden throne
It's the only way

Rise up to the shining
Live long live now
Rise up to the shining
Don't be blind by fools again
Rise up to the shining
Live long live now
Rise up the shining
Don't be blind by fools again

Oh rise up, to the shining
Wise up they're gonna steal your mind
Rise up, the house is gonna haunt you
No one laughed, no one cried
You stayed too long
You're finally gonna stay
