    Pet Sematary is far scarier than The Shining for me personally. I enjoyed The Shining, but it's definitely not a top 5 King book for me. I've been trying to think if it would even make my top 10 King.

    The Shining is my favorite SK novel after 'It', I've probably reread it the most as well. If there's one King novel I can see being remembered as a literary classic a hundred years from now it's this one.
