Dr Sleep sounds awesome, much more interested after hearing speak in Savanna. In Virginia when he read at the mason event - that portion of the story didnt quite gel for me. but cant wait to see!
Dr Sleep is my #1 must have book for 2013. When he read the excerpt in Savannah and brought up Room 217 i was freaking out! I still cant stay on the 2nd floor of any hotel!
Don't forget that Jack's nickname for Danny in The Shining was "Doc".

Having read the introductory except (complete with the woman in Room 217 making an appearance) I'm panting for this to come out - as regards the title, I guess whether it's appropriate or not will depend on the context of the title in relation to the content ????
It's not really the title that seems strange to me, but the idea of the sequel--only because The Shining is my favorite King book and I never wondered what became of Danny. I wanted him to remain a teenager, with the promise of a better life with no more incidents of shining ahead of him. But I may change my mind after reading it.
I don't think it's a great title, but I have no problems with it. Though it does make me think more of Insomnia than The Shining or anything vampire related.
