New York, Apr 17 (PTI) Actress Emma Roberts says she became obsessed with Stephen King's novel "The Shining" while she was working in the TV series "American Horror Story".
The 26-year-old actress, who is a self-confessed book lover, says she always prepares for every character she portrays after a thorough book reading, reported Elle.com.
"When I was doing 'American Horror Story', I was reading a lot of Stephen King and became obsessed with 'The Shining'.
And then I also read 'Shutter Island'. Books are a really fun way to get yourself in a certain mindset or mood as an actress," says Roberts.
