There are a million reviews and plot breakdowns for IT so I am not going to bother adding another. I'm also tired. This book has been my constant companion through a boatload of crapola in real-life and I did not take notes. I read IT knowing it was long and hoping it would take me away like Calgon ...

It has lots of scary, but also lots of heart. I love the little gang. What a journey this book was.

I have no coherent thoughts after finishing this book, or if I do, they are all jumbled up in my head. I am going to have the biggest book hangover. That ending, though! 4 only because Stephen King does have this odd way of writing certain things, and there was one scene I wasn't personally comforta...

Despite rating this book five stars, I do not think it is perfect. While I do not often agree with the common notion that Stephen King overwrites, his penchant for logorrhea is on full-display in this 1200 page-long novel, released in 1986. There are multiple scenes that could have been cut out (inc...

I was among those who watched this when it came out as a miniseries. I was definitely too young to watch the miniseries, which proved itself when I kept inspecting out bathroom sink for any signs of blood for months afterwards. Anyway, with the movie coming out (which I probably won’t go see), I bec...

I really didn't know what to rate this book. I bounced between 3 and 4 stars multiple times. The pros are that it's a great story, it is intense and sometimes I found myself almost holding my breath wondering what would happen. It's creepy and unsettling and the characters are so fleshed out and wel...

One of my favorite books of all time. You'll feel as if you're friends with the "loser's club" and miss them when the book ends.

I have been listening to this book for a month. I have to say, now that I'm finished, I really miss Bill, Ben, Bev, Richie, Eddie, Mike & Stan. This book is creepy and touching. It is a beautiful story that will scare the pants off you. It examines the differences between the way children see and pr...

The page count on this book was something I found daunting, but I kept hearing that it was one of King's best, so eventually I took the plunge. It started out slower than I expected. Just a quick introduction to Derry and what happened there in 1958 followed by some individual stories of people in 1...
