Author: Stephen King
Genre: Fiction/Horror
Age Category: Adult
Summary: To the children, the town was their whole world. To the adults, knowing better, Derry, Maine, was just their home town: familiar, well-ordered, a good place to live. It was the children who saw - and felt - what made Derry so horribly different. In the storm drains, in the sewers, It lurked, taking on the shape of every nightmare, each person's deepest dread. Sometimes It reached up, seizing, tearing, killing. . .
The adults, knowing better, knew nothing. Time passes and the children grew up, moved away. The horror of It was deep-buried, wrapped in forgetfulness. Until the grown-up children were called back, once more to confront It as It stirred and coiled in the sullen depths of their memories, reaching up again to make their past nightmares a terrible present reality.
My review: 4/5
Stephen King is one of my favorite authors. It was the first book I read by him. There was a lot of back story and King describes places and characters in the book in extreme detail. It was just very slow. I think King should have separated It into two parts: one where the Losers' Club are kids and one where they are adults; like they are doing with the It (2017, 2019) remake.
