I'm so happy to say that I finally read IT, I wanted to read this book since I first seen the movies years ago. Once I've had a nice but weird dream after watching the movies, that Pennywise was my friend and now however unusual it might sound it feels like IT truly became my friend. That they all became my friends and I'm in Derry with them. It's like I can smell the circus and see the balloons. I absolutely loved this novel, I can't even express how brilliant of a time I've had reading it. I started on my Kindle then put on the audiobook as well which was remarkable. The narrator did a fantastic job on the voices and making the whole experience even more special.
The novel was so good, Stephen King is definitely one of my all time favorite authors, his writing style is perfect, IT was so brutal, scary sometimes and also funny in places. I had so much fun, I couldn't stop reading it and towards the end I just didn't wanted to finish it. My favorite scene both in the movie and the book were the bathroom scene I loved how detailed it was written down I could picture the whole scene so well.
If you love horror then please don't hesitate to pick up this brilliant novel if you haven't already. It's a long one but honestly I could definitely read a 1000 more pages of IT!
