Came for Pennywise, stayed for The Losers Club. A heartfelt tale about childhood friends and togetherness. Slow paced but always moving forward. Each character feels real (Beverly and Stan less so) and fun to read about. I didn’t care for depictions of Beverly, and I don’t really believe the sewer scene was necessary.

While this book has its flaws I enjoyed reading it. The characters are lovable and even the evil characters are well written. Pennywise the Clown deserves his place in classic horror monsters.

A bit overlong, and some of the content is questionable to say the least. Still one hell of a ride.
