The characters flaws are somewhat the main focus because Pennywise rely’s on the fear of children.

Ich kann es nicht glauben, dass ich es geschafft habe dieses Buch zu lesen. Es hat mich so lange eingeschüchtert, nur wegen der Länge. 

Gekauft habe ich es vor allem wegen den neuen Filmen. Dass so viel der Handlung geändert oder gestrichen wurde, war mir nicht bewusst, aber es war eine sehr gute Entscheidung. 
Einiges in dem Buch ist nicht besonders gut gealtert und das haben die Filme schön angepasst. 

Alles in allem war es eine spannende Geschichte, die sich hier und da etwas gezogen hat. Dennoch war es bisher das spannendste Stephen King Buch, dass ich gelesen habe. 

Schaut aber auf jeden Fall in die Content Warnings bevor ihr es lest! Es ist sehr grafisch in allen Teilen!
