A review by scientist_reading_world
It by Stephen King

4.0

4.5 Stars.

After seeing the new IT adaptation it was time to read the books. King made an excellent story, sometimes kinda heavy due to all the character, setting and story building, but that is what makes IT so amazing to read. When you start reading King allow you to see what happen in the past and present which is related to IT awakening and kick the story. after that we see how our protagonist are in the present relating also to the past.

During the novel there are interludes where Mike writes about Derry old and dark past which tell to the reader how IT influence and built the city.

The finals battles are simply amazing.

For me i need more information about IT, during the book almost till the end we don't get the full dimension of how powerful IT really is. I would love to learn more about it and to finish some topic that remain open.

I don't know if the end is consensual but it all makes sense if you think why everything makes and what driven them to the places etc.



SPOILER ALERT

Spoiler The entries where IT talks are simply pure magic love to see how IT think and how She fears the losers. but still a few more pages about how can she makes babies and why not kill them more quickly since she fear them so much
