"It"

(09-08-2017, 10:09 PM)jason Wrote: It was the first Stephen King novel I ever read. I'd read Skeleton Crew though. Anyway... I couldn't believe how quickly I devoured It. At 14 years old it was the longest book I had ever read. It took me 3-4 days. I get to the ending, and I couldn't believe how bad it was. As I read more of his stuff, I discovered that this wasn't an outlier.

I think the first of his I read was either Cycle of the werewolf or The Gunslinger. Can't remember which. I love the way he tells a story (as somebody mentioned, most of his stuff is about how people interact with obstacles, not just stories about monsters). But, man, he's got a bad habit of crap endings. Or totally building up characters and then sort of just writing them out of a story. Dark Tower fans can probably relate there.

Anyway, hoping to go see the new movie sometime next week. My son went to see it tonight with friends, will get his take. He's a big King fan.
