IT by Stephen King.
Have you ever read a Stephen King novel? Pretty scary. I actually couldn't finish IT because it freaked me out so much. You see, I've seen the movie. The movie is actually why I greatly, deeply, and irrevocably don't like being near a clown. Or street drains. I hate street drains. When I was little I used to go on walks with my Grandmother. She lived in a really nice neighborhood with sidewalks (sidewalks aren't common where I live) and street drains just like the ones in the movie. I always made sure I walked above the street drain and never in the road in front of it. I can just imagine the vile fanged clowns voice calling my name... *shuddershudder*

I have read and enjoyed all the Stephen King books. The published stories are harder to keep up with since he is in a variety of magazines, eBooks, and online. He is everywhere. The stories are great though. I actually don't like the movies too much. I haven't seen It though, mostly because it is such a freaky story!
ReplyDeleteI have a rule with movies... they have to be the type that makes me feel better after I have seen them than I felt before. I am not as strict with books, but that's because I can simply lay the book down and never pick it up if I start to dislike it. Movies are too fast paced. By the time you walk out, those images are in your head forever!
ReplyDeleteI picked up It on a dark, stormy night when I was babysitting. Needless to say, I was scared out of my mind the rest of the night until the adults got back home. I think I was about 16. I've read just about everything else he's written since then (my favorite is The Stand), but It still scares me.
