I loved this book. First Stephen King book I have ever read and i was hooked.This is the only book that i have read, that i actually connected with the characters. The only character i felt bad for was Eva though. I dont know why but i really liked her. Moving on to IT now. Loved the mini-series, watched it when i was like 4 and been terrified of clowns since.

I got this book for Christmas in the early 80's...I think I was 15 or 16. Started reading it early in the day & couldn't put it down. I finished it about 3AM the next morning and was so freaked out (the cover was black and had the outline of a girl with a drop of blood on the corner of her mouth) that I couldn't have the book in my room. I opened my parents attic door and threw the book (attic is huge, the full length of the house) as far across the attic as I could, never to be seen again. To my knowledge it is still there waiting to freak out the next person who finds it. It was the scariest novel I've ever read and certain scenes still disturb me to this day.

I'm reading this book right now and I think it's awesome. My goal is to read as many books as I can By Stephen King. And it's very easy because his books are so good, it's hard to put them down once you start reading them.
