1.0

This book was just not for me.

The bad:
Simply put, it was too long. 500 pages of this could have been cut out completely and it would have been a better story. I couldn't keep all the characters in my head and I lost track of who and where and how.

For a book of over 1000 pages, it spent so long talking about anecdotes, about side characters, about unimportant scenes and in general it does not talk much about the monster. You easily spend 200 pages waiting for the monster. It's not scary. It's just annoying.

Also kids having sex in a sewer as the solution to killing the monster? No thank you. I understand why but I simply didn't like it. 

The good:
The monster was terrifying when it was there. The writing is really good too but this is Stephen King. That's to be expected. 

I will never touch this book again

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!
