This book is extremely long! So I def recommend getting the audiobook!

Stephen King's It is a classic horror novel that explores the themes of trauma, friendship, and the power of fear. The story follows a group of childhood friends who reunite as adults to confront the evil entity that terrorized them as children. The characters are well-developed and the writing is both suspenseful and atmospheric. The novel is a masterclass in horror and the way that King builds tension and creates a sense of dread is unparalleled. The book is also a commentary on the power of trauma and how it can shape our lives. It's a haunting and thought-provoking read that will stay with you long after you finish it. I highly recommend It to anyone looking for a classic horror novel that is both terrifying and deeply moving.
