It by Stephen King Book Summary

It: Chapter Two—now a major motion picture!

Stephen King’s terrifying, classic #1 New York Times bestseller, “a landmark in American literature” (Chicago Sun-Times)—about seven adults who return to their hometown to confront a nightmare they had first stumbled on as teenagers…an evil without a name: It.

Welcome to Derry, Maine. It’s a small city, a place as hauntingly familiar as your own hometown. Only in Derry the haunting is real.

They were seven teenagers when they first stumbled upon the horror. Now they are grown-up men and women who have gone out into the big world to gain success and happiness. But the promise they made twenty-eight years ago calls them reunite in the same place where, as teenagers, they battled an evil creature that preyed on the city’s children. Now, children are being murdered again and their repressed memories of that terrifying summer return as they prepare to once again battle the monster lurking in Derry’s sewers.

Readers of Stephen King know that Derry, Maine, is a place with a deep, dark hold on the author. It reappears in many of his books, including Bag of Bones, Hearts in Atlantis, and 11/22/63. But it all starts with It.

“Stephen King’s most mature work” (St. Petersburg Times), “It will overwhelm you…to be read in a well-lit room only” (Los Angeles Times).

I hate clowns. I have to say is less scarier than the movie

IT is AMAZING. I loved this book so much! It was so descriptive and super well written. I am such a big losers club/IT fan it’s crazy. iT one and IT two are such big emotional roller coasters it is crazy. This book made laugh and cry at the same time. It is such a touching book. It also gave me nightmares. I know that may sound like a bad thing but for me a horror book has to keep me up for 2 full nights to really be considered that good and this book was that good. I also loved the movies! The kid and adult casting was literally perfect. They did such a good job it left me in shock. I literally got the chills

Amazing. Steven king is a good writer and I LOVE IT it is just a amazing book bucause it tells about friendship and I just Love how he makes a lot of books and movies

I love IT. Hi my name is georgie from that movie and I really love the book so much I think I’m gonna get it for my birthday in April 2 and where going to Disney world omg this is the best

Inexcusable. That one Beverly scene

I love It. I love the book and how it is written I also think that it chapter 2 is also a banger to watch the movies to have the full experience.

to finish. Just another great King. Book

A Great Starting Book for King Fans. This was the first Stephen King book I ever read, and it was amazing! The plot is so good, and the characters are so realistic that it makes you think that they really do exist. This book captures the horror elements of King’s work, but also can give you a heartfelt book at times. This was one a my favorite books of 2019, and would recommend to any person looking to get into Stephen King novels.

Bad. This book is so much bad. I have not read it.

Horrific.. An novel that is pure horror to its core. Don’t let it’s mass fool you; this novel is endearing and full of emotion, as well as terror and suspense—so stick with it. You won’t be sorry!

Amazing, endearing, terrifying, and alluring. This is without a doubt my favorite Stephen King book, and the most recent “It” films are my favorite horror films and favorite adaptations of King’s books. I love the details in this story. I love how endearing and nostalgic I felt whenever reading about the kids in “The Loser’s Club,” and I loved the mysterious sense of horror I felt whenever reading about the terrifying villain, Pennywise, and all the different experiences the kids and the residents of Derry, Maine went through as a result of IT’s mere existence. I cannot wait to read this again. Highly recommend it to anyone who is a fan of horror stories with a great plot. Bravo Stephen King! Thank you for gifting us with this masterpiece ❤️

A grind. Big payoff for sure, but I’m not sure the messy grind to get there was worth it. Huge King fan, but this is, for me, is his worst effort. Still, like everything he does, there’s serious genius and creativity here.

The best. fantstic book

Overall great book. I have seen both movies and in my personal opinion, the book is better. The detail is great.

It’s the best. It’s so much better than you think. So much scarier than you think. It’s undeniable.

Best Book Ever!!!!. I love this book!!!!!! This is my favorite movie and book now!!! I highly recommend this book it’s so good and too good not to read it!!!does cost money so maybe ask your parents to give you some chores for money!!!

Kingception. My Journey to the Dark Tower Book 7 I’m about 1/4 of the way through my second time reading it after 14 years and I’m not sure I’m liking it as much the second time around. There’s SO much extra detail that it gets distracting and feels like a slog through a word swamp. Flashbacks within flashbacks. I put the book down for a day and have to back track an entire chapter to figure out that someone is standing or sitting somewhere having a total thesis-long recall of some Horrible Thing that happened to them oh just about the same time some time ago, and I’m pretty sure every main character does this at least twice. Figuring out when and where and with who you’re with can get a little crazy making. Also, there are two unrelated Eddies which threw me for a loop. Auxiliary one-off characters get an inordinate amount of time describing essentially the same thing: some manifestation of childhood fear is about to murder a kid or some demented townie is about to do a murder. Also, how many characters with abusive parents do you really need? To be continued…

Five Star Greatness!. Such an amazing book!

OMG Read IT it's awesome. First of all I am 14 years old and love to read. This book is probably one of the best books i've read. I mean in my life. I am also a huge IT fan. I absolutely loved both of the 2017/2019 remake movies. Actually they might be two of my new favorite movies of all times. I recommend this book to people my age and older. 14+

Good Book. This book is very interesting and can scare any reader in my opinion. This book may not be suitable for all ages because of obvious reasons so I recommend if you are a younger reader, read this book with someone else. If you don't feel like reading this 1168 book then you can always watch the movies. They are called ”IT” and ”IT: Chapter 2” but those are really long!

It’s good but scary. Not something you wanna listen to at night but it’s so funny and is perfect is has everything I like, scaryness,humor,mystery,awesomeness

Why in the heck. Was saved by a guy??!?!?!

It. This novel was a King Masterpiece plain and simple. Saul Martinez, Myrtle Beach SC

One of my all time favorites. The movies were good (original and remakes) but this book holds a spiritual nostalgia over me that transcends any other story ever told to this constant reader. I feel like I am a part of the story each time I’ve read it. Love this story! Thank you Mr. King.

I mean cmon it’s Steven King. He is such a good writer but he was proven mentally disabeled because of his gory mind so I’m just gonna say don’t press your luck and read any of this guys books if you have a fear of clowns ripping out your guts while you are sleeping or if you are just afraid of clowns. But overall I’m not afraid of clowns so I loved the book but I just have ethics a harsh rating to tell the people out there that are scared of clowns to not read tuis

Where was his editor?. I loved “The Stand” and “The Shining,” but this one not so much. I didn’t appreciate the continuous versions of backstory. Too much. Too much.

In my opinion, In the top 3 greatest Stephen King novels of all time!. For me, what makes this masterpiece of a book so special is not the horror aspect, but the relationships and the special connection between the seven people that make up The Loser’s Club. The monster is merely the engine that drives them together and drives the motivation for the main narrative. I love that King takes his time building up these characters so that you get to know them intimately and you feel for them and savor their interactions with one another. Such a perfect novel from start to finish. I do find myself skipping over some of the Derry history stuff, because I think drags on a bit too long and I think it could have been edited down. That aside, what a truly great novel, and one that I revisit every 2 years or so.

Fantastic book. Both terrifying and a fantastic story

This book is amau. Best book i’ve ever read... not waste of time.

Amazing!!. Took me about two months to read and boy was I scared afterwards! Most thrilling and enjoyable read I have had so far! Worth it if you want a good scare!

😨😱😰😥😓. I do not like horror movies ☁️☁️❤️☁️☁️ ☁️❤️❤️❤️☁️ ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ ☁️❤️☁️❤️ ☁️ Literally

A masterpiece. I’m a 15 year old book addict and I can say this is one of the best books I’ve ever read. This isn’t a book about a clown that kills kids, this is a book about friendship, love and the strength within us all. This book is an emotional roller coaster, and the physiological and humorous elements King weaves in along with humor are so enjoyable. The losers love and sacrifice for each other is beautiful, and the characters are so well written. You really become attached to each individual character. I’ve never cried so many times while reading one book. I recommend this book to everyone ages 14 and up (TW: sexual assault and other sexual content)

Amazing. This book is a great horror book to read, with creepy themes and surprising turns tot he storyline.

His best. Definitely King’s best work at the height of his game. The Dark Towers series a close second. This book has stood the test of time, an enduring classic.

So scary!!. I love this book , I finished the book in over a month ( I like to read ... don’t judge me ) my mom made me read the book and then see the actual movie , and then I saw IT the second chapter in theaters with my BFF ... oh ... my god ! That was the freakiest movie and book ever , I like to get scared . Thank Stephen King for this book !!! 💓

Can’t Complain. I am bout to start reading this, so far... can’t complain

amazing. one of the best books I have ever read. it was nearly impossible to put down. there’s is so much more to this than the mini-series & movies. it’s length may be intimidating, but it’s a fairly easy read and took me no less than 2 weeks. I recommend this to anyone that loves horror.

Top 3 favorites of all time. Difficult to put into words how terrifyingly great this story is - see for yourself

A for affort. hella accurate to the movie

Good book overall. Definitely one of my favorite horror books Stephen king is definitely one of the best horror authors.

SPOOKY SCARY SKELETONS. SHIVERS DOWN YOUR SPINE

a work of art. i appreciate what stephen king did here, it was beautiful! the past the present how it all flows til the end, this was my first SK book and i am so glad i read this. the length didn’t bother me. i recommend the audio book as well stephen does an amazing job. anyway 5/5! loved it will be rereading in a few months!

READ OT NOW!!!!!!. Sooooooooooooo, I’m only 11. Whatever idc, I still read it. It was GREAT. The ending was a bit of, but what...EVS YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. Highly recommend. 🤡 🔴😄

It Is Fantastic. Love this story and the remake in 2017/2019 was fantastic. Nobody captures kids better in writing than Stephen King. I read this book when it first came out and some of the visuals are still with me. Looking to reread soon...

Dorm dove didn’t ascbxdhgjsifk. Stench encourages rob. Trying

My favorite King. I re-read It every few years. It’s like picking up an old friend. It is certainly about horror but it is more about childhood, friendship, and the power of both of those things. It awakens the reader to the everyday evil, as well as good, that exists in humanity but sometimes seems especially prevalent in small rural towns. Having read most of King’s work, I’ll say this is undoubtedly my all time favorite. I’m always sad to reach the end, and that feeling of melancholy nostalgia tends to stick with me for awhile, like it does when I remember my own childhood childhood.

Movie before book. Saw the movie before I read the book so kind of took away for the suspense but I love how the book goes so much more into detail and background information. The movies had me confused on was “IT” actually was but the book helped clear it up for me . Overall great book

😱. I peed my pants. I stayed awake until 7:00 am. That is all. I sleep in my basement tonight. I want my mommy.

IT. Absolutely hot. Not the death but the storyline and plot. And the inspiration being a mysterious powder.

I love Pennywise. I didn’t like the bad words in this book

Love it. Best. Book I’ve read yet!

Too much of a good thing. Stephen King’s writing is incredibly detailed which is what I normally appreciate in a writer. However, despite King’s ability to forge vivid and highly elaborate descriptions, it was just too much. So much so that it was incredibly easy for the reader to simply forget that this book was supposed to be a horror story about a killer clown. His writing about each character’s history and feelings as well as the back-and-forth time traveling is exhaustive and dilutes the intended horror effect that King is trying to convey. Overall, King created a very messy book that was purposelessly lengthy. For me, the 2017 film was much better.

Awesome. Loved it.

GR8 BOOK!. Great book I recommend it for all ages

Loved it! Better than the 1990 movie. I love this book. One of the first book of Stephen king I read. I soon became obsessed with him and his books! Never really developed a fear of clowns, thank goodness as I was a young teen when I first read it. Hope everyone enjoys the book, I did.

Cheyenne lynnn. Awesome

It: the wrung-out genius. It, by Stephen king, is both one of the most thoughtful and thought provoking books in either horror or thriller genre. It’s concept is ingenious and very creative. It’s characters, dialogue and surrounding world are real, raw and well fleshed out. My only quarrel with the monumentally large book is the fact... well... it’s monumentally large. It’s drawn out, and squeezed dry. Everything about it is monotonous to read, not because it’s long, but because it’s very dry (other than the world and people). I could fill a book double the size with edits for solely the first chapter. In all seriousness the amount of “and thens” he uses is utterly ridiculous. That’s my very garbage and worthless review upon It. Hopefully it doesn’t seem too hypothetical with how messy my review is. 3.5 stars btw as a side note, I’m not capable of half stars but FYI, 3.5

Still a classic. Je n’ai pas pu arrêter de lire. I couldn’t put it down. Still a classic.

A must read!. Stephen King is an incredible storyteller! I would definitely recommend reading the book before you see either of the movies.

Best author ever. I loved it

Horrifying. Horrified me for days. I loved it.

Amazing. A real page turner, favoutite part was when Beverly beat up Tom.

I like it. My favourite part was when the kid dies in the beginning

Loved it. My favorite part was when belch died and Hebert doesn't try to save him

It. It was a pretty good book, but it was pretty confusing to me. He’ll be talking about 1957, then the next page he will be talking about something that happened 27 years later

Amazing!. It was a incredible book I loved it so much! I'll read it over and over again.

Pennywise. The book is really good. The story is really well written and very interesting. Although some moments are a little boring, I think that the book is still incredible and complete.

Cool book. I like it 😁

This book... IS AWESOME!. Stephen King is one of my favorite author. The first time I’ve began to read It was from now. Now I can’t stop because I’m enjoying it so much! I’m taking my time to read it, by listening to classical music’s. But to be honest, I’m having a good experience, and I have a feeling that this book is greatly awesome! The story behind it, or well, the storyline is very VERY scary. That one line that made me think that it’s going to be awesome (and scary, because I like scary stories) is “the terror”. You’ll enjoy it, I’m pretty sure, as it’s my 5 Stars books! 11/10 Also.

IT deserves extra content. I think some maps or notes would have been worthwhile. This novel is a meaningful way to understand that the good old days where not always good. I do not hear as much music as I do when reading other Stephen King novels. The themes are fear, friendship and commitment despite it. I noticed IT was like a role playing quest. IT felt like wanting to watch a fight your friends are involved in because all these characters are about being less predictable then horror movie characters. I listened to the entire audiobook because I wanted to be aware of all the differences or elaborations in the 2017 movie and the 1990 version. I will be done in time before the 2017 movie. I was born in 1975 and I appreciate the vivid description of 1957-58. I am disappointed that 1985 did not seem as well described. I think the horror will only mean something to older adults.

Phenomenal story. Doesn’t let up until the last sentence
