I have not read the this book, but I have pre-ordered this from my local library! I have seen the movie trailer and Chapter 2! Plus Stephen King is one of my favorite authors!

I am really into horror movies and books so this book piqued my interest.
In a small town called Derry, a shapeshifting creature who takes the form of a terrifying dancing clown. A group of six kids who call themselves the losers club fight off the clown after IT kills multiple children who have the most of what IT loves. Fear. They think they have killed the clown-only to return to Derry in later years to kill IT for good. I can connect this to most adults today, children often have to be braver than adults. The losers tried to tell adults about IT but they were called crazy and liars. They had to take the matter into their own hands instead. I give this book five stars because it's fairly original and Stephen King had written many horror stories but this one is by far my favorite. (also because one of the losers Riche is hilarious so that brings the rating up-)
It is a terrifying horror book about a killer clown named Pennywise The Dancing Clown who terrorizes people, mostly kids. A group of 6 kids: Bill, Eddie, Beverly, Ben, Richie and Mike try to stop Pennywise's horrifying actions.
