i had a break from basically all other books while i was chipping thru It but i’m excited to finally finish this trilogy <3

it kinda sucks that mike isn’t down there with them at the end but whatever i guess

i hate how beverly is written and i feel so ickyyyyyy

idk why he wrote this:

“She heard the familiar chimes from the living room - chimes that had always sounded to her like a Chinese name: Ching-Chong!”

why did he put that in

a lot of this book reminds me of sonic.exe

when is mike going to tell them that stanley killed himself? does no one remember him yet? this is so weird. Is stanley going to become a character at any point in this book? I liked the glimpse of him we got. I know so much about his wife. is that the point? is this stephen king being clever? what’s happeningggg

I’m finally about to read a Beverly chapter. This is gonna be kind of make or break for me. So far she has been written ……….. poorly……. mostly she is just used for the boys to realise they’re starting to have sexual feelings. Actually I thought Richie was meant to be gay so it was weird to see from him too. But maybe he’s only gay in the movies.

very readable so far. I will say I cannot get a gauge on how old Bela is at all. I’m assuming like 5-6.

I can’t say where I heard this but i’m sure I remember something about King saying he keeps politics out of his books. If that is true it is hilarious. I tried to find the source of what i think i remember but i could only find people complaining that politics ruin King’s books which is also very funny. This book would be nothing without the political commentary. It certainly would be about 700 pages shorter.

i’m so intimidated by this book but i’m so curious about it.

I love how there are Parts and then Chapters within them, but then the Chapters are also separated into Parts. I’ve only read one chapter but it was only 13 pages long so i’m not sure why it needed to be cut up into 4 parts but it’s ok.

i know that bitch took the pen

I love Will and this bit made me very upset:

“Will got more and more frightened himself. He realized how clever his mother had been to make this real danger into a game so that he wouldn't be alarmed, and how, now that he knew the truth, he had to pretend not to be frightened, so as to reassure her.”

I am so excited to see how he and Lyra play off eachother…
