SPOILERS will be openly discussed.
Owned the hardcover for years. Made a couple attempts at starting it but something else always crept it's way into my line of sight that would stop me about 70-something pages in. Lugging a 1000+ page book around wasn't exactly easy either, particularly when a lot of my reading was done in my car or, while working my old job, in the break room.
But alas now thanks to the Kindle my mother got me for Christmas last year and the decision I made to transition to a digital platform for my books to save both physical space and money, I have been reading books left and right with hardly a day's break between a piece. And now it's time for the big one, the horror masterpiece that I've attempted more than a few times to conquer and had placed it at the top of my TBR pile for the September/October time frame.
I made up a list of about seven books to read for spooky season, with the majority of them being read throughout September. I finished well in advance and held off on starting IT until the first of October as it, besides Dark Harvest, was the most Halloween-y of the books that I had lined up.
***
So where do I currently sit with the book? About 6% of the way in according to my Kindle. Stanley had committed suicide and sent his spastic wife into a screaming fit. I last left off at the beginning of the Richie introduction chapter, and it is just about there or slightly after it that all my attempts at reading this book have failed.
But not this time.
Welcome to the spooky season. We fall float here.
