Stephen King's It was dreadful (or the hundred pages I read of it). I'm very fond of some people here who really like it, but, egads, the waffle! Epic length, but no sign of epic breadth or depth. Why do we need the detailed backstories of people who then disappear just after and are clearly never going to appear again?
HB, I have read the first 70 pages and am kind of at the same place. It is quite out there, and I like to think the whole book can't be written like that. I've read a lot of King and this one is sure laid out differently. And not in a good way! Hopefully I keep to it later this summer. I think its a backyard in the sun book. (rather than a running down the street in the rain kind of book) oh look, does this float?
