hey ive never read the book but i love the movie so should i get the book

[canto1408]

@gekkost8fan Well the movie is quite different from the book, I saw the movie before I read the book. I still like the movie, but I don't like it as much as I used to, after reading the book. So if you read the book, you'll see that the movie left out a lot from the book. I still say get the book, I just wanna say that the book and the movie are very different.

I loved this review. Couldn't agree more. Plus, so many other books of his make direct links/references to this book. This book is the root of most of his works in my mind.

@AmplifiedVoices92090 That is true, I don't know if you ever read The Dark Tower series, but The Turtle from this book is also in the Dark Tower series. Also The Crimson King who is the main villain of The Dark Tower series, is supposted to be the same type of creature that It is. The character of Dick Hallorann from The Shining appears in this book. Also Beverly at one point in the book talks about the character of Frank Dodd from The Dead Zone,

I disagree IT is not King's all-time best it IS a good read but not any better than Carrie.
