Because we had so much fun with The Standalong…
And because she is the hostess with the most-ess…
And because evil things happen on twitter when you’re not around…
And because we all need more horror in our lives (as well as 1000+ pages books)…
…Christina and I decided that Trish will be hosting the IT-along in September.
I’m guessing that this is her reaction to this announcement:**
Who’s in?
**Not that I’m implying that Trish looks like an evil clown. Just that she’s most likely having a “what the hell” moment that is appropriately represented by this picture featuring the evil from IT.



Trish! Trish!
She’s our gal
If she won’t host…
I’ll have a cow.
(What?! It’s a **slant** rhyme! lol)

Oh man. I remember the first time I read IT, right when it came out. That book was SO GOOD. Maybe not quite as good as The Stand, but it gripped me. I’m not sure about doing another re-read, but I will anxiously follow all your insights and chuckle when none of you can sleep at night!!!

Count me in! When I was reading 11/22/63, there was a part that mention the clown and it was so creepy! I’ve been curious about IT ever since.

I’m so excited that you posted about this! I’ve been looking for an excuse to read IT since I was a little girl and now forced hostess-ship sounds like the perfect reason! 0-:-) (that’s my angel face).
This is what my face really looks like >:-<
But thank goodness I don't have those teeth. Is this a double dog dare?
OH man. Just looked at audible and it's 44 hours long. Didn't King write ANYTHING short?!

Oh holy snikeys! Clowns scare the crap out of me, and I watched this mini-series so long ago, and never forgot that creepy clown! I wish you luck with this one. I am too much of a sissy to go for it!

Confession…. dolls and clowns creep me out. True story. Couldn’t play with dolls when I was a kid… the eyes…..they follow me. Now the eyes on the clown picture you posted follow me…
*gulp*

IT is freaking terrifying!!!!!!! I’m still haunted by it.
Ack, I just can’t deal with horror. Haven’t read King since college (way back in the last century), but I am tempted to read 11/22/63. Y’all have fun.

LOL, I’m still laughing at the idea of Trish’s face/reaction to this. Hilarious.

I’m on the fence with this one. I’ve heard some weird thigns about this book and I think I might be too big of a baby to join in, clowns are scary. But I still want to join!
