I saw It for the first time when I was young, and I really didn't want to read any King after that. Scared shitless.

I have a hilarious mental image right now of someone running screaming out of a theater ripping their shirt off.

Yeah, edited to shitless. Shirtless was an awesome Android autocorrect.

I started with Eyes of the Dragon and fell in love with King. I haven't read any of his books as an adult and I don't think I will. I'm afraid I won't like them anymore and I prefer to remember his work with fondness. I spent a lot of time reading and re-reading his work.

Edit: I don't blame you. IT was a scary story, for sure. The book is so much more disturbing.
