That scared me too!!! I was terrified..
I JUST finished reading It like 5 mins ago and it didn't scare me as much as it made me want to throw up sometimes. I wasn't bothered by the kids having sex either... Bev knew that they had to do it to bring them all back together. I liked the story very much and I was even surprised that they killed It. I thought for sure that Ben would have missed one of the eggs or something
It also makes me happy to think that Ben and Bev will finally be together like they should since he loved her best and the longest.
I was shocked at all the things in this story that related to other King stories.. Pennywise sent Christine to come pick Henry up and take him to the Derry Home...
I also thought it ended where it should of. It wouldn't be nice to think that Audra stayed catatonic forever... even though she shouldn't have came I liked her cuz she loved Bill so much... I can't express my relief at Tom dying without even a whole lot of drama.. we just come upon him in the lair lying in a hump... and honestly I think it was a relief to Eddie to have died. I think he was the only one of the ka-tet (if you'll allow) that could not have gone on and been happy. The life that he was living at home was a kind of hell that he hadn't been able to pull himself out of. May sound a lil insensitive but I think he died satisfied. And Jake says that's all we need right?
So overall I was more than satisfied with the book. Worlds better than the movie... Anyone think that Other was supposed to be Sai King Himself?
