I read this book as an English project, since I previously read it and that it was easy to read in the allotted time for the project, instead of what I wanted to read. I was okay, nothing too interesting. I want to read the other books in the series, but I have to wait until they are all in paperback.

It

Description:
The story follows the exploits of seven children as they are terrorized by an eponymous being, which exploits the fears and phobias of its victims in order to disguise itself while hunting its prey. "It" primarily appears in the form of a clown in order to attract its preferred prey of young children. The novel is told through narratives alternating between two time periods, and is largely told in the third-person omniscient mode.
                                        
I normally dislike things (books, movies, or anime) that tend to flip back and forth in POV and time periods; but I actually enjoyed this book, I found the book very gripping...I read the book at school and home, whenever I had the chance to really...some of the other students looked at me like I was crazy, since it has lots of pages, or because they had heard that it was a scary book.I would love to find out more about It though....

The Complete Jack the Ripper

Description:
Discover the theories and facts surrounding the Whitechapel murders in David Rumbelow's The Complete Jack the Ripper... It is 1888 in London's Whitechapel district, where one by one a group of prostitutes are brutally murdered. Opium smoking Inspector Fred Abberline is called upon to investigate these horrific murders and through his visions track down and trap Jack the Ripper. David Rumbelow's casebook sets the crimes firmly in their historical setting, examines the evidence comprehensively and scrupulously, disposes of a number of theories and legends and relates the murder to popular literature and to later similar sex crimes. In addition he has had the advantage of access to some of Scotland Yard's most confidential papers.
                                                        
It's a really interesting read, I liked it a lot. The way it is all tied together was great, it just flowed from thing to the next. I read this at school, and the pictures are not the best for a school setting; but since the pictures are all together for the most part, it can be skipped and then go back to later.
