Hey /lit.

This is my first time posting here, so I'm sorry if I come off as "entry-level". I'd just like your opinions.

I recently finished reading the book "IT" by Stephen King. Aside from creepy clown shit, the theme, this one motif, is really bothering me. It's that coming-of-age thing...and to be more specific, the part where all the kids have sex with Beverly in the cave. Now, I know King's reasoning, with the whole "unity will save you, sex makes you closer" thing, but after reading the scene, I was thrown into a week of pure curiosity and disgust. It's so hard to describe. I mean, they fucking shared her? In a cave? AT 12 YEARS OLD? It's like she served as the group's concubine/mother hybrid. They all said they love her. It's hard hitting stuff. Anyway, now I am completely fascinated with the whole idea of sex between young people with them believing it is more than a physical thing.

I looked around, and someone told me Flowers in The Attic had this theme, but I was wondering if anyone knows any other books using it. Or, I guess we could just discuss the theme it's self.

For some reason, it hits me hard. Like, it was so personal a moment, albeit fictional, that I am uncomfortable for even knowing it.
