No question I could relate to Richie as a kid. Hid behind dirty humor as a defense mechanism for sure. As adults, I guess I relate most to Ben, stuck in his home town, pushing the gang to be responsible.
For me, i would say Richie. The way humor is his coping mechanism but how it is actually more harmful to his relationships that beneficial.

Hmm... Tough call, but I'd have to go with Richie. He's funny and relatable, and can turn a scary scene into a comedy show haha. Literally my favourite character.



I can remember the exact moment in the book when she won me over completely and it was when she lied to her Dad about the blood in the sink and says it's a spider. I feel like I'd seen that moment so many times in storytelling when the character just can't pick up on the fact that the other person can't see what they are seeing but Bev knew right away. Such a champ.
