Reading as a kid in the 80s

Was anyone else an early bibliophile and read stuff waaaaaay above their targeted age? I'm sitting here watching "It" with my daughter and I remember being about ten years old reading the opening scene where Pennywise rips Georgie's arm off. I was also a "Clan of the Cave Bear" fan so I'm not trying to brag or anything but I read a LOT of caveman porn scenes as a middle-schooler. I actually remember writing caveman fanfic on Word perfect DECADES before I ever knew what fanfic was 😂
