Nancy Wheeler ermittelt

Spannende Geschichte die zwischen der vierten und fünften Staffel von Stranger Things angesiedelt ist. Im Mittelpunkt steht Nancy als Reporterin unterstützt von Robin. Der Roman spielt zwar in Stranger Things Universum mit den bekannten Figuren, aber es handelt sich ausschließlich um einen waschechten Krimi und der ist garnicht mal so schlecht. Nebenbei geht’s auch um die Konstellation Jonathan, Steve und Nancy. Auch die Übernahme von Hawkins durch das Militär wir thematisiert. Die Serie sollte man schon kennen, damit man alle Bezüge und die Motivation der Charaktere versteht. Für Fans der Serie 🤩

"Shh I think I see some fireflies."

Okay, so this novel was wonderful, I can definitely recommend reading it for the characters and the plot. As for the characters, the writing for all of them is SO in character it's astonishing. Additionally, this book helped me understand Nancy more, as well as her relationships with other characters from the show (such as robin and her mom in particular). It also addresses her relationship issues with Jonathan in a beautiful way and shows an unexpected amount of character development. I mourn most of these interpersonal scenes not being in the show and I really really urge you to read this if you love the characters in stranger things and want to learn more about Robin's family and her fears, but also Mrs Wheeler's opinions on Nancy's graduation. I especially love robins character being fleshed out more in chapter 26! (My favourite dynamic was without a doubt Robin's and Nancy's friendship!) The novel also explains why the Byers moved in with the Wheelers if you're interested. There's some Byler crumbs in this, and I loved every second Mike or Will were mentioned. They're so silly. Surprisingly, the beside characters that are book exclusive like joey really grew on me, and I mourned a lot of them as the plot is surprisingly high stakes, and a lot of them didn't make it out. The mystery is really engaging, and honestly, even though I knew no one would die before season 5, I was genuinely scared for nancy sometimes. Nedless to say, I love nancy more than ever now. I cried during the last two chapters when all of the conflicts were resolved and paid off , I really love that we end on a scene of Jonathan and nancy - oh the romance. In conclusion, you should totally read this for the characters even if the main plot is not as supernatural as usual.
