Yeah, right, that,” I say. “Not sure Max and I are in the same lovey-dovey place you guys are, though. It’s been weird with us since Starcourt. She’s been weird.”Award-winning author Suyi Davies pens this exploration of love and identity within the beloved Stranger Things universe, through the eyes of beloved character Lucas Sinclair.

Mom shakes her head but agrees and pulls over. She tries to kiss me on the forehead before I leave. Nope. I’m sure they’d rather take the bus.” I look out the window. “At least pull over here, lemme meet up with Dustin and Mike before I walk in. You want me to go in alone on my first day of high school?”Mike already wears his ready-made scowl as he comes toward us. Unlike us, and expectedly, he has made no changes to his appearance. Not even to his general moping, which began from the second we learned that Will and El will not be joining us for the school year because the Byerses are moving permanently to California. El’s going with them. Right after the Starcourt debacle, they left with Dr. Owens to go make arrangements for their new living situation. We haven’t seen or heard anything about them for a while—for safety reasons or whatever. That and the general gloom of the mall disaster has turned Mike into the worst person to be around.

Stranger Things: Lucas on the Line - Penguin Random House

The Netflix series, Stranger Things, a well-written mix of nostalgia, horror and science fiction. It is also fortunately a jumping off point for an entire universe of entertainment. One of the greatest slices of this universe is the companion novels that focus on individual characters. Over the show’s first four seasons, the cast has grown and (even with long run times for each episode) not every character gets their time in the spotlight. As Season 4 begins, Lucas is looking at starting high school differently than the others. He considers the opportunity for a brand-new start. He sets goals to make new friends, to get out of his comfort zone, and to still be true to himself. It’s in these struggles that the book finds its most powerful message and tone. Dustin’s hair, which was already big, is now even big- ger. Maybe because he isn’t wearing a hat to cover his curls this time. Without it, what he’s done to his hair is very clear. He’s blown up everything, trying to go for a mullet. It looks like a bad perm. Despite everything, I never even saw him get mad. He could've run, he could've saved himself but he fought. He fought and died to protect this town. This town that… hated him. Mr. Munson, he's a hero." Dive into this revealing portrait of Stranger Things fan-favorite Lucas Sinclair and get to know Lucas like never before!This book starts on the first day of high school and ends before too much of season 4 happens- although it does take the reader through Chrissy's death and Lucas finding out about Max being a target for Vecna. I loved Lucas's pov, because it really fleshes his character out and explains what's going on when he's not actively fighting monsters from the upside down, but rather the monsters that roam the streets of high school. I think it's fitting that his book is set in the immediate follow up to season 4, because Caleb McLaughlin was a stand out on the show this past year. Who says it’s Steve?” Dustin pats at the hair, as if that’ll make it shorter or less curly. “And so what if it’s him?” A few indeed,” says Dustin. “This is as close to a make- over as you get, Lucas.” He leans forward and pats at his hair again. “Maybe it’ll work out this time and girls won’t sneer at us.” He stops. “Not like we’re looking for girlfriends, of course. I’ve got Suzie, Mike’s got El, you’ve got Max.”

Dive into this revealing portrait of Stranger Things fan favorite Lucas Sinclair and get to know Lucas like never before. We see themes of oppression and marginalization explored with Eddie’s character and I wish Lucas was included in that. Instead, he is reduced to a side character when he has so much depth.This was quite enjoyable. It was nice to get some insight into Lucas and what happened between the 3rd and 4th season. And his struggle as a person of colour in a small ass town in Indiana in the 80s. It did read a bit like fanfiction at times but I feel like that is inevitable when you are writing a companion novel to a franchise. Man, I am now heartbroken over Max and Lucas again. Dive into this revealing portrait of Stranger Things fan favorite Lucas Sinclair and get to know Lucas like never before. The thrilling adventure of Stranger Things continues where season three left off, with fan favorite Lucas Sinclair finally telling his own story in his own words.
