Came late to this series also but now I'm a true Eleven believer. Personal opinion but just something so magical about the first season be it book version or show version.

If you love Stranger Things and want a quick way to revisit Season 1, this junior novel is a really fun listen. It does a solid job retelling the story and hitting the major moments, even though it naturally leaves out some of the more adult themes and darker details from the show.

The narrator did a great job with the kids and Joyce especially, and those performances felt really natural. Hopper’s voice was a little more hit-or-miss for me, and it didn’t always land the way I hoped, but it wasn’t enough to ruin the experience.

Overall, this is a great pick if you want the Season 1 vibe without having to sit down and watch 7 or so hours of TV. A fun, easy listen for fans!

Fun, Fast Retelling of Season 1

This was an excellent adaptation, and the reader did phenomenal; I especially enjoyed his voice for Dustin and it really helped paint a recap in my mind about season 1. There were a few minor moments that were skipped in this novelization, like Will racing Dustin home for example, but they were minor scenes that don’t take too much away from the over arching story.

All in all, if you’re a fan of stranger things I recommend this :)

A really good adaptation
