Summary
Following a horrific tragedy striking the Wheeler family, they're forced to move to cozy Hawkins, Indiana. Which makes Mike Wheeler the new kid in town, completely against his will, and he hates it.
Even in a fresh new high school, he's still the freak. Despite being navigated around by his new friends Dustin Henderson and Lucas Sinclair, he can't help but feel like an anomaly. Maybe talking to a pretty girl like Jane Hopper would make him feel more... normal.
But one high school party later, he ends up in a thunderstorm with a pathetic wish. And with that, the entire trajectory of his life is thrown into chaos.
He should really spend less time in the cemetery.

Summary
“There was a boy,” Izzy’s dad murmurs. “He… he was my first friend—my best friend. And I…”
His voice trails off. Tears well in her dad’s eyes, and Izzy reaches across the space between them, taking his free hand. She gives it an encouraging squeeze, and her dad laughs, soft and broken and free.
“I loved him, Izzy,” her dad whispers, meeting her eyes. “I loved him. I really, really did.”
Or:
The one in which Mike Wheeler has a crash out of epic proportions when listening to ’Good Luck, Babe!’ and his daughter, Izzy, decides to do something about it.
