    Summary

    For years, Marlene McKenna has been the quiet girl next door.

    Steve Harrington has barely noticed her.

    But Hawkins is changing.

    Strange things are happening.

    And suddenly Marlene isn’t just watching from the window anymore—she’s in the middle of it.

    Between monsters, secrets, and Steve Harrington rambling about girls who never like him back, something shifts.

    She’s always liked him. She just never called it that.

    He’s always known her. He just never really saw her.

    Until the world starts ending.
