Books that feel like Stranger Things? Yes please.

In this video I’m talking through a stack of books that tap into the same stuff we all love from the show. I’m talking small towns hiding big secrets, creepy science labs doing things they really shouldn’t, and that mix of 80's nostalgia and Eldritch Horrors!

These are the kind of stories that pull you right back into that feeling of riding your bike home after dark, hoping nothing weird crawls out of the trees. Books with spooky vibes, strange powers, found family moments, and the sort of tension that keeps your shoulders tight long after you’ve put the bookmark in.
