Summary
Charlotte “Letty” Hopper knows Hawkins isn’t safe—she learned that long before the monsters. Dumped on her uncle’s doorstep by a mother who didn’t want her, Letty clings to the fragments of normal life: late-night shifts at the arcade, banter with friends, and the dangerous pull of boys who make her feel seen in different ways. But Hawkins doesn’t let go. Between whispers of the Upside Down, memories she can’t shake, and the bruises of a past she never asked for, Letty has to find her footing before the town swallows her whole. A story of survival, found family, and the messy intimacy of growing up in a world where darkness is always just beneath the surface.

Summary
Elizabeth knew three tips, or her "keeps" as she liked to call them, on how to be a good wife:
1. Keep his belly full
2. Keep the home clean
3. Keep your mouth shut when he comes home with blood on his jacket.A marriage purely of convenience back in 1920, the Hellers made a comfortable life for themselves in the city, with Elizabeth staying home to care for the house and Mordecai 'bringing home the bacon' as they say. A pretty nice little setup, don't you think?

Summary
Scaramouche could never understand how Aether forgave him so easily after all the times he'd tried to kill him.
The blonde was far too kind. Far too naive. Mercy like his was foreign to a man born of spite and thunder.
The Balladeer built himself on anger, on the idea that he didn't need anyone — and now, faced with someone who refused to hate him, he didn't know what to do.
Maybe the cruelest part of all was that Aether saw everything... and still stayed.
