Description
High school is a monster, and it's eating everyone Robin knows. Discover the backstory of the new Stranger Things fan favourite character, Robin, played by Maya Hawke!
It's the beginning of sophomore year, and Robin's Odd Squad friends have decided—this time, they're going to fit in. They couple up, they won't stop talking about college and their future careers, and they're obsessed with trying to act "normal." Robin knows that game well—she's been pretending for years, hoping nobody would notice the sarcastic polyglot French horn player with a bad perm in the back of the room.
But there's one aspect of her identity that she knows for sure doesn't fit in with her carefully controlled image—something she's only just now realising—Robin likes girls.
How exactly is she supposed to be her true self in teeny-tiny Hawkins, Indiana? Robin is convinced the only way she can experience real life is by fleeing to Europe for the summer—aka Operation Croissant. But she has no money, no permission, and no one to share the adventure with—and it will take a heck of a lot more than that to escape Hawkins in one piece.
Sprinkled with references to your favourite Stranger Things characters, this prequel chronicles one girl's realisation that the only person she really needs to be accepted by is herself.
Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?
Stranger Things: Rebel Robin by A. R. Capetta is generally received well, with readers appreciating the exploration of Robin Buckley's backstory and her character depth. The book captures the atmosphere of the 1980s and integrates it into Robin's journey, enriching the Stranger Things universe. However, some felt it was more suited for fans of the show, as familiarity with the series enhances the reading experience.
