Hello! Just a quick update with some links and things. Thank you SO MUCH to everyone who has signal-boosted, bought, or already read and reviewed Stranger Things: Suspicious Minds! You rock. For a launch day that started with beating off an attacker while on dog walks and having to ID the creep once they caught him, I have to say this has been a pretty great week.
I’m still getting a fair number of questions about where to pick up signed copies — Joseph-Beth Booksellers here in Lexington can hook you up, or you can preorder copies I’ll be doing for The Signed Page next month at Emerald City Comic-Con. Bonus: The Signed Page will ship internationally. You can find the book most everywhere it seems, and I’m hoping to stalk it properly in the wild here later this week. And I’m going to Paris for the launch there in a few weeks (screech)!
Some elsewheres:
- The wonderful Erin Keane at Salon interviewed me about the book and we talked about girl gangs and research and all sorts of things;
- The Daily Mirror has a round-up of 13 Stranger Things learned in the prequel;
- Buzzfeed asked me to explain why Terry chose Jane as Eleven’s given name;
- Some reviews: Cinelinx; Culturess; The Unseen Library; and Caffeinated Reviewer (of the audiobook).
Also, Matthew Modine, aka Dr. Brenner himself, is wonderful:

I was just about to walk over to Lexington Avenue NYC – and then – oh – Lexington Kentucky! Oops! https://t.co/3whrkV7pzu

Of course – this is an interpretation of what may – or may not have happened – before and during #DrMartinBrenner’s time with #Eleven –
Personally, I can’t wait to hear what the fans have to say. Enjoy the read! https://t.co/KldLd6lnta
