Each volume makes me fall in love more and more, and I especially love this fourth one. I felt so connected to Charlie and his mom's relationship, how they weren't the type to talk about emotional stuff, and I'm honestly really jealous of how close Nick is to his mom. Every relationship in this series has its ups and downs, but they have each other, they support each other, they are willing to overcome them, and it's all so beautiful. I envy them, truly.

This was quite the adventure! I am so glad Charlie sought help and took care of his mental health. Seeing that he took the initiative to seeking help and stayed at a psychiatric hospital and how Nick does his own research and approaches the subject in a sensitive manner is such a great example of a healthy romantic relationship and good representation of how this situation can be handled. I like how Nick's mom understands him and his want to help Charlie, even offering to help Nick find a way to start the conversation.

The sweetest graphic novels and depictions of teens coming out and experiencing Queer joy. HIGHLY recommend. Such a feel good series but they also touch on real life experiences with school bullies, sibling bullying, strained family dynamics, navigating crushes and relationships as Queer couples and teens, coming out to family and friends, self-harm, eating disorders, mental illness, homophobia, transphobia, etc. I think these are just so well done and despite some of the heavy but necessary themes they touch on they always go back to the joy to be found in navigating Queer relationships.
