I think this might be my favorite book in the series so far! I truly feel like the characters have successfully developed. I enjoyed seeing the reality of what coming out is like on both ends of the spectrum (i.e., some being completely accepting, others being completely ignorant and unaccepting), and also seeing the amount of support that Nick and Charlie received from their respective friends (Nick with Tara, and Charlie with Aled). I also loved all the romance that was portrayed between both Nick & Charlie and Tara & Darcy!
Overall, I never have anything bad to say about Heartstopper. It's a solid series, through and through.

This time our characters both discover coming out as a couple isn't as straightforward as they imagined, while touching on issues of mental health that will doubtless be explored more in the future. It's another very wholesome exploration of LGBTIQ+ relationships that highlights solutions (sometimes just attitudes!) to overcoming issues rather than mining them for grim dramatic potential - but there is still drama, as this series continues to be extremely engaging, and there are a few punch-the-air moments.
Definitely looking forward to seeing the threads laid down for Volume 4 explored, but in many ways this would have been a satisfying conclusion to the series.
