I love Charlie and Nick. Oseman can do no wrong with these two. I also liked getting to read the perspectives of Charlie’s siblings in this novella.

This Winter is a nice side story to the comics of heartstopper. You really get to see what happened during Christmas and how much it not only affected Charlie, but his siblings as well. Hearing the things Charlie went through is sad, but helps you connect with him even more. His support system of Tori and Nick is amazing and creates a lovely story.
