This is my favourite book of all time. The whole series of books is my all time favourite. All of the characters are my favourite. The way Alice osman potrayed the characters was so sweet.
This book hold a special place in my heart.
Obviously Nick and Charlie is my favourite couple.
The friendship between Charlie, Tao, Elle and Isaac was so heartwarming.
The tension between Charlie and Nick is so sweet to read.

I was trying to wait until all of the books were out, but I couldn’t wait! This graphic novel is just pure queer joy! I remember loving the show so so much, and I love the book/graphic novel just as much! The story is just so amazing, and I loved the artwork! It is a super quick read (took me about 40 minutes ish)! I will be binging all of the other books immediately after this! 

Trans right read-a-thon book 2! The author, Alice Oseman, goes by she/they pronouns and considers themselves to be gender-fluid!

 Romance, or rather, the beginnings of romance, between two boys at a British high school. This is one of the most wholesome love stories I've read, not that there aren't complications and things that go wrong, but just that the author does such a great job of getting the reader cheering for the couple to come together.

And while the supporting cast is small, the author manages to give us an amazing character in rugby coach Mrs. Singh, who shines in spite of only getting a couple of quick scenes.

The pacing is great, allowing for small moments and dialogue while still moving things along. The cliffhanger ending does feel like a bit of an arbitrary place to cut things, but it did it's job of leaving me wanting to read more.

JK Rowling found dead in a ditch. Alice Oseman is everything she thinks she is. 


Crying score: nope.
