Reviews with content warning for Homophobia - Heartstopper Volume 3

I love these graphic novels so much!! I’ve loved getting to know more of the characters, and it definitely makes me want to rewatch the show. I think that Oseman handles the more difficult topics (eating disorder, bullying, outing) with such grace and sensitivity! I love this series!

Trans right read-a-thon book 4! The author, Alice Oseman, goes by she/they pronouns and considers themselves to be gender-fluid!

With every volume, I swear Heartstopper gets better and better!

I loved the deeper dive into Much and Charlie's struggles and mental health. While this story is still plenty cute and fluffy and heartwarming, there are some darker themes that are revealed about Nick and Charlie's lives. I absolutely love their exploration into finding support in one another and learning how to better communicate. I also loved that their friends were a bigger part of the story too!

This series is truly a joy to read. I'll never get over how much I love the art style. Every page is filled with character and emotion, you can't help but be enveloped by every detail.
