I simply love Alice Oseman and her books. This specific Novella was amazing, though short (obviously).
I love the realness and how it’s portrayed. Charlie’s eating disorder and struggles, Tori’s ‘obligation’ as the oldest sibling even when she’s struggling herself, and Oliver’s kid view on the world. I love all of it.

Alice Oseman has the extraordinary ability to combine emotional hurt with the sweetest, most heart-warming moments.

This winter was probably my favourite story in within the Solitaire books. I think it was a lovely look into the Spring family dynamic and I definitely enjoyed getting to listen to Oliver’s point of view. I think it was a very enjoyable read.
