First novella I think I've ever read! Alice Oseman as always creates really lovable characters dealing with real world issues in a careful and considerate way. Love the blend of prose and illustration scattered throughout. Great addition to the Heartstopper/Solitaire universe.

There was nothing wrong with this book but I just felt because it was only about one day, that there wasn’t like any huge plot thing that happened. It was just a boy being sad on Christmas. Okay maybe that’s oversimplifying it but you know what I mean. 
That’s why I’m giving this 4.25. I thoroughly enjoyed it but just wish there was more of it.
