It was a good story but It was kind of too short, I know that it was expected but I just wanted more, not really criticizing.

I feel about this how I feel about most Heartstopper-related things: It's decent, but I'm not as obsessed with it as others seem to be.

Well captured the pain of a less than supportive family when you have mental health problems

Cutest thing ever!
Teared up here and there but there were happy tears. 
So cheesy but somehow realistic. 
There were scenes that were dark and tackled heavy topics like mental illness and eating disorders. Oseman represented it with respect though and this taught me a thing or two about these topics. 
Sidenote: Oliver and Harry must be protected at all times.

3.75🌟
I don't think that audio was the right format for this novella but it was the one available on scribd so... yeah. Hated the reading of the texts. 
The last chapter was on Oliver's POV and let me tell you that it was the shortest but it made me cry. He sounded so cute and I wasn't really expecting it.
