Weeee reread as Volume 5 is being shipped to me! It was also nice to see which parts of this made it into season 2 of the show and what remaining content we might see in season 3.

I also really appreciated Oseman’s portrayal of inpatient psychiatric treatment.

Ik heb dit boek net voor de tweede keer gelezen, zoals ik ook de eerste drie volumes heb herlezen, ter voorbereiding voor het lezen van het nieuw uitgegekomen vijfde volume.

Tot dusver is dit boek misschien het meest emotionele, gezien de moeilijke onderwerpen die aan bod komen. In het bijzonder verwijs ik hiermee naar de mentale gezondheidsproblemen, eetstoornis, en nieuw gediagnosticeerde OCD van Charlie. Het is prachtig om te lezen over Charlie's worsteling met deze problemen, de liefde en steun die Nick hem geeft, en hoe deze problemen niet magischerwijze genezen en weggaan. Charlie blijft worstelen, ook wanneer het beter gaat, hij hervalt hier en daar in zelfschadend gedrag, maar hij blijft gesteund worden door zijn geliefden en blijft vooruitploeteren.
Het is zo uitzonderlijk en fantastisch om deze onderwerpen zo goed vertegenwoordigd te zien worden, de moeilijkheden die ermee gepaard gaan, zonder ook het ietwat onschuldige en hoopvolle karakter van de serie te verliezen.

Zoals altijd, een meesterlijke werk van Alice Oseman.

I cannot rate this series anything but five stars. Sorry not sorry. Nick and Charlie have my heart and so do the rest of the characters!!!!

I absolutely love that Alice Oseman touched upon codependency in this volume!!! Very relatable first relationship experience. Every topic is handled with such grace while also keeping things realistic. Acknowledging that mental health might be a life-long battle is a hard to swallow pill for most (me lol), but it does give you a new perspective on how to handle it better rather than trying to get rid of it. Seeing Charlie and Nick come to that realisation was cathartic!!
