This Winter is another novella set in the universe of Heartstopper, focused on the Spring siblings as they try to get through the Christmas day with little drama. However, drama is always around the corner. I really liked this little novella. Its sad and very emotional but it also ends on a hopeful tone, which contributed to the bitterswet tone and feel of the story. I also liked that the story focused on the relationship between Tori and Charlie. I always wanted to know more about the relationship between the singlisngs and now I got a glimpse, that made me want to read Solitaire - the story of Tori.
Its a tiny, bittersweet, and lovely story that I would recommend to any fan of Heartstopper and Solitaire.

The plot could have been developed into a whole novel.
Felt a little rushed at times.

Some of the characters speak about mental illnesses in a very degrading manner. "Crazy" Or "maniac" Are examples of descriptions used. An explicit case is the discussion of schizophrenia.fa1ryts's review

Personally, I find the style of writing that Alice Oseman has is one that is easy to follow yet creates incredibly complex characters and plot. This rings true throughout this book.
