4.0

I was going to give this book 3.75 stars. However, I happened to read it beside my buddy Alex. 
He said, "3.75??!! You were giggling and kicking your feet the entire time!"
Which come to think of it. He was right.

Excuse my rambling, but I feel Harry was done justice in the books rather than the Netflix show.

He stuck up for Nick and Charlie during the Paris trip, and Nick asking "Did Harry just try to defend us?" 
He apologized at the party rather than the movie theater to Charlie.

To me, that seems a lot more organized than the shows way of putting it. 

People are angry about Ben getting written out of the show in season 3. Bestie. He got written out of Volume 1 in the books. What do you mean?

Alice Oseman did a really good job introducing a threatening character. 
If that's the person that made the illustrations instead of the books. 
They made it so you were scared of Nick's brother showing up out of nowhere.

Nick's dad was introduced, but I don't think in the show he was fully French? 
* I'm not complaining. If anything, I like that idea rather than him being English completely*

Although! I haven't seen season two, so I wouldn't have any idea how his dad acts. 

I understand that books, movies, and shows are completely different! But it's fun to point this stuff out and see what's "correct" and what's not!

In this book we will get to see the confession of Nick. Nick discovering his sexuality. And more of Nick and Charlie romance. But they are in a secret relationship.

This installment has many sweet moments between Nick and Charlie and their friends. It also delves into teen mental health and eating disorders. It does so in an approachable way that I think is an important message for teens.

4.5

I love these graphic novels so much!! I’ve loved getting to know more of the characters, and it definitely makes me want to rewatch the show. I think that Oseman handles the more difficult topics (eating disorder, bullying, outing) with such grace and sensitivity! I love this series! 

Trans right read-a-thon book 4! The author, Alice Oseman, goes by she/they pronouns and considers themselves to be gender-fluid!
