Don’t read this straight after Heartstopper Vol 4 it will cause actual whiplash. Going from “awww I’m so happy and proud of them” to “they have sex in this one” is actually hilarious.

Anyway, it reads kind of like a really great fanfiction which is never a bad thing

Nick felt super out of character in this book. It felt Alice Oseman had a hard time transferring Nick's character from comic to plain novel format. 

I also generally hate the "miscommunication" trope and this novel was FULL of it. This trope in particular doesn't really fit the dynamic of Nick + Charlie's relationship either, making it feel odd next to the original graphic novels. 

However I did feel like the plot/conflict was relevant and reflective of this point in teenage life, which I appreciated!! I'm also a Tori and Nick's Mom stan so that helped boost my rating lmao.
