I decided to read Heartstopper after watching the Netflix series (like many others, probably). I was positively surprised when I realised that the graphic novel is as captivating as the show, but in a rather different way!

😍 The good:
Wholesome, relatable book with nice characters and a quite deep message. Can't wait to continue reading! I think that, out of this franchise, the graphic novel might be the most exciting for me. So simple, yet powerful: great to get you out of a reading slump, also.

😅 The not-so-good: 
The graphics are not amazing, but they are still really cute and fit the book well! Not much of a downside. At times, the graphic novel is a bit simple, but it's understandable and it still comes across as thoughtful.

This is my favourite book of all time. The whole series of books is my all time favourite. All of the characters are my favourite. The way Alice osman potrayed the characters was so sweet.
This book hold a special place in my heart.
Obviously Nick and Charlie is my favourite couple.
The friendship between Charlie, Tao, Elle and Isaac was so heartwarming.
The tension between Charlie and Nick is so sweet to read.

I was trying to wait until all of the books were out, but I couldn’t wait! This graphic novel is just pure queer joy! I remember loving the show so so much, and I love the book/graphic novel just as much! The story is just so amazing, and I loved the artwork! It is a super quick read (took me about 40 minutes ish)! I will be binging all of the other books immediately after this! 

Trans right read-a-thon book 2! The author, Alice Oseman, goes by she/they pronouns and considers themselves to be gender-fluid!
