These characters have my whole heart! These graphic novels have my whole heart. I don't think I liked this quite as much as the others but I still adored it. I can't exactly explain why but I feel like reading Nick and Charlie the novella before this made me not like it as much. This takes place before the events of the novella and knowing what happens made me go into this with certain expectations but regardless it was still fantastic! 

It's so good to just see how authentic Alice Oseman writes Nick and Charlie's relationship and how realistic of a teen relationship it is. The good, the bad, the ugly, and the beautiful. There's no  It just makes me wish I had a series like this when I was younger. I'm so excited for Vol 6 but also so heartbroken because it'll be the end for these characters.
