This is my Heartstopper. A sweet, feel-good queer romance with a dash of hockey. The T-rated version of all those thinly-veiled hockey RPF books. The rest of the team is charming too, especially Shitty. Tone was a little saccharine for my taste but I can't deny that Bittle's hesitancy over coming out to his parents made me get up and pace for a few minutes. Read it in a day.
