I've been waiting for this book for many months. And you know what? I READ IT ALL IN ONE EVENING. ONE!
My last six reads were a plunge into the abyss: dark, sad, desperate, and absolutely depressive. Now, don't get me wrong: these are normally the kinds of books I enjoy (we all have different tastes 💅🏻).
But when the cold and gloomy weather outside mirrors the mood of my books, it becomes a bit overwhelming, especially with a bunch of responsibilities at the end of the year.
Heartstopper was a bright sunray in all these rainy clouds. Just as I read the first few pages, I started smiling so much! I missed the good old cheesy story that made my heart melt! So as soon as I opened the book, there was no way back: I decided to leave all the troubles to the real world and stay with Nick, Charlie, and their friends for this evening!
The novel is, as usual, very fast-paced, and I was not very ready for it. I could not stop turning the pages, I JUST COULD NOT. I am not going to spoil anything, but AAAAA! This part is just an emotional rollercoaster! Too many things are happening, way too many..!
Despite being a bit predictable, this book made me enjoy every single page of it. Brace yourself for a cliffhanger ending: waiting a whole year for the next part will be a challenge! I know I could just read “Nick and Charlie” that tells about the events after Heartstopper #6, but I refuse to spoil the very last part for myself. So I choose the agony of anticipation 💅🏻
If you haven’t read Heartstopper yet, go and do it. I am serious! Being absolutely not a romance person, I recommend you a romance book with my entire heart. You will feel so alive after reading it!
