Solitaire by Alice Oseman

challenging dark emotional sad
  • Plot- or character-driven? Character
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated

3.0

I love the Oseman-verse, especially Nick and Charlie's story, but I'm really glad I didn't start with this book as I might not have picked up any others. I should have known from the 'Catcher in the Rye' comparison as that book just irritated me. This one wasn't quite on that level but I still didn't feel a lot for any of the characters. I tried to make myself like Tori more because I had already been introduced to her in Heartstopper, but it didn't come easily. I probably won't revisit this one.
