This was just the ideal read for me tonight - it was short, required very little brainpower, and featured characters I loved.  Nick & Charlie are a cute couple, and I’ve really enjoyed seeing their relationship progress through the Heartstopper books.  While short, this book provides some angst - Nick’s finished school & will be off to Uni but Charlie’s got one more year of school left.  I liked how this didn’t shy away from showing teenagers being dramatic AF, and that teenage relationships can be messy.  I was happy that they worked everything out and I’d love to see more of them & this universe.  While I didn’t enjoy it as much as the other books in this series, it still made me smile.
