Heartstopper Volume 2 by Alice Oseman
5.0
I ended up loving this volume even more than the first one! Who knew I would end up loving a graphic novel series so much!
Heartstopper volume 2 continues the story of Nick and Charlie. Nick battles with his identity and the idea of coming out as bisexual, especially to his loved ones.
This graphic novel series seems to perfectly balance being incredibly charming whilst focusing on some really important topics. My heart just fills with so much joy as I see Nick and Charlie’s story play out. I loved that this volume also gave a peek into the relationship between Tara and Darcy. I still adore Nellie the dog so I was really excited to see her appear again! I love the artwork, it has a simplicity but manages to perfectly convey events/expressions.
I actually had tears in my eyes towards the end of this book. I was able to really personally connect to Nick’s situation, and it moved me so much. I think this series of graphic novels could be an extremely important tool for young people and adults alike to confront their identities or stereotypes. What Alice Oseman has created in these novels is something truly beautiful. I can’t wait to see what happens to Nick and Charlie next!
I recommend this to anyone who loves graphic novels or anyone who wants to explore/learn more about LGBT+ identities.
