This was such a cute novella!
I have read Heartstopper and seen the show, but have not read Solitaire yet, though I will be either next, or very soon.
This definitely made me more excited to read Solitaire as I loved Tori's POV in this. The moment where she thought that she wasn't important and only Charlie was, damn near broke me.
This book also reaffirmed that the show fucked up by not including Oliver. I love him, and I think he genuinely adds so much to the story. He's so sweet, happy, and innocent.
It was also nice to get more of Charlie's inner monologue, since we don't get it as much in Heartstopper considering it's a graphic novel.
Overall, an amazing addition to this world and I really enjoyed it.
