Ohhhh this was a sad one :')
In this volume, the story focuses on Charlie's journey through getting help for his mental health/recovery. We also see how Nick experiences all of this. I think it was well handled, I really enjoyed Nick's mom mini-monologue on how to help someone with mental illness/how to support them without needing to fix them. i like how Charlie's issues are linked to what he experienced previously (bullying, assault, etc.)
I liked seeing more of the family on both sides, Nick's and Charlie's.. especially Tori. She is a great character and very suportive.
This was very good, I enjoyed it much more than the previous one. While being very sad and so far probably the most serious out of all the previous installement, there are still a few sweet and cheesy moments between N & C.
Also Henry cracked me up, he looks like my dog
