Actually so happy this wasn't the last volume, because Heartstopper truly means so much to so many people. I really am so happy to see asexuality depicted in the character of Tori, especially the depiction of being an asexual person dating someone who isn't, which really isn't talked alot about. Just a beautiful, heart-warming depiction of queer youth, all around.

I love how the topics have grown with the Heartstopper gang. The topics have matured and remain so relatable. This book gave equal space to Charlie and Nick on their own as well as together. The development and growth they go through it perfect. One of my top favourite volume of the series.

the fact that alice was going through sm while writing this and it still came out just as wonderful and wholesome 😭❤️ I love how kind and supportive this community and this fandom is, I'm sad volume 6 will be the last one but I'll always hold these novels close to my heart (and most likely reread them to death)

This installation of Nick and Charlie’s romance focuses on Nick deciding on the perfect university, despite it’s relative location to Charlie. It also focuses on Nick and Charlie taking their relationship to the next level and how intense that can feel as a teenager. I love Nick and Charlie and think they’re great role models for other teens for how to behave in teenage relationships.
