This was quite the adventure! I am so glad Charlie sought help and took care of his mental health. Seeing that he took the initiative to seeking help and stayed at a psychiatric hospital and how Nick does his own research and approaches the subject in a sensitive manner is such a great example of a healthy romantic relationship and good representation of how this situation can be handled. I like how Nick's mom understands him and his want to help Charlie, even offering to help Nick find a way to start the conversation.

I like that we speak about mental illnesses in this book, and how hard is for the patient and his family and loved ones. The mental institution should be not shamed also seeking help and treatment should be not taboo. Even when this book was the saddest jet in Heartstoper it's still good. Can't wait for more.
