Spoilers Ahead
This is, so far, my most favourite Heartstopper book ever. The story is immaculate, as always, and so is the art style. 
We follow Charlie as his mental health is really really bad. He has to be hospitalised, and Nick has to find a way to help him, despite not really knowing how he can do that. Their relationship is still going strong, even when they have to do long distance due to Charlie being voluntarily hospitalised. 
The way Nick deals with eating disorders and Charlie having one is absolutely perfect. It’s exactly what people need to see, and I’m glad there’s an awareness being spread about it. I wish I could describe the absolute joy I feel from reading these books, but I genuinely can’t. They’re just beautiful stories, and I love how everyone has become friends and interlinked and the amazing development their characters have gone through. It’s a really beautiful love series. I’ll be disappointed when it ends.
