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.

I do not read many YA or Graphic Novels, but I love the Heartstopper series. It’s so full of heart and emotion. Alice does a great job of getting in the head of teenagers dealing with some very heavy and emotional things. Nick and Charlie are adorable and lovable.  Volume 5 tackles a lot of big relationship milestones. I cannot wait for volume 6.
