Review:

As always, this was a great book. I loved all the extra bits and pieces and how pretty it was. I can’t remember if the other comic was in color, but for some reason, I remember it being. I will check when I get home. I love every character in this book, and Alice Oseman is always great.

Trigger Warnings:
Emotionally abusive relationship, One incident of a non-consensual kiss, Brief references to past homophobia, including uses of homophobic slurs, Brief references to past bullying

Synopsis From Book:

Charlie, a highly-strung, openly gay over-thinker, and Nick, a cheerful, soft-hearted rugby player, meet at a British all-boys grammar school. Friendship blooms quickly, but could there be something more...? Charlie Spring is in Year 10 at Truham Grammar School for Boys. The past year hasn't been too great, but at least he's not being bullied anymore. Nick Nelson is in Year 11 and on the school rugby team. He's heard a little about Charlie - the kid who was outed last year and bullied for a few months - but he's never had the opportunity to talk to him. They quickly become friends, and soon Charlie is falling hard for Nick, even though he doesn't think he has a chance. But love works in surprising ways, and sometimes good things are waiting just around the corner...
