Love the story and artwork. Fantastic series! BUT the copy I received has pages in mixed up order. See my video…

Definitely a great follow up! This series is super wholesome, and while the stakes are very low it’s probably one of the best coming out narratives I’ve ever read. I just wish there was a big more going on. The main plot is very strong, but I just feel like it needed something else to fill out the edges.

It is so wonderful to see a gay love story be handled as wholesomely and tenderly as this novel. This book is pure joy. This would have been a game-changer for me 10 years ago, I am elated that teens and adults today can grow up with something like this. A lot of queer novels tend to talk about dark topics: HIV, homophobic parents, drugs, ostracization etc. It's probably because the people writing and producing the content were young during an era when it was tougher to be queer than now. Heartstopper does not shy away from the tough issues but always the main theme is a loving relationship! A tender and beautiful romance between two boys. I would have loved this during my high school days. Get the books! they are a quick read filled with beautiful comic like drawings and then see the show on Netflix!

Nick and Charlie are my absolute sons! I will protect them at all costs! After watching heartstopper on Netflix I had to find out more about them. I just fell in love with their story and can never stop smiling seeing them. I think nick and Charlie are so well liked because of how relatable they are. The heartstopper series as well as the nick and Charlie sequel also have great LGBTQ+ representation in them. There’s a character for everyone and representation in literature and in media matter. Do yourself a favor and purchase these books and fall in love with them yourselves. I will say my only downside is for all of the volumes 1-4, they all can be read in about 30 min each. The books are big and a bit heavy but it’s graphic novel style so it’s mostly pictures and the dialogue is minimal. I got through the entire set of 4 books in about 2 hours

My Son read the entire series and loved these books.

Este volumen fue ideal para hacer de los personajes adolescentes más creíbles y redondeados. Aquí la autora tuvo la oportunidad de hacer que nos introdujéramos en la cabeza de uno de los protagonistas, y la forma en la que fue desenvolviendo la trama se sintió bastante natural. ¡Entusiasmado por seguir leyendo más de esta historia! Las expectativas ahora están bastante altas, estoy intrigado en ver cómo continúan las cosas.

Un second tome tout aussi mignon que son premier. Ici, l’histoire continue là où nous nous sommes arrêtés dans le tome précédent. Le tome se concentre davantage sur Nick et sur son parcours de coming-out.. J’ai adoré la suite des aventures amoureuses de Charlie et Nick! Les dessins sont toujours aussi mignons et une fois de plus Alice Oseman nous livre une histoire touchante, douce et addictif ! En bref, une suite tout aussi adorable. Des thèmes forts sont abordés avec justesses et douceurs. On parle de la bisexualité, de coming-out, de l’acceptation de l’entourage ( familles et amies). J’ai hâte de me procurer le tome 3 afin de le lire ! J’ai aussi vu récemment la saison2 sur Netflix et c’était vraiment incroyable !

Libro bonito bonito para quienes disfruten estas lecturas. He tenido la oportunidad de leerlo y estoy gratamente sorprendido con su final. La calidad de los materiales del libro es excepcional, lo que garantiza una durabilidad prolongada. Además, su diseño ergonómico facilita su uso diario, aportando comodidad y eficiencia. Sin duda, recomiendo este producto a quienes buscan fiabilidad y excelencia en su categoría.

Ok, não é sempre que eu digo isto... Mas este segundo volume TOTALMENTE superou o primeiro. Ao mesmo tempo em que Alice Oseman mantém os altos níveis de fofura do qual nós já fomos agraciados lá na parte 1, aqui ela tem tempo também para se esmerar por momentos mais delicados e dramáticos, no que bati palmas de pé. Enquanto no anterior, o foco parecia ser Charlie e a sua paixão secreta por Nicki, desta vez os holofotes se voltam para o jogador de Rúgbi - dele se descobrindo, e aceitando quem ele é, e toda esta jornada pela qual o personagem precisa passar. Se antes eu já gostava dele, agora eu gosto ainda mais - pois ele é um rapaz adorável, e que merece ser protegido. Se no volume 1 eu li tudo do dia para a noite, aqui eu decidi me deliciar com cada quadrinho e página desenhada - afinal, o volume 3 só deve sair no começo do ano que vem. E, não vou negar, fui muito agraciado por isto, pois eu senti que a narrativa da série ganhou mais corpo e volume nesta segunda parte, e a autora trata assuntos chaves com tanta delicadeza e responsabilidade que passam uma mensagem positiva para o leitor e também deixa os personagens mais tridimensionais. Sim, a trama continua simples e bastante cotidiana... Mas é inegável o carisma que ela trás para as personalidades e os diálogos. . Enfim, sem surpresas: Fui cativado por completo. E necessito da continuação. É isto.

Really cute comic, great representation of LGBTQ +. I love it
