Heartstopper Volume One (Heartstopper, #1) by Alice Oseman
Heartstopper: Volume One

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...

I too have read all the available volumes that are currently out. As you said Sree, it really is a sweet little series.

Not a huge amount of plot, it's more about the characters. It's very heartfelt.


Stephanie (teff1979) | 69 comments Very fast read, I read book one in about an hour or less. I totally agree with Sree. Reading the the authors note got me wanting to read her novel Solitaire that the boys are mentioned in.

I just went online to try and grab a copy of Solitaire for my daughter to read. She needs a hardcopy of the book since she doesn't like to read on digital. Holy Moly! They are hard to find! On Amazon the cheapest I could find was a used copy for over $35. But this mom did a little more digging and found one at Half Price Books for just $11 including shipping. Mom win for the day!


Kaitlin Simpson (kaitlinmary) Just read this! I absolutely adored it. It was so sweet and cute, plus it was a really quick read. I think I finished this in 30 minutes. I can’t wait to read the other volumes!


Lana (aluisbudding) | 8 comments i loved it, so sweet and finished it super fast. so excited to read the other two books and can't wait for the fourth one that comes out in may
