           This was cute. Not as cute as Heartstoppers, but cute. I like that we got to see Nick and Charlie argue. It makes it feel more real.

A short novella based on the beloved characters from the graphic novel Heartstopper and Alice Oseman's debut novel Solitaire, which was praised as 'The Catcher in the Rye for the digital age' by The Times. Absence makes the heart grow fonder, right? CHARLIE: "I have been going out with Nick Nelson for two years. He likes rugby, Formula 1, dogs, the Marvel universe, the sound felt-tips make on paper, rain and drawing on shoes. He also likes me." NICK: "Things me and Charlie Spring do together include: Watch films. Sit in the same room on different laptops. Text each other from different rooms. Make out. Make food. Make drinks. Get drunk. Talk. Argue. Laugh. Maybe we're kind of boring. But that's fine with us." Everyone knows that Nick and Charlie are the perfect couple - that they're inseparable. But now Nick is leaving for university, and Charlie will be left behind at Sixth Form. Everyone's asking if they're staying together, which is a stupid question - they're 'Nick and Charlie' for God's sake! But as the time to say goodbye gets inevitably closer, both Nick and Charlie question whether their love is strong enough to survive being apart. Or are they delaying the inevitable? Because everyone knows that first loves rarely last forever...

Nick and Charlie

this is my first time reading by an audiobook and it was goodddd! i've been undermining alice oseman's story but it's actually ghastly writing.

this book is such a lovely addition to the chick-verse (nick and charlie don’t know their ship name)! it is so amazing to read they get a happy ending, even though it got sad in the end i felt super happy and LOVE it <3

I loved to see Nick and Charlie be a couple and go through rough patches as couples do..was very sad though when I heard they broke up

badly needed a pick me up after this week :/ needless to say i wasn’t impressed

as much as i love heartstopper (both the graphic novels and the show), i don’t think writing is alice oseman’s best medium of choice. i rly don’t vibe with her writing style talaga (see: my review on her other book, radio silence). it just isn’t for me, and that’s ok

A lovely and moving story. The feelings are relatable and the actions comprehensible.

The book doesn't shy away from "difficult" topics like mental health. It perfectly describes the every day struggles with them. 

 The book is not that long, so you can read it on a rainy afternoon.

This was cute, not as good as the graphic novels, but cute nonetheless.

It was a great book and recommend reading it.

It was a very good book and I cried. However, there was just one story which was disappointing.

I love Nick and Charlie as a couple. Cute gay love.

“No, but –” he shakes his head – “you’re Nick and Charlie.”
I laugh. “What does that mean?”
“It’s…” He laughs too, a nervous expulsion of air. “You’re… it’s hard to explain. It’s like, if you had to provide evidence for soul mates, everyone would pick you two.”

Hi <3 he/him

I always think there’s no possible way for me to fall deeper in love with these characters until I read another story featuring them and prove myself wrong.

Nick and Charlie’s banter never fails to leave me laughing and I can never not audibly say awe when they have their cute moments.

Reading this made me remember when I was young and scared of losing them. Relationships have rocky moments and arguments sometimes are inevitable but it’s important how you come back from them.

“I love this. I love us. I love our weird, boring life.”

I’m so happy I took the time to read this novella.

Nick liebt Charlie Nick und Charlie sind das perfekte Paar. Aber Nick wird bald zum Studium in eine andere Stadt ziehen, und Charlie muss noch irgendwie sein letztes Schuljahr hinter sich bringen. Alle wollen von ihnen wissen, ob sie zusammen bleiben werden - eine dämliche Frage, finden beide, sie sind Nick-und-Charlie! Doch als der Abschied näher rückt, fragen sie sich tatsächlich, ob ihre Liebe stark genug für eine Fernbeziehung ist. Oder machen sie sich nur etwas vor? Schließlich weiß doch jeder, dass die erste Liebe nicht für die Ewigkeit ist ... Die eNovella über Nick und Charlie setzt kurz nach ›Solitaire‹ ein.

(4/5) eBook - 24 minutes - This is my favourite of the Solitaire series. It felt realistic and honest, and it was enjoyable to read.
