Girls, gays, guys, and all our readers, we have a question. Is there anything better than watching teens fall in love?
Well, you let us know what you think. Meanwhile, we will tell you what actually better than that is. It’s watching two cute teenagers fall in love who are madly in love with each other to the point that they become reckless, fearless, and careless about the world. Nick and Charlie are those mad teenagers for us.
If there’s one thing we are sure of in our life, then it’s the fact that Heartstopper is the best show in the whole wide world with some of the best cast members. To think that someone would try to hurt our favorite source of happiness and sunshine actually hurts us. We have read the books as well as watched the show. So, don’t be mad if we are over-protective of our favorite people in the world.
Honestly, Alice Oseman is one of those writers who just write pages and pages of happiness and we are not afraid to say that we are addicted to it. There’s just something about reading books that aren’t about drama and entertainment but rather about good vibes and good vibes. And the fact that most of her books that we’ve read deal with such important issues without making it a big deal, it’s surreal because we don’t live in a world like that and as a person who longs for that kind of world, it’s a blessing.
If you like Heartstopper and want to dive deeper into the Oseman World, then you may start the books in this particular order.
