no 3.75 spoko, fajne, ale troszkę nie rozumiem aż takiego fenomenu... ale ok - jestem już chyba za stara, (ostatnio w przychodni przyjmował rezydent młodszy ode mnie więc to sobie brutalnie uświadomiłam x) jednakowoż dobrze że tak fajna rzecz jest fenomenem wśród młodzieży ^^

Such a sweet, heartwarming series. Great for kids navigating any kind of highschool relationship, but especially queer kids or those who aren't but need help filling an empathy gap. Also good to give parents ideas about how to support their queer teen! I love reading a romance that's mostly just really positive instead of focused around miscommunication and brooding. What a great and realistic portrayal of queer joy!

These were cute and I’m all for the amount of healthy communication all these characters model. We had Twilight growing up… these relationships are so, so much healthier.

I hate to say it— but I liked the Netflix series more!! Shout out to Abbie and George for that recommendation.

Charlie and Nick are the kind of couple I wish I'd been a part of in high school. Heck, they're the kind of couple I wish I were a part of *now*! I didn't realize until I got to the end of book 5 that there is one more on the horizon. I've seen the Netflix series and am happy to report it follows the graphic novels pretty closely. There were a few character changes, and some stories were elaborated, but much of the dialog comes straight from the books. As in Solitude (Tori—the narrator of that book—is Charlie's older sister), there are many frank discussions of mental health issues and other situations faced by teens, such as safe sex. Still, reading these leaves me nostalgic for that time in my life when choosing a college major seemed like the most important decision in my life.

Califique cada libro por su cuenta en mí biblioteca. Si le tendría que dar un puntaje en general serían cuatro estrellas porque fue un libro que a medida que iba creciendo, iban saliendo, entonces veía como crecian los personajes conmigo. Siento que es una lectura fácil y rápida, de la que te enganchas rápido, y realmente no puedo creer que ya está por salir el ÚLTIMO, fue mucho tiempo leyendo sobre estos personajes, una historia hermosa

Vamos a tomar esto como el conjunto de todos los libros: NO LOS SOPORTO. Lo único peor que ni hablar de un problema es invisibilizarlo metiéndolo en un cuento de hadas rosa, y me toca la polla que el cómic se cargue incluso la novela DE LA MISMA PUTA AUTORA que era lo único que quedaba que contaba una historia realista sobre DOS PUTOS ADOLESCENTES DESCABEZADOS LIÁNDOSE.

De verdad estos dos me hacen sentir en un estado de tranquilidad,todo lo que toca el libro me hace sentir feliz.
Es una pena que los tenga que esconder en una caja dentro de mi escritorio para que mi mamá no se de cuenta que gasto mi dinero para leerlos.

Mega comfortowa powieść. Uważam że serial bardziej oddaje głębie przekazu i bardziej może uderzyć ale mam sentyment do komiksów.

The story was nice but the art style was okay, I’m an artist and I’m picky with my styles so that might be why I judge it. It wasn’t for me but it was nice to give it a try anyway.

so good that it hurts not to experience a love like that,a novel that leaves your cheeks hurting from smiling so much and at the same time makes you cry like a little baby.

Very rare that the best character is one of the leads, let alone a man, let alone a queer one but Nick Nelson is an icon, a legend and a moment.
