Heartstopper started as a tiny passion project and now it's a whole book. WHAT. Nick and Charlie have been close to my heart ever since I wrote them into my first book SOLITAIRE in 2012, and I'm so, SO happy to be telling their story while also doing the thing I always said I wanted to do when I grew up - make comics.

I really enjoyed the Netflix adaptation but don’t think I’m the target demographic for these graphic novels. Reading the comics makes it a little too obvious this was written by someone who isn't a man, which is personally distracting to me, whereas the adaptation helped bring the characters to life with queer boys playing the roles. The comics aren’t for me, but I’m glad it’s led to more opportunities within mainstream media.

i went into this expecting a heart-skipping-a-beat level of adorable.
and much as it hurts my hateful heart to admit it...i'd call this a success.
i hate writing graphic novel reviews, so here's a sentence:
this was cute and nice and i liked the art even if it felt like the shortest thing ever. and if the emotional aspect didn't always hit.
(bonus half sentence so i can be a grump.)

“You can't tell whether people are gay by what they look like. And gay or straight aren't the only two options”.
¿Podemos hablar de que esta es la novela gráfica que ha surgido sobre la faz de la Tierra? Es absolutamente preciosa, pura y real.
En Heartstopper nos encontramos con Nick y Charlie, dos chicos británicos que van al mismo colegio y que, a pesar de que se conocen, nunca han hablado mucho. Sin embargo, en un momento algo cambia y se empiezan a volver los mejores amigos... y quizá algo más. Pero, para que algo suceda, uno tiene que dejar atrás cierta relación tormentosa y otro debe entender qué son las cosas que está sintiendo.
De verdad, creo que no me voy a cansar de decir lo linda y sencilla que es esta historia. Son dos chicos que se conocen, se hacen amigos y, poco a poco, se enamoran. No hay dramas enrevesados ni tramas complicadas, son sólo ellos dos tratando de entender qué sienten por el otro y por qué aman tanto el tiempo que pasan juntos.
Alice Osman logró plasmar en estas páginas una historia inolvidable y que nos deja queriendo muchísimo más.

Finally!
Ha sido recibirlo y leerlo. Me habían dicho lo rápido que se leía esta historia, pero no me lo he creído al cien por cien hasta que lo he hecho. Te introduce de manera brutal en la atmósfera, en la vida de los personajes, y eres incapaz de soltarlo hasta que lo terminas.
La historia de Charlie y Nick me ha llegado el corazoncito. No solo por lo que pasan ellos, sino por algunas de las subtramas. En todas ellas me he podido sentir identificado, en mayor o menor medida, pero algo se removía en mi interior.
Se tratan temas como la homofobia, los prejuicios... Y aunque no se ahonde en ello, no es necesario porque se entiende con los sentimientos de los personajes, muy bien reflejados a través de las páginas. Además, el ritmo me ha parecido el correcto, y de hecho, muchísimo más acertado que en otras historias similares. El amor se va produciendo poco a poco, en aumento, y eso es lo que hace bonita y diferente a esta historia.
El dibujo acompaña increíblemente a la historia: es tierno, dulce, sencillo pero con detalles. Así podría resumir la lectura de este fenómeno literario. Aunque, he de decir, Dos chicos juntos se me ha hecho bastante breve. ¡Necesito más! Espero que la editorial no tarde demasiado en traer la continuación y la tercera parte, porque ahora Nick y Charlie son mis hijos y necesito cuidarlos.

I picked up this series to read only because Alice Oseman wrote it. I was skeptical about her work when I picked up her book Radio Silence to read some time ago. But I loved reading it. So I had high expectations about this series and wasn't disappointed.
I appreciate the courage and effort shown by the author in writing this book. Not many authors show the courage to do what she did after publishing two successful novels. She took it as a challenge and enjoyed writing and illustrating Heartstopper. It started as a webcomic, which she later published in four volumes and now has a Netflix adaptation. The fifth and final volume will be published soon. I have to admit that this concept was great and executed in one of the best ways possible.
She brilliantly connects the characters from Solitaire into Heartstopper. We can enjoy this book as a standalone series even if we haven't read Solitaire.
Heartstopper is not just another YA romance. What makes it different from other YA romance books? The author brilliantly uses this opportunity to discuss so many vital topics through this series. Teenage is the age that is considered the most difficult to deal with in a human being's life. It is the age where we will have a lot of physiological and psychological stress. It is challenging to educate a teenager regarding crucial topics. The author uses this golden opportunity to garner the attention of teenagers using a great story, and then she discusses these vital topics in the simplest way possible. She tries to discuss some vital topics like the queer romance, LGBTQIA+ life and their struggles, bullying, anorexia nervosa, OCD, and self-harm. I have seen many young adults committing suicide due to the lack of awareness of these topics. I wish this Heartstopper series had been published at least ten years before, which could have helped to save many of these lives.
My favorite three lines from this book.
“It is very rude to speculate about people’s sexuality”
“Excuse me- where is your ‘can do’ attitude?”
“You know you say sorry a lot.”
This series will entertain you and educate you in a subtle yet very effective manner. The illustrations by the author are all excellent. This is a series that people from all age groups should never miss.

Update 4/24/22: the miniseries is DELIGHTFUL!
Was this absolutely adorable? YES. Do I need to immediately read them all? Also yes. Heartstopper by Alice Oseman is such a sweet and lovely graphic novel of two boys on the cusp of romance that will certainly give you all the feels and feel relatable for anyone who has ever loved. Seriously, reading this I was suddenly 16 again going through the bittersweet maelstrom of emotions of a first big crush and all the swirling feelings of euphoria and anxiety that come with it. This book is absolutely perfect, well aside from only being the first part of a larger series but still. Oseman perfectly captures chaotic, romantic emotion in such simple yet effective artistic storytelling that gave me chills and had me devouring the whole graphic novel in a single, blissful sitting.
This book covers a lot of ground in this romantic set-up for the series. Charlie is a skinny runner who had been outed as gay and bullied for it in the past. Nick is a tough yet kind rugby player a year older than Charlie. When they are sat next to each other in home room, they quickly become friends and are enthralled yet sometimes confused about their emotions for each other. We have Charlie leaving behind an abusive relationship (TW: sexual assault occurs in this book) and Nick staying up all night Googling to come to terms with his feelings. Is he straight, is he gay, is there space for both? This portion really hit me and is a major reason why I love to celebrate books like this. I wish this existed when I was 16 and confused and needed reassurance that this was okay and normal instead of hiding it and internalizing a lot of shame. I wanted to be the cool queer elder and hug Nick and be like “it’s cool buddy, and there are many of us.”
The late night technology scenes are some of the best aspects of the book. Oseman is great at showing the trepidation on sending a text that reveals your feelings and we watch the characters write something, erase and try again over and over (before, say, ultimately sending a heart emoji because this book does an excellent job and drawing out the will-they-won’t-they in a realistic fashion that keeps the romantic tension high and the reader flipping pages). Something else I found really effective is the way large conversations are depicted with a quick facial sketch of the speaker at the end of their speech bubble. It allows Oseman to put a lot of dialogue into a single frame and sort of recreates the way individual speakers are shown in, say, a group text. So much of modern romance blossoms in digital landscapes and Oseman does well by capturing this.
The art is lovely too. It is fairly simple yet manages to convey a lot of action and emotion. There are multiple small frames of each page and Oseman uses the white space as well as frame size and things like leaves in the margins to convey passage of time, anxieties, action and current emotions in a really productive way. This is a work of art where all the individual aspects come together to create a feeling in unique and creative ways.
Pick this up, seriously. Once you start reading you will suddenly find yourself at the end eager for more. This is a lovely and heartfelt story that feels so true and I’m so glad stories like this exist in the world today. I saw myself in both of these characters and it meant a lot to me. Thank you, Oseman.

I read volume one last night and I end up crying like a baby, you know? Someone recommended me this graphic novel and I was like "yeah, let's give it a try", and it was the best decision that I've done this year.
I actually don't know how to explain this, but I loved it. I wish I could've read this one before. I really needed something like this.
Anyways, I'm going to read the next volume because, wHAT WAS THAT ENDING??????

*cackling*
I was worried I wouldn't like this because it was advertised as cute and I mostly read dark books with lots of pain. But this was so much more adorable than I thought it would be. Nick and Charlie deserve the world. I love how they helped each other be brave. Something about this story touches me in the recesses of my soul that haven't seen light since 2019.

****MY MOST RE-read Book/series****
I have lost count of how many times I have reread this series. Both with physical copies or at my IPad or at Webtoons.
I will need this series forever!
Please give me a Nick 🥺 Season 2 adaptation is sooooooooooooo……..help me!
May 2022....maybe in May 2032 too
😵when you cannot fall asleep without watching the adaptation EVERYDAY
😵When the Netflix adaptation is so accurate that I get to see the characters in my head as real 2️⃣0️⃣2️⃣2️⃣ You are amazing!!!
*Bawling my eyes out (well who cries this hard at midnight because everything's so cute 😭🤧) because it's Nick and Charlie
*Ignore this: 1st reaction when they suddenly announced the release date 😂) ****ARE YOU KIDDING ME??!!! NETFLIX ADAPTATION COMING ON 22ND APRIL!!!! 😭Sad story 🤧 watching it on 24th April cos I was in another world.
I am so happy with the cast!!!!!
"You can't tell whether people are gay by what they look like.
And gay or straight aren't the only two options.
Anyway, it's very rude to speculate about people's sexuality."
That's still the issue.
*May 2021: Re-read because. Because.
It's too short. I half breathed. But got to love them nevertheless.
I am really glad I reread this volume because this edition I read is edited and cleansed perfect.
The first time I read the first volume was two years ago and it seemed so messy like how it's available at Webtoons.
(Editing Tam on 10th November 2024: it’s so much better at Webtoons now. PURRRRFECT!)
And now I remember why I really don't like Ben Hope. Yes, he's forgettable but he's the character you don't want to remember.
He clearly doesn't know what consent means. Manipulative and a bully. Reminds me of some people in school.
We will know why Charlie has been the way he is. Lots of toxic people in his life before he met Nick.
*Character education time:
1. Full name of Nick 👉 Nicholas Nelson
2. Full name of Char 👉 Charlie Spring
3. Nellie 👉 BORF
4. Victoria 'Tori' Spring 👉 best fictional sister ever saying the iconic line "I don't think he's straight"
5. Miss Singh 👉 the best P. E. teacher who's like a big umbrella which would protect everything and anything during a rainy day
And Nick is 18 months older to Charlie. And why is this making me smile. I think I have a problem.
Is this necessary? You bet 😝
Now I understand why I rated it low here when I first read it 👇
*I don't know this person who wrote the following review years ago. She rated it 3 stars.
The characters are cute. But the art is super congested and the dialogue bubbles so haphazard.
I want to have an edited version because the rest of this comic series has already stolen my heart 💚
