The Heartstopper graphic novels are always a delight to read. The illustrations and the plot lines in each one are really fantastic and I highly recommend them to both teens and adults. I have NOT watched the series on Netflix because I am worried that it won't live up to the books. This volume focuses on a main character's journey with mental health and inpatient care. Oseman did a wonderful job navigating these difficult topics and I believe that some readers will be inspired by the story to also ask for the help that they need. I am excited to continue with this series once the next volume is released.
