This Winter was a very quick read and Nick and Charlie took about the amount of time to read as a Heartstopper volume. Alice is the author of several YA contemporary novels about teenage disasters: SOLITAIRE (published when she was 19), RADIO SILENCE, I WAS BORN FOR THIS, and LOVELESS (a New York Times bestseller). años después de empezar su relación, vemos el paso que sigue pata estos 2 bellos seres, Nick se va a la universidad. I remember the exact moment I decided to take it, walking into my room after getting a glass of water to find Charlie curled up so beautifully in my bed, the orange street-lamp light shining on his skin, and I felt like if I was going to die, this.

Seriously my emotional bandwidth went from happy and cosy to sad and depressed right smack into slap happy and snug territory.

I do like that we got a more 'realsistic' view of their relationship, becase in Heartstopper it seemed as if they were the 'perfect couple', but apart from that I wasn't a huge fan of this book. I just wish it was longer, I don’t feel like I’ll ever be fully satisfied because I love Nick and Charlie too much!

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.When I started this journey I never thought it would get to this, but they are genuinely my favourite fictional couple. It was really nice to hear directly from Tori again, since we only otherwise hear from her in Solitaire.
