- Reviewed in the United States on August 16, 2024the heartstopper series is adorable, wholesome, warm, topical, inclusive and all of this is encapsulated in the 4th novel. charlie and nick finally get to focus on relationship milestones/issues that aren’t necessarily lgbtq+ focused. this is an important series for queer teens with amazing writing and the book arrived perfectly! 10/10
- Reviewed in the United States on May 3, 2022“Heartstopper Volume 4” by Alice Oseman is still full of queer joy, friendship, & romance, but also a bit more focused on mental health & recovery. It’s very careful in how it approaches sensitive topics, like anorexia, self-harm, disordered eating, & recovery. These could be triggering topics, but I think Alice generally does a good job at presenting them in a way without sensationalizing or making them seem unsolvable or easily solvable. It’s definitely a volume that makes one think & has made me personally think I need to do more (& maybe even ask for help 😬) myself.
But also. It’s still sweet. & romantic. & shows that we all need lots of people & relationships in our lives (not just the romantic kind). I think especially given the last few years, this is more important than ever to read.
Also, also. It’s just a truly beautiful series. Please pick it up (or watch the show too, as it’s the best of adaptions, Oseman was very involved wrote for it too)! I can’t express how much I would recommend this series for EVERYONE.
Now I just have to wait for Volume 5. Plus get “Solitaire” & it’s two spin-off novellas “This Winter” & “Nick & Charlie,” which touch on the main couple (or feature them) but also flesh out Tori (best big sister, full of big sister magic) one of my favorite secondary characters. Also “Radio Silence” which takes place a bit after & feature Aled, another secondary friend character.
Also, also, also… two of the teachers are my favorite & I love that there’s a reminder than one can find love at any age (especially for those of us who missed out on youthful love).
Read it! Watch it! Fall in love!
- Reviewed in the United States on December 9, 2023Heartstopper Volume 4 continues to enchant readers with the heartwarming and beautifully crafted story of Charlie and Nick's evolving relationship. As a fan of the series, I found this installment to be a compelling and emotional continuation of their journey.
Alice Oseman's storytelling prowess shines once again, seamlessly weaving together moments of joy, vulnerability, and growth. The characters feel authentic, and their struggles and triumphs resonate with a universal charm that keeps readers emotionally invested.
The artwork by Oseman complements the narrative impeccably, capturing the subtleties of expressions and emotions. The visual storytelling adds a layer of depth to the already engaging plot, making it a truly immersive experience.
Volume 4 delves deeper into the complexities of self-discovery, friendship, and love, showcasing Oseman's ability to tackle sensitive topics with grace and authenticity. The pacing is spot-on, allowing readers to savor each moment while eagerly anticipating what comes next.
Whether you're a longtime fan of Heartstopper or new to the series, Volume 4 is a delightful addition that delivers on its promise of warmth and relatability. It leaves readers eagerly anticipating the next chapter in Charlie and Nick's journey. Five stars for another captivating installment that tugs at the heartstrings!
