Book 36: Heartstopper by Alice Oseman 

Read March 20th, 2018

I really enjoy webcomics and was glad that I found this one the other day. Nick and Charlie are so adorable and I just kept wanting to read more and more. Right now I have read all updates up until today (March 26th, 2018) and cannot wait until the next one on April 1st. This was adorable and Charlie may have stolen my heart with everything.

What I believe is the best part of these comics is the beautiful illustrations. Alice is a very talented illustrator and that is what made me want to read these. I can't wait to read much more of her work and see what happens next with Nick and Charlie. 

Book 37: Nick and Charlie by Alice Oseman

Read March 20th, 2018

A great little love story that I just adore. I decided to read this right after finishing Heartstopper because I loved Nick and Charlie. This did not disappoint me in the slightest. It was great seeing the future of their relationship in this story and I really enjoyed them together. Sure first love doesn't always last and maybe I'm a "hopeless romantic" at heart but I rooted for them the whole time. They are adorable and I adored them in this just as much as in the comics.  

This follows Nick and Charlie in their last days together in school before Nick graduates. Everyone refers to them as 'Nick and Charlie' as if that will save them from the inevitability of how hard a long distance relationship will be. Nick is excited about college and Charlie is afraid of the separation and what will happen to them after Nick leaves. Both have to question if their relationship can take it. 

I know that I will be continuing on with Alice's other books after reading this because I really love her writing style. Also, her characters feel real and genuine. This is a great young adult story that I hope others will find. It's cute and also has some great messages that I enjoyed reading. 

Book 38: Prince of Flames (The Dragori)

by Ben Alderson

This world is very intriguing and I cannot wait to get into the other books eventually. It's a prequel to Ben's series and was just a quick tale of the prince and what has happened to him. I enjoyed this read and the world that Ben has created. I can't wait to see where it goes from here.
