Boy meets boy. Boys become friends. Boys fall in love.
Charlie and Nick are at the same school, but they've never met ... until one day when they're made to sit together. They quickly become friends, and soon Charlie is falling hard for Nick, even though he doesn't think he has a chance.
But love works in surprising ways, and Nick is more interested in Charlie than either of them realise.
Read in german (my 2nd book read in german), but read before in english.
Ich werde dieses Buch immer lieben <3 so süß
If I could give this book 7 seven stars, I would, this is easily one of the best, most heartwarming pieces of media I have ever had the pleasure of consuming. It sucked me in like nothing has before, I read the entire thing in basically one sitting.

It's so??? Cute??? I can't??? Handle it???
I am a gay man in my 40s who grew up as a child and teenager in a small Conservative town. Growing up in that toxic environment as a gay boy was very difficult. You couldn't come out for the risk of rejection and violence from multiple sources.
Although I kind of knew I was gay at a very young age, it was made absolutely clear when I developed a mad crush on a boy in High School. That didn't develop into anything. He was straight, of course.

I lost so much of my life because I couldn't …

It is nice to see that the current young generations are in a much more accepting society of fluid sexualities and genders. That's not to say that it's not bad in a lot of areas, but it is drastically better than when I was a boy.
This graphic novel perfectly captures that young love.
I may or may not have read the entire webcomic (all 180 updates) in one sitting
and so the reread begins after binging the show twice in the past 24 hours
These boys are adorable and cute.
These boys are adorable and cute.
