Product Information

Writing for The National, Gemma McLaughlin praised the novels for being able to "capture the attention" through "the small stories that make up life" rather than plot twists and heavy drama. She called the story "infinitely welcoming with characters that seem like real life friends", singling out Charlie as "extremely likeable" and praising the novels' treatment of his mental health. [13] Publishers Weekly said that the novels' "leisurely pace and focus on everyday events ... allows the characters' relationship to develop in a natural, relatable way" and stated that the art style complemented the tone of the story. [14] Imogen Russell Williams in The Times Literary Supplement called Oseman's illustration style "loose and flowing" and said of the novels that they "[engage] directly with shame, fear and anxiety, bringing them sweetly into the light". [15] The A.V. Club included the webcomic on its list of "The best comics of 2018", with Caitlin Rosberg saying that it is "best defined by its kindness both to the characters and the reader". [16] Metaphrog also included the comic on The Herald's 2019 list of "The best comics and graphic novels of the year as chosen by comic creators". [17] McLaughlin, Gemma E. (2 May 2021).

Y aunque no se ahonde en ello, no es necesario porque se entiende con los sentimientos de los personajes, muy bien reflejados a través de las páginas. Además, el ritmo me ha parecido el correcto, y de hecho, muchísimo más acertado que en otras historias similares. El amor se va produciendo poco a poco, en aumento, y eso es lo que hace bonita y diferente a esta historia. In October of 2016, a zine featuring all the mini-comics was released. It was released in a few batches. All zines were signed and some were doodled in by Alice herself.

In September 2021, Turkey's Ministry of Family, Labor and Social Services labeled the publication "harmful" concluding that "some elements in the books might have harmful effects on the morality of the those aged below 18." [31] Following this decision, copies of the books are only allowed to be sold inside of sealed envelopes with the label "Harmful for children" in Turkey. [32] I appreciate the courage and effort shown by the author in writing this book. Not many authors show the courage to do what she did after publishing two successful novels. She took it as a challenge and enjoyed writing and illustrating Heartstopper. It started as a webcomic, which she later published in four volumes and now has a Netflix adaptation. The fifth and final volume will be published soon. I have to admit that this concept was great and executed in one of the best ways possible. You can't tell whether people are gay by what they look like. And gay or straight aren't the only two options”.
