About this listen

A Number 1 Audible Best Seller

A short novella based on the beloved characters from Alice Oseman’s acclaimed debut novel Solitaire and graphic novel series Heartstopper – now a major Netflix series. From the author of the 2021 YA Book Prize winning Loveless.

Absence makes the heart grow fonder, right?

CHARLIE: 'I have been going out with Nick Nelson for two years. He likes rugby, Formula 1, dogs, the Marvel universe, the sound felt-tips make on paper, rain and drawing on shoes. He also likes me.'

NICK: 'Things me and Charlie Spring do together include: Watch films. Sit in the same room on different laptops. Text each other from different rooms. Make out. Make food. Make drinks. Get drunk. Talk. Argue. Laugh. Maybe we're kind of boring. But that’s fine with us.'

Everyone knows that Nick and Charlie are the perfect couple – that they’re inseparable. But now Nick is leaving for university, and Charlie will be left behind at Sixth Form. Everyone’s asking if they’re staying together, which is a stupid question – they’re ‘Nick and Charlie’ for God’s sake!

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. Or are they delaying the inevitable? Because everyone knows that first loves rarely last forever....

Amazing book! (Would recommend if you have read Heartstopper)

If you have read to heartstopper books/comic/WEBTOON I would highly recommend this although if you haven’t see or read them the story may not be as easy to follow. I love the differences in the voices of each character and loved how sarcastic Charlie sounds. If you enjoyed this I would also highly recommend listening to Solitaire. Overall I love this world and I love the characters!

BEST BOOK EVER

I’ve never really been into books much but since listening to this book I’ve been hooked on audible and audiobooks my next one to listen to is solitaire.
