Hollis' 4 star review
I've said it before and I'll say it again : this was pure wholesome sweetness. Even though it wasn't only pure wholesome sweetness and I may have welled up a few times along the way.
This might have been one of the all-around happier instalments we've had lately and it feels very deserved. Charlie is still on his road to recovery. Nick is still having a bit of an identity crisis. But they have both evolved, alone and together, and we see them make great strides forward in this fifth volume.
I'm so glad this wasn't the end we thought it would be because I definitely want more but it was the perfect little slice of joy and boy did I need that.
Another thing I've said before which makes this review a lot of regurgitation b u t if you haven't yet give these characters a go, you should absolutely get on it now. I promise you'll fall in love. There will be no regrets. Highly recommend.
