Alice Oseman talks about some very serious and important topics in this latest volume. While this is still a very cute story this one is mostly about mental health. Volume 3 ended on a pretty serious note and that tone continued in this fourth volume. This is one of my favorite graphic novel series ever and I just love these characters so much.

Reviews were not kind to the first book that he wrote after his rehabilitation. It contains his truly go for broke endings that work better than in some of his others (not for Castle Rock or its residents, mind).
