if you are having a hangover from heartstopper, this is the next graphic novel you should pick up!
I could not get enough of this college gay hockey graphic novel!!

What if a figure skater and baker, Eric Bittle, joins a NCAA hockey team! We follow Eric on his video blog as he navigates his junior and senior year at Samwell University. He and former team mate Jack are officially an item. While Eric navigates the ups and downs of college life, Jack has to figure out where he fits as a closeted gay pro athlete.


This graphic novel is all about figuring out who you are and loving that person. It shows the ups and downs of being on a team. This was just overall such a fun read. I squealed with joy so many times at the cuteness.
