    Nick and Charlie, narrators Huw Parmenter and Sam Newton bring listeners up to date on the couple’s relationship as the end of the school year approaches. As Nick talks more about being excited to go to university, Charlie worries their relationship won’t withstand the distance and fears being left behind. Oseman’s writing is incredibly appealing, and in alternating first-person chapters, Parmenter and Newton bring out all of Charlie and Nick’s humor, charm, teenage angst, and swoony romance.
