#the responses to that post I did asking how many times people had watched Heartstopper MADE MY DAY

I’m curious about how you found Heartstopper! Like what’s your Heartstopper origin story?

I first read Heartstopper in Jan 2021. The third volume had just won the Goodreads reader’s choice award for best graphic novel, and I was wanting to read more queer stories and more graphic novels so I thought perfect! Two birds with one stone!

I ended up LOVING it way more than I thought I would, and my timing was perfect because right around the time I got caught up with the most recent updates online, THE SHOW GOT GREEN LIT!!! I remember literally screaming and throwing my phone across the room and dancing with joy.

Flash forward to now and I’ve got brainrot from reading it 20ish times and watching it 5 times, but I have no plans of stopping anytime soon.

#I think I’m going to start asking questions more on here because I want to interact with everyone more #the responses to that post I did asking how many times people had watched Heartstopper MADE MY DAY #also I feel so lucky to have Instagram stalked the cast from the day they were announced #if you only started following them after the show you missed some golden content #does anyone remember the kitconnorswagchallenge where everyone was bullying him by sharing pictures of themselves wearing sunglasses? #or Christmastime when joe had covid and kept doing Instagram q and a’s and complaining about how bored he was #or whenever they went to their first awards show together (I swear it was like February) #and they were taking pictures like Bash and Kit were Joe’s bodyguards 😂 #or just generally the ease they all had joining in with the fandom in the comments sections of everything #it was just a golden era where the cast felt like a secret #Heartstopper #heartstopper tv
