Can my 14yr old daughter read this? Is it an appropriate read for that age?

Shawna Finnigan Yep! I've only read the first two volumes but there's nothing inappropriate in the series so far :)
Nat yes, she can. the book is designed for teenagers. the two boys charlie and nick go through normal high school drama. it's no different than any other YA book that's a romance story. the book series is very good, it's honestly a love story anyone wants. charlie and Nick's story is amazing and it would be a shame if she wouldn't be allowed to read or watch the show.
Ije the Devourer of Books Yes. You can also check it out for yourself on line. https://heartstoppercomic.tumblr.com/...

I would describe it as YA which also appeals to adults. It is a great series.

Ariella I feel like the story is good for her to read, but there is a lot of swearing.
Prerazmišljavanje - Katarina Kostić It's the perfect read for that age, even for younger readers, all the sensitive topics are handled perfectly and with care to young minds, and the representation of good parents is great!
BevS Your daughter will LOVE you for it. I've read all 4 volumes and am eagerly awaiting volume 5, which sadly will be the end 😭. As far as I can remember, there is NO sex and what there is is off page...there is a lot of kissing and hugging though 😉, and I would gladly read many more series with Nick and Charlie, they are two of my very favourite characters.
Stella some swearing homophobia but definitely fine
Esme_weatherwax Read it first and decide yourself. The later strips do bring up sex a bit but there is nothing shown and the boys I believe are 17 at the time. It's a sweet story but maybe to old for 14. Really it depends on your child to be honest.
Maria Sure it is, and you should read it too! It's really interesting to also understand our kids and the way they communicate and relate to each other
Nesinha Eu recomendo que sua filha leia é muito lindo o livro e a sua história em geral que aborda muito a comunidade LGBTQIA+, mas acho que a partir do terceiro e em seguida o quarto volume começam a aparecer alguns gatilhos que foram um pouco fortes, como transtornos alimentares, depend~encia emocional, na minha opinião ficou um pouco mais sério que os outros dois volumes. Mas mesmo assim recomendo que compre á sua filha porque aborda como ajudar pessoas nessas situações e maneiras como superar essas dificuldades. ENTÃO SIM, POR FAVOR COMPRE À SUA FILHA PORQUE ELA VAI AMAR!!
Smeagol my 9 year old read the first 2 volumes. my 12 year old read all 5. its a great book. she's sure to love it!
Jazmyn Burch I am reading this book and it is good and I have fished it and it is bad but I am 12 years old and I have read all the books and I have to read the 5 book of heartstopper it is really good but do not let any kids like 10 to 6 year old read this
