I discovered the writing of Alexis Hal through Boyfriend material and since then have laughed my through three other novels by this author plus occasionally got a little bit emotional. I can tell from the few chapters available that I'm also going to love Husband material. I cannot wait to be able to read the full book.

I'm hooked. The preview was everything I was hoping for and more. We see how much Oliver and Luc's relationship has grown since the last book, and how they're both better off for it, but we also get to see how even having a great relationship with the right person doesn't make all your problems disappear and won't stop life from keeping you on your toes. I can't wait to see how they handle the problems that cropped up in the first few chapters. Random note: I'm so glad there's still a lot of Luc content that isn't completely centered on Oliver. His character feels so real, which makes reading this new story feel like catching up with an old friend.

i've only read the preview of chapter 1-5 AND i'd say that im so intrigued to read it! I RLLY CANT WAIT for this book to comes out, knowing the story in Boyfriend Material, it's making me so excited to look forward to reading this book. THANKYOU netgalley for giving this free arc ebook!

The first five chapters of Husband Material have me excited and honestly a little scared to read the whole book in August. I know Alexis is going to ripped my heart out and then put it back together in the best way possible. I love the cast of characters in this story. Luc and Oliver are perfection. Their friends provide a hilarious backdrop. I really cannot wait to have the finished copy in my hands.

I am so incredibly excited to read this whole book!!! I just love the whole cast of characters and how richly they're all written. I can feel my own anxieties and insecurities mirrored on the page in different ways amongst Luc and Oliver. I love how realistic they are!! But my heart squeezes in happiness when I read this. Boyfriend Material was so beautiful in how it had me feeling nostalgic for the rom coms of the 90s and 00s. Husband Material is no different.

I loved this preview! I'm so excited for the full book!! The interactions between the characters had me screaming already. I missed them so much and the first few chapters didn't disapoint!

Yes, I can’t wait to read the whole book! My favorite couple back again! Really really looking forward to this one!

Thank you, NetGalley for the preview ARC in exchange for an honest review. The book is set to publish on August 2, 2022.

This preview of 'Husband Material' features the first five chapters of the novel. It's been two years since what has happened in 'Boyfriend Material' and coincidentally I read that book two years ago in 2020. It had become a favorite of mine, balancing drama and humor in a way I love to see it, and it seems like this book is going to be the same! Yay! Although it's been a hot minute since I read that book, within the beginning of 'Husband Material' I was flooded with memory and recollection of the book's content and what I loved about it.

As a sequel, it does a great job reminding the reader of the characters and their antics very naturally in the beginning chapters if one hasn't read the first book recently. I love Luc and Oliver's relationship, I love Alex so much and I hope we see Miffy again soon! The humor in context and dialogue is laugh-out-loud funny, and I'm so glad to continue on with Luc's mad life and where this will take us. I need more, more, more of everything this series can give! I'm so excited for this when it comes out!

This is an honest review of a 5-chapter preview given to me through NetGalley.

In Boyfriend Material, Luc and Oliver went from fake dating to real falling in love, and after two years of dating, they are still going strong in Husband Material. They’re on top of the world, but for every up there’s a down.

(03/13/2022): I love how, while the characters of Luc and Oliver are still the same boys we know and love, their development and maturation as individuals and as a couple is clearly shown. The humor is still just as on point as it was in the first book, and despite being only five chapters, this book is already so engaging (I live for drama). I’m very excited to get my hands on a full-length copy of this book when it comes out, and I will update this partial review when that happens!

I just read a preview of the first four chapters of Husband Material and loved every word. It took me right back to the world of Luc and Oliver as if time never passed. How am I going to wait for the August release?! Preordered.

So disappointed..... that this was just a sample and not the entire book! Can't wait to see what comes next for Luc and Oliver!

I need more!! I loved Boyfriend Material and now the first five chapters of Husband Material are so good I can’t wait for the rest!!!

WOWOWOWOW!!
I C ANT WAIITTTTTTT IM DYING HERE!
The minute I finished book one i KNEW I needed a second book!!!!

I really enjoyed this preview of Husband Material. It’s definitely leaving me wanting to get my hands on the rest of their story. The author perfectly mixes high emotions with comedic timing.

Incredibly excited to read the rest of this- the first book is one of my all-time favorites and I can't wait to be swept up in Lucien and Oliver again.

I loved Boyfriend Material by Alexis Hall so when I saw this I had to download it immediately! The release date for this book has already been marked in my calender and I'm really excited. The writing so far is great and just like I expected it to be. I fell into the story instantly and I was really disappointed when the 5 chapters were over.
I can't wait to read the whole book and dive back into Oliver and Luciens Love Story! :)

Only the first five chapters so far but I'm really interested to see how this book is going to unfold. In Boyfriend Material we saw Oliver and Luc really learn about each other through one of my favourite trends (the fake dating trope) and now we get to see them two years later pretty well knowing each other. We see Luc knowing details about what his boyfriend does and doesn't want to hear in jokes and it was fun.

The little snippet was enough to make me wonder if we are going to see more of their friends and if the balance between being there for your friends and being there for your partner gets harder once you look into a further commitment. I will be buying the full book once it's released.

So excited for this! A perfect sneak peek into a sequel I’m so invested in! Can’t wait to read the whole thing.

This refers to the whole book as I was able to read an entire ARC - OH MY GOD THIS BOOK IS AMAZING. I laughed out loud waking my husband more than once in the middle of the night because I couldn't put it down. But for all the laughs there's an equal amount of realistic feelings of doubt and uncertainty that comes along with any committed relationship. I just love Luc & Oliver and Alexis Hall hits a home-run with their story. I wish it was coming out sooner than August because I want my library patrons to get their hands on this book!

Thank you for the ARC NetGalley!

This review is for the first five chapters only.

I’m wary of sequels, especially when it follows a book I absolutely loved. There’s the matter of your beloved characters staying true to themselves and the author writing in the same style. Also, will the plot be just as engaging as the first? Will it give me those butterfly feelings again? The bar is “too damn high” meme.

So far, Husband Material seems promising.
Luc, Oliver, and company are still the same yet there’s definitely growth so it doesn’t feel stagnant. I don’t want to write too much since I haven’t read enough but I will say, each time another chapter break came, I was disappointed because I was that much closer to getting to the end of the sample. I can’t wait for release in August and will definitely update more then.
