Boyfriend Material was absolutely fantastic, and this preview promises that Husband Material will be equally so. The characters are constant and fantastic. The plot set-up is already incredibly compelling, even in the first five chapters. I am so excited to read the rest of this book, and cannot wait for it to release.
This was only the first five chapters and reading it might have been a mistake because NOW I CAN"T STOP THINKING ABOUT HOW EXCITED I AM FOR THE WHOLE BOOK. The first few chapters absolutely lived up to the first book, with its funny tone, interested characters, and awkward moments. I can not wait for the rest.
I have loved reading Boyfriend Material. It was funny and cute and sometimes sad and just overall perfectly well written.
The first five chapters of Husband Material turned out to be just as good. The story continues two years after Boyfriend Material. Oliver is still just perfect, Luc is still funny and insecure.
While the story is evolving more into weddings and other grown up stuff, the humor stays the same. I especially adored the interaction between Luc and Alex. Every time it's just hilarious!
I knew that I shouldn't torture myself by reading the first five chapters, but I couldn't resist, and I was right - it did leave me wanting more. The first book in the series, "Boyfriend Material" had me laughing out loud and became one of my favorite comfort reads, and one of my favorite books to recommend to others, so I was so excited to get a peek into Luc and Oliver's world two years on and see how they are doing. But, wow did the finish of chapter five leave me with so many questions. I'm going to try not to think too hard about how far away August is!
Boyfriend Material was very much a spur of the moment read, which I entered with some trepidation - contemporary romance rarely works for me - but I was blown away with how much I enjoyed it.
This was more of the same, filled with humour and ridiculousness. All of the characters come through perfectly, feeling very much like a slice of real life. The writing is sharp, and the plot seems to be coming together in a way that I expect will hurt me before it gets better.
Very much looking forward to reading the full book!
The first Book in the series is absolutely one of my favorite reads of last year and maybe ever so I was really excited to get the first couple chapters of book 2. This book is definitely seeming to be full of lots of humor and hijinks and it is really cool to see the development of the relationship between the two main characters in the couple of years since book one occurred. I think that this story is going to be very popular with readers who liked the first book.
This series is so unbelievably sweet and I'm so thankful to get the chance to read a preview of the first five chapters. I adored Boyfriend Material, and it's refreshing to know that Oliver & Luc are much the same characters in Husband Material (something that doesn't always happen across multiple volumes of romance series). I can't wait for the full release!!! Thank you to the publisher & author for the opportunity to read these first few chapters!
OMG I was sooo happy to being offered the opportunity to have a glance into the first five chapters of the sequel to Boyfriend Material !
Luc and Oliver were so cute and still are. Now they're just witnessing their friends and ex getting married (not together ;) ) and the question is : will they too ???
I just can't wait to read the whole book once it's out in August 2022.
Thank you to Netgalley and SOURCEBOOKS Casablanca for providing an (unfortunately too short ;) ) eARC in exchange of an honest review.
I absolutely, positively adored this sneak peek into Husband Material. I was completely smitten with it and cannot wait for the full story.
At the end I just placed my hand to my chest and sighed a sweet, contented sigh.
I adore the writing style Hall has, it is witty and full of intellectual banter. The banter in this book is not less amazing. The absolutely insane and always comical situations our characters find themselves in leads to such enjoyment of their stories. I left this preview very invested in what will happen in Oliver and Luc's story!
Thank you to NetGalley and Sourcebooks for this preview copy in exchange for my honest opinion.
So so good! I have been waiting for Husband Material for so long, and these 5 chapters just made me want to read the whole book even more!
I cannot express how much I enjoyed even the smallest snippet of this book! When I saw NetGalley allowed access to the first few chapters, I jumped at the opportunity to read more about Luc and Oliver! I was not ready to leave their world so I naturally restarted boyfriend material:) Cannot recommended enough <3
I had a chance to read this while waiting for an appointment, and this preview was perfect. It was so nice to revisit familiar characters from Boyfriend Material and see what they've been up to. I am pleased to report that personalities are the same, which led to several zany mishaps within the first 5 chapters. Luc and Oliver have a strong relationship and work well together, but there's still plenty of "opposites attract" energy. I am so excited to read Husband Material!
I loved this preview. The whole tone and voice of the charecters drops you right back into the world. I can't wait to read the rest of this book.
Oh I have missed Luc and Oliver! So excited I got a sneak peek into Husband Material. Loved it! Can't wait for the book!
Sequel to beloved Boyfriend Material. The rhythm of the previous book and characters were immediately familiar in this 5 chapter preview. Grabs the reader right away and looking forward to the full book in August.
Love love loved the first book, and the preview had me laughing out loud! I can't wait to see the (mis)adventures Luc and Oliver go on this time! If they don't end up engaged by the end, I'll go a little feral, tbh.
I really loved “Boyfriend Material” so when I found out there was going to be a sequel, I knew I would love it too. I’ve missed the characters soo much, it was amazing to be able to read aboyt then again, even if it was just a glimpse. I was certain the author wouldn’t dissapoint and I was right! I was so caught up in the reading that I forgot I only could read the first 5 chapters!!
If you loved Boyfriend Material, you're going to adore Husband Material. From the first page, I was already grinning like an idiot because of how utterly delighted I was to be back with Lucien and his ridiculous self - I mean this in the most loving way possible. Five chapters are way too few, I read them as soon as I could and I cannot wait for the entire book. Getting to see Lucien and Oliver again two years later when they're in a very different place to most of the previous book is wonderful, and I'm really excited to see where they're going to go.
I absolutely LOVED book1. The flawless voice and humour was like falling into the very best British romcom. From the opening of book2, I can tell this will be a very worthy sequel. The characters are all so well rounded and expertly crafted it feels like meeting up with a group of friends again!
