I listened to Husband Material months ago but avoided writing a review because I have conflicted opinions. I adored every aspect of Boyfriend Material, so I was hoping for more of the same in book 2. Unfortunately, that was not my experience.

Boyfriend Material was the fun and exciting will-they-or-won't-they beginning to Luc and Oliver's romance, a perfect rom com. Husband Material is the second stage of their relationship where everything gets more complicated. Its plot includes the witty banter I love but also doubts, conversations about serious topics, and disagreements. At times, this felt like it was veering into a Four Weddings and a Funeral retelling.

I was shocked by the ending, although it's realistic for the characters. I've heard there will be a third book (Father Material) but I'm not sure I'll read it. I really wish I I had left Luc and Oliver at the end of book 1 and imagined their bright and happy future together.

Thank you to NetGalley and Dreamscape Media for the review copy of this audiobook.
