Boyfriend Material is a quick and easy read. It's a heartfelt-fake-dating romance, that feels shockingly real, despite the main character's parents being rockstars. Would recommend for someone looking for a fluffy read.

this is the first book i finished in one sitting how insane, this is getting the lower rating (it absolutely would be 4.5 stars) if the stronger subjects were handled with more care, it was good, but very frustrating at times ESPECIALLY at the end, but for the time it was written  i would have loved to see more care given to the theme of mental health

I enjoyed this book after about the 30% mark, before then Luc was annoying and pretty hard not to scream at in your head. But by the end, I loved him and Oliver even if I occasionally wanted to slap them upside your heads. I would have liked more spice! But I know if you wish to have a mainstream M/M romance you can't usually get too graphic with that. In the end, I enjoyed it and laughed a lot, as well as cried a bit too.
