Boyfriend Material by Alexis Hall

4.0

This book was outrageously fun. It was witty and charming and it didn’t take itself too seriously. While I appreciated the emotional turmoil that both Luc and Oliver had to work through in order to appreciate how much they needed each other, the story, on the whole, was such a riot. The dung beetle jokes and the hilarious cast of side characters really made this a solid first read of 2021 for me. I don’t know that this book warrants comparison to RWRB because they’re different in many ways, but it is enjoyable and stands on its own as a worthy contemporary m/m romance. I’d recommend to anyone who loves a good romantic comedy and, frankly, who loves to read gay shit (I definitely do).
