i loved boyfriend material and i was enjoying this book a lot until the last couple pages.

the ending felt very out of left field, not to mention very rushed.  even though they were fighting and going through conflict it read to me more like character development to create and stronger relationship not actually we dont want to get married at all? it definitely couldve been alluded to more than just luc’s mom going randomly “idk maybe you shoudn’t get married at all” and then luc never thinks about it again. not even when he suddenly doesnt want to get married! his entire reason is that it “feels wrong”, what?? oliver’s reason as well feels to come out of thin air. i was left feeling confused and a bit disappointed.
