Boyfriend Material by Alexis Hall
2.0
fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Complicated
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

What a mess of a book. Painfully British, which isn’t points off it just needs to be noted.  Every moment of a small high, you could expect within one page the biggest low. The stakes, deeply confusing and I could not believe. The characters, oddly real but also violent caricatures. What we fix everything in the last 7 pages of the book? We’re doing it on the buzzer?  There was a portion of the book in the middle, that actually was really awesome and the character building/relationship building was great but then we went back to whatever the fuck was going on
