I loved Boyfriend Material, and Luc’s way of telling his story. I was super excited to jump into this one, and I enjoyed it for the most part. Luc and Oliver were just a messy and complicated as ever. I loved watching them navigate their issues as a couple. I enjoyed their banter. It was perfectly timed as ever. I appreciated both of their willingness to listen to each other, apologize when they’d messed up, and forgive each other. Luc supporting Oliver through the tough times he encountered in this one was beautifully written. Oliver being steadfast and unwavering in how he felt for Luc was endearing. The plot was paced perfectly and sucked me in from the beginning. The ending unfortunately felt very abrupt and underwhelming. I can see how it fit their characters and identities, but it wasn’t what I was expecting I suppose.
