Husband Material

Thanks to NetGalley and Sourcebooks Casablanca for the E-Arc in exchange for a fair review

Husband Material picks up two years after the first novel in the series. Returning to the lovable duo Luc and Oliver as they explore their relationship through vignettes that feature a different friend's wedding and eventually their own.

Overall this novel is a great continuation to one of my favorite books from last year. The reason this gets knocked down to 3 stars is the back half of the novel turned me off a bit. There were far too many streams of consciousness circular rants from Luc, which fits his character but are really not fun to read after the first. I had to skip ahead through a couple of them as they really not fun to get through. My other complaint is the lack of character growth, it feels like when a character would take a step forward they would then take a huge step back a few pages later. 

The ending was a major letdown as well. it just seemed off. It felt very rushed and there wasn't really any closure to it. It had a TV show getting canceled at the last-second vibes. I was just a bit disappointed with it. 

If you enjoyed the first entry I think you would like this as well, but the vibe is completely different than the first entry to the series to go in with that in mind.
