Alex Hall has done it again. Husband Material sneak peek is only the beginning of a wildly humorous and tender story of what it’s like to be in love. I need to read the rest of the book!
Friends!!!! Initial thoughts after reading the last chapter available:
I. NEED. MORE.😭😭😭
Hall quickly grabs readers attention by throwing his characters into tricky situations where we need to know what happens next. To see if each of these characters (both side and main characters alike) will find happiness. And with everything that goes on in only the first few chapters in this sneak peek, dear readers, I am desperate for more.
There are way to many questions I have and the loudest one is: will Luc and Oliver get their happily ever after???
I think I might, scratch that, will cry if Luc and Oliver don’t get a happily ever after.
Happy Reading ~ Cece

So good so far! It's got the same flare of the first one, and I'm definitely excited to read the rest of it when it comes out! :)

I read the first book a pretty long time ago and, beside loved it, I didn’t remember all about it. It was long ago!! But, gosh, this preview did I remember the reason why I loved it!
Now, I’m completely freaking about all that time until the oficial release!!
My Godness, how they decided stop that part is killing me!! I need to know!!!!! Well, I’m already expecting a broken heart for this book, when Luc said “but I had to make a choice and I’m choosing to be a good friend instead a good boyfriend”… I think all my neighbors hear my heart go to pieces!!! I cant wait to this whole thing!!!

Thank you to NetGalley and publisher for the preview ARC.
I could not read the 5 chapter preview for Husband Material fast enough, and at the same time I struggled trying to make it last knowing it will be 6 months until the full book is released. I can't recommend this higher. Boyfriend Material is one of my most enjoyed books and Husband Material is set up to follow suit. The delightful combination of humor and heartfelt is already back in full swing. Luc has such a delightful inner dialogue and Oliver such wry, charming banter and sweet dialogue that it's difficult not to smile and laugh out loud while reading.
Absolutely worth checking out. I can’t wait to get my hands on the full novel when it comes out and you should too!

I was already super excited to read this one and now I am EVEN MORE EXCITED! I absolutely ADORED the first one and this is already giving me all the feels as it starts out. I feel this is totally going to do the first book justice and am counting the days until I can read more of this one. It's going to be a perfect summer read. I absolutely love the friendships in here as well (James Royce-Royce is a favorite!) Luc and Oliver are such opposites but are so very perfect together! I look forward to seeing what the rest of the book has in store for them!

This is a very cute read. I was sucked in by the witty banter most of the time.
However, some of the time, the banter was too much and took away from the character development I think.

Damn this preview got me so much more excited to read the actual book. No wonder it'll be filled with so many swoony and laugh out loud moments.
Thank you netgalley and publisher for the preview arc

Funny, hilarious and an amazing start to the sequel with our dear Luc and Oliver. Did I love what I read and how much their relationship has deepened over? No, in fact I absolutely became complete high and now crying for the novel to be released so I can read rest of the book. Keep your eyes open people, you will be wanting to reqs this so bad.

This is wonderful! It got me even more excited for this book to come out!
My favorite part of the previous book was the humour, and I was scared it wouldn't be as good in the sequel but thankfully, I was wrong, from the very first page the wit and humour are there and they're as good as in the first book!

And here I thought the book didn't need a sequel. I was content to leave the story as it was and felt no need for another installment. I've only read the first five chapters but already I can see how this might be a favorite of mine this 2022! So excited to read the rest of the book. I am so so desperate indulge myself in Luc and Oliver's story once again.

loved this im so excited for the full arc of the book!! i loved boyfriend material, and I'm extremely excited to see how their lives continue on in this book as well as the obvious hinting to the fact that they're getting married.

This was only five chapter but I love it, I was so excited when I find out boyfriend material gonna have sequel. The sequel feel like coming back home after long time. Oh god I missed luc and oliver. They are my favorite couple

I enjoyed boyfriend material alot so i had no doubt i would probably enjoy husband material. I keep thinking of all of the different outcomes this book could turn out based on these five chapters. I can not wait until the book is released!

Now, this is just the first five chapters, but I feel like I need the whole thing! I appreciate the subtle indications of growth, and I'm excited to see how the rest of this shakes out!

I really enjoyed reading this preview of Husband Material! It’s predecessor, Boyfriend Material, is one of my favorite books so I was glad to see a lot of features in this one that are familiar. The humor is spot on and the cast of familiar characters is back. I love that Luc is such a beautifully flawed character and that he’s beginning to be able to face his vulnerability. I’m hoping to continue to see him grow as a person in the rest of this book.
I’m excited (and nervous) to see how the plot continues to develop- as it seems there might be a little trouble in “paradise”…

I love Luc and Oliver so much. They were my comfort characters during the start of the pandemic. I’m so excited for the final copy of Husband Material! I have managed to convince many followers to read Boyfriend Material back in 2020, and it’s one of my greatest achievements. Hopefully Imll do the same for this one!

What a lovely preview! I loved Boyfriend Material so I was thrilled when I heard this was getting a sequel. I'm counting down the days!
These first 5 chapters are just enough to hold me over, I hope. The writing is excellent as usual, the characters are strong. Already, I'm hooked.
I can't wait to read the rest!

Reviewing a five-chapter preview of Husband Material from NetGalley (thank you!)
Note: This review may not be reproduced or quoted in whole or in part without explicit consent from the author (also thank you).
First, a caveat: I love all things Alexis Hall, particularly because his writing inspires in me a sense of awe. I've read all of his more recent titles as well as his deeper back catalogue and love them for their brilliant wordplay, character development, humor, and complex-yet-accessible storytelling. His characters express a level of humanity not all authors capture.
I've read and reread the precursor to Husband Material, Boyfriend Material, so I was pleased to be reacquainted with all the characters I'd come to love within the first pages of HM. That said, I wasn't particularly excited to be introduced to a fringe character from the main character's past within said first few pages. I guess drama must be generated somewhere, including past loves who were and still are, quite obviously, douche-canoes.
I look forward to reading the rest of Husband Material because I haven't met an Alexis Hall book I didn't love. Even when I don't swoon over the story, I swoon over his writing.

How cute is the banter between Luc and Oliver! The five chapters definitely felt short for their adorable banter. I can feel there is a storm waiting to brew up between them and I feel anxious for them already. There seem to be cracks in the relationship and Luc seems to be self sabotaging. I can't wait to read more!!

I read Boyfriend Material in a day and was so excited to be able to read this five-chapter preview of its sequel!
It's two years after the events of Boyfriend Material. Bridget and Tom are getting married (Luc is Bridget's maid of honor), Luc still works for CRAPP, and Luc and Oliver are as strong as ever. This sequel truly felt like a continuation of the first book. The characters have grown and developed, as you expect real people would after two years, but the wittiness and charm are still there. We haven't seen any group texting yet, but there's been plenty of Luc-and-Oliver texting, including more Dick pics!
I am very excited for this book to come out because so far it has been exactly what made me fall in love with its predecessor! Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the preview!
