Now it seems like everyone around them is getting married, and Luc's feeling the social pressure to propose. But it'll take more than four weddings, a funeral, and a bowl full of special curry to get these two from I don't know what I'm doing to I do. Good thing Oliver is such perfect HUSBAND MATERIAL.

I enjoyed Boyfriend Material, but I absolutely loved Husband Material! I laughed out loud throughout the book and enjoyed all of characters.
Cute, and I was happy to see more of Luc and Oliver, but ultimately felt like it didn't go anywhere. I did enjoy every scene with Odile and Judy though...I'd read a whole book about them!
That was certainly a book. A lot of other reviewers cover most of the bases so I'll keep this short. It kinda feels the author came a with a title and a general idea ( They got to weddings AND a funeral like that one famous romcom. ) but then couldn't figure how to move the pieces around? The supposed central relationship just feels like arguments + sexy times with very little growth or momentum. And then the ending is one step removed from “ It was all a dream.” If you are a completionist or really enjoy the side characters of this series like Luc's mom, go ahead and read this book. If you want to read this book for Luc and Oliver, re-read boyfriend material or skim. I'm not necessarily angry with this book, just disappointed.
Less a sequel, more of the same plot as the first book rehashed. Luc was sooooo annoying in this, and not in a good way.
