Ethan & Wyatt: Getting Him Back / Boyfriend Material / Relationship Status by K.A. Mitchell
4.0
Ethan and Wyatt's story was everything you'd expect from a New Adult book (with plenty of sex). All the hardships young people face in their lives, such as first love; college education and housing; losing your first love and trying to get him back; going wherever your dick leads you (and figuring out where your dick goes, and how) even if it might get you into real trouble; falling in love again and trying to arrange your life around that person and planning your FOREVER.
Book 1 was entirely from Ethan's POV. I liked him, he's a fun, open person, which is everything Wyatt isn't. Wyatt is quiet, he's hiding because of his past and also because he has Waardenburg syndrome, which causes hearing loss and pigmentation changes on the skin, hair and eyes.
I liked how they came together, even though it was a bit too fast for my liking, but that's young love I guess.
Ethan's ex, I'm sure the author wanted him to be the villain and lots of readers did see him as one. I didn't. I understood him... yeah, he could've handled the situation better, but you know leaving high school and your hometown behind is confusing enough even without a boyfriend to think about. Anyway. I was glad he didn't take up much space in the book.
I loved it, and wasn't sure what else was left to say in the remaining two books, but I went on. And I'm so glad I did, because book 2 was from Wyatt's POV, and I loved it more. I'm not saying that Wyatt's feelings ran deeper than Ethan's, but for some reason the author decided to lay it all out there in the narration, so the readers knew Wyatt's feelings, but of course he kept it to himself and left Ethan in the dark.
So I was gushing and swooning a lot while reading book 2. *-*
Book 3 was dual POV and all about maintaining a steady relationship. Ethan was tiptoeing around Wyatt, he thought Wyatt would bolt if he pushed too hard, too fast. They didn't want to separate for the summer so they found jobs and rented a shitty place with 2 other guys, so it wasn't a dream come true. They were playing house just for the summer. But Wyatt started to loosen up, it took him a long time, but he started to picture a future together with Ethan. I loved seeing Wyatt open up and smile.
Book 3 could've been a bit longer, there were time jumps I wanted to be filled in and I desired a more romantic ending. I also hoped we'd get to see more of Ethan's family.
I really loved the writing style and well... basically everything else. It was fun and upbeat. Reading my review it might come off as a melancholic story, I assure you it's not. :) You can read all 3 books in one go, it's like one long book.
Really enjoyed it. 4.5 stars

"His voice sounded like it had a hard time getting out of his throat. “It’s just, I can’t ever tell if you’re happy. And I want to make you happy with me. Any way I can.”
"It’s hard as hell loving someone who’s waiting—no, looking—for a reason to push you away. I don’t get why you want to be miserable when I just want you to be happy.”
