You don’t go into a book called “boyfriend material” expecting it to be deep and serious and introspective. But it does a great job of starting slow and unserious and building up to the character development. It’s fun, but I did have to take half a star away because my god the office banter was hard to read sometimes, but the rest of it is pretty solid, and incredibly British. This book knows exactly what it is and stay in it’s lane, unlike some very cliché unserious books that try so so hard to give Tumblr quotes in the middle of a dialogue. Lot’s of relatable emotions from our dear characters, an enjoyable read overall. Would re-read for funzies.
