Boyfriend Material really could have used an extra chapter of fluff at the end for a more satisfying ending.

[fullmetalneverland]

"So often, I think, when a person dies—when a complicated person dies, even when an unambiguously awful person dies, not that I believe there are any truly unambiguously awful people—it’s for those of us left behind to pick over ourselves and ask, ‘Am I this way in spite of this person or because of them?’ And so often the answer is simply yes."

-Alexis Hall, Husband Material

i fucking SCREAMED when i saw this in my inbox ad sf fgizd hidgfjks fjksdjk my grandparents were like WHAT THE FUCK

[firebrand-witch]

I just realized something!! I'm reading this (amazing, brilliant) book called boyfriend material and I stopped at the point where oliver and luc break up. And then I wake up and check tumblr in the morning and taylor and joe broke up??

[lily-s-world]

I had never analyze it that way, but it is so true.

Red, White & Royal Blue made me fall in love with Alex and Henry falling in love despite hating each other.

Boyfriend Material made me fall in love with Luc and Oliver falling in love with each other despite hating themselves.

Queer romance recs for the summer

Summer is here and I know many like to read more lighthearted books during that time, so here are some queer romances I've really enjoyed and that I think are perfect for the summer.

Anything by F.T. Lukens. Most specifically, those I've read are So This Is Ever After, In Deeper Waters, and Otherworldly. If you're looking for cute queer romantasy novels to read this summer, look no further. F.T. Lukens' books are fun and lighthearted even when they deal with heavier topics, and they contain mlm, mlnb, and nb rep.

Running Close to the Wind by Alex Rowland. I've talked about this book before and I'll probably talk about it many more times because I adored it. It's hilarious and refreshing even though it handles some heavy topics, so if you like pirates, accidental treason, and dirty jokes, this book is perfect for you. In terms of representation, it has polyamory rep, various sexualities, and intersex (if I remember correctly) and non-binary rep.

Gwen and Art Are Not In Love by Lex Croucher. This book is an adorable, fun romance set in a historical setting inspired by Arthurian times. It's perfect if you're looking for not one but two forbidden romances, banter and adventure, humour, and wlw and mlm rep.

Delilah Green Doesn't Care by Ashley Herring Blake. I remember I absolutely loved this book when I read it during the summer a couple of years ago, and my feelings after two years are still the same. This book is an adult romance novel (with one or two sex scenes) with vivid and complex characters, amazing sapphic rep, and a fantastic romance. Even better, it's a completed trilogy, and though I've yet to read the two other books, I'm sure they're great too.

Carry On by Rainbow Rowell. You've probably already heard of this one, and it is a book I've really enjoyed. Carry On is fun and captivating, and reads easily.

She Gets the Girl by Rachael Lippincott and Alyson Derrick. A cute love story inspired directly from the real-life romance between the authors (who are married, if I'm not mistaken), and a great way to cheer yourself up.

Café con Lychee by Emery Lee. I read this book a couple years ago already, but it was super cute and it read so easily that I finished it in a day. If you're looking for a light-heared, coming-of-age mlm romance, then this is the book for you.

Boyfriend Material by Alexis Hall. Last but not least, one of my favourite books from last year. Boyfriend Material is a hilarious mlm romance that somehow manages to be a light read even though it deals with some dark topics. The characters are amazing, their relationship and how it develops even more so, and this book was an immediate favourite for me. Some people have disliked the sequel, Husband Material, but I loved it just as much, and the third and final book is due to come out some time next year.

Queer romances and having that one line that just absolutely shreds your heart

Patrochilles and “He is the other half of my soul, as the poets say”

Wilmon and “All the people are fake, they're made of metal. but i like you and that is not fake”

First Prince and “History, huh ? Bet we could make some”

OliverLuc and “I am conscious this could be rather burdensome to hear, but you remain the thing I have most chosen for myself. “

Narlie and “ sometimes people need more support than just one person can give. That's love, darling”

[rosemarytales]

tbh I think the venn diagram of merthur shippers and "boyfriend material" by alexis hall fans should be a circle, it's merthur fanfic in spirit

“Everybody tells you that when you’re young, you think you’ll live forever. What they don’t tell you is that when you’re old, you think the same. It’s just everything starts reminding you that it’s not true.”

-Alexis Hall, Boyfriend Material

Re-reading Boyfriend Material after a long time. I had forgotten how fucking cute this book is. I adore every character anew. Re-reading Luc and Oliver's disastrous first date with my chin in my hands. They're so adorably awkward. Oliver is the autistic representation we deserve and Luc is the perfect ADHD depression kid. Together they're unstoppable.

“Your…your job?” I asked with all the smoothness of a bowl of granola.

“Ah. Yes. Well, I”—this time, his foot only stroked the side of mine as it jiggled under the table—“specialise in criminal defence. And you might as well get it over with.”

“Get what over with?”

“The question that everyone asks when you tell them you work in criminal defence.”

This felt uncomfortably like failing an exam. In a blind panic, I blurted out the first thing that came into my head. “Do you have sex in the wig?”

Peerless.
