About this audiobook

To clean up his image, Luc O'Donnell needs the perfect boyfriend, but soon enough, his fake relationship with Oliver Blackwood starts feeling like something more.

Editor's Note

Entirely engrossing…

The slightly famous son of a rock star needs to repair his reputation in order to keep his job. He decides to get a fake boyfriend, one who will make him look nearly respectable. Misunderstandings, miscommunications, a panoply of annoying but helpful friends, and a slow-burn romance makes this book entirely engrossing.

    Funny, cute and concerningly accurate to how anxiety causes one's brain to act. Luc and Oliver are adorable and I found the whole thing really pleasant. The fake dating trope down well.

    2.5 Stars.
    I didn't dislike the book as a whole. It had some funny moments. The plot idea was nice but I just didn't connect with the characters all that much. I get that both Luc and Oliver were flawed but I just didn't like them. And I didn't get attached to any of the side characters either, mostly because they lacked substance. I mean some were a bit "quirky" but even that bothered me, because I got the feeling the real people they could have 'imitated' were being made fun of.
    I guess I might have liked the book more if it didn't drag on for over 400 pages. It was way to long for to little that actually happened.

    It did drag on for a bit in a ping pong kinda way but it's well written, witty, insightfully and oh so funny. Worth it.

    This book is sweet and funny and touching. It looked like a light read and ended up being surprisingly thought provoking. The narration is excellent!

    Un libro increíblemente divertido, y a la vez crudo con muchos sentimientos. Me fascinó lo real que se sintió. El narrador hace un excelente trabajo, adaptando las voces distintas de los personajes, y me encantó que buscaran a alguien británico.

    I mostly want to say, wonderful. Witty, sensitive, exciting and touching. In the moments when I had to stop listening I waited to go back and listen. And the narrator does a wonderful job. The women are a little weak with him, but the men are great. warmly recommended. I'll be back again.

    2/5
    Boring teenage drama with ever-brooding characters. I finished it only because I was on a plane with nothing better to do.
    Oliver's voice and intonation were extremely unlikable. It reminded me of Bus Rodent (aka guy with crooked teeth) from Fleebag.

    Absolutely love the characters. The story, the progression, the angst. One of those up there with the best. Love the narration too.

    This was so cute. Funny and charming and full of sage life advice in comic, quotable sound bites. I loved Joe Jameson's voices and accents, a really animated performance!

    Witty and realistic are the two words I'd use to describe this book.
    There might be a few minor imperfections, but this is definitely among the best books I've read so far.

    Reminded me so much of Red White and Royal blue. However, Boyfriend Material is charming in its own way.

    A delightful read with a handful of funny bits. I enjoyed when the protagonist spoke directly to the reader for comedic relief.

    As an audiobook, I loved it. The voicing was perfect. Sincerely wished this voice actor had done RWRB — that audiobook is a travesty, an absolute crime.
