Will Abby Jimenez ever write a book that doesn’t make me cry like a baby? All signs point to no!

Side note: you do not have to read the friend zone in order to enjoy this, it reads fine as a stand alone. HOWEVER the love and appreciation for Sloane is amplified x100000 if you do.
Side note 2: it really, really bothers me that they chose to name him “Jackson Waters” when there’s already a band by that name, it did mess me up at the beginning but I cannot detract a star for it.

If you're a fan of romance, you'll love this! Jimenez does a great job capturing the feeling of falling in love, especially when it catches you by surprise. I appreciated the timeliness she chose for Sloan and Jason's relationship, it was fun seeing so them in so many different settings and stages. I balled my eyes out during many points. I'm still thinking about this book, and I probably will be for awhile!

Another poignant story! This one balances the light the and heavy that comes with life. A hopeful story that unfolds about our FMC finding love after loss.

In this book we get to see Sloan's character be fleshed out as well as meet Jason. Kristen continues to be a central character and I was happy to see her and peak into her life after her "happily ever after". Josh unfortunately sort of faded to a side character, I was hoping to get to know him better from the outside since their book really focused on Kristen.

I enjoyed Sloan and Jason's character development and complicated and nuanced reactions to real relationship barriers (not everyone is a rockstar but jobs have been known to transfer people or require travel).

This book got emotional reactions out of me such as- smiling, laughing, and crying.

This was cute! I think I need to read more romances based around music artists because the last few I've read I've really enjoyed.

This was reading like a 5 star from the beginning, there was a small part in the middle that went differently than I expected but it all turned out the way it needed to. The ending was super cute and cheesy which might bother some but I loved it. This was so much better than the first book The Friend Zone, but I did enjoy Josh and Kiersten in this as well.

I have mixed feelings about this. I think it was overall very good, the characters are fun and have good chemistry. Some of their actions/thought processes weren’t very believable. Also the whole playlist thing had nothing to do with the book. I thought that was dumb. Also I wish that not every loose end was tied up so nicely.

Also they seemed very co-dependant and there were thin attempts to make the relationship seem healthier.

Mostly issues with pacing. There were a handful of points where I thought the plot was wrapped up and the book could've ended, but there was still a decent chuck of book left.

The story strays from the blurb early into the story, but the digressing plot wasn't necessarily bad at all. There was just a dissonance from the premise of the book and the bulk of the content.
