I'm really growing to love Abby Jimenez. Sloan and Jason are both lovable characters, doing their best to love one another through extraordinary circumstances. Sloan's grief feels natural and not forced, especially considering that this book takes place two years after her fiance's death. While Jason's facing the dramatic consequences of fame, he himself is down-to-earth and loveable and it makes their relationship relatable despite the circumstances. And Tucker! Tucker, of course, can do no wrong. Plus, I'm a sucker for a book that comes with its own playlist. I personally recommend skipping "The Friend Zone" itself and starting with this one right here.

The first half was a 4.5, then the second half became a little too cliche for me. Add in some unexplored emotional resolutions and this ends up around a 3-3.5. Not bad, but not as good as this author's potential. I'll read her next book.

I loved the format of this book. It made me want listen to music more often while I read, and in my opinion the playlist associated with the book was awesome. I discovered some new artists and enjoyed listening to some favorite artists. It was also a cute love story with good pacing and fresh plot points. My main issue was the heteronormativity and the toxic gender roles that were perpetually present throughout reading. It was a big distraction for my while reading and took away from my enjoyment of the story. It was woven into the dialogue, the relationship tensions, and pretty much every aspect of the plot.
