A slow burn, hilarious and heartwarming romantic comedy from the New York Times bestselling author of Yours Truly.

"A romance for the ages" —Tessa Bailey, bestselling author of It Happened One Summer

Kristen Peterson doesn't do drama, will fight to the death for her friends, and has no room in her life for guys who just don't get her. She's also keeping a big secret: facing a medically necessary procedure that will make it impossible for her to have children.

Planning her best friend's wedding is bittersweet for Kristen—especially when she meets the best man, Josh Copeland. He's funny, sexy, never offended by her mile-wide streak of sarcasm, and always one chicken enchilada ahead of her hangry. Even her dog, Stuntman Mike, adores him. The only catch: Josh wants a big family someday. Kristen knows he'd be better off with someone else, but as their attraction grows, it's harder and harder to keep him at arm's length.

The Friend Zone will have you laughing one moment and grabbing for tissues the next as it tackles the realities of infertility and loss with wit, heart, and a lot of sass.

"Your next favorite romantic comedy ...The Friend Zone is that rare beach read with tons of heart that will make you laugh and cry in equal parts." —PopSugar

Opinie krytyków

"Jimenez's dazzling debut is a brilliantly written romantic comedy that seamlessly toggles back and forth between scenes of laugh-out-loud, snarky wit and serious emotional issues without missing a beat, all the while delivering maximum reading satisfaction."—Booklist, Starred Review
"Harnessing sass, heartfelt struggle, and unapologetic sexuality, Jimenez's debut is as hysterical as it is tear-jerking...Jimenez manages to fulfill all expectations for a romantic comedy while refusing to sacrifice nuance. Biting wit and laugh-out-loud moments take priority, but the novel remains subtle in its sentimentality and sneaks up on the reader with unanticipated depth. Readers who have wrestled with infertility will find Kristen's anxieties and sorrows deeply relatable."—Publishers Weekly, Starred Review
"Jimenez tackles a myriad of issues in her debut and hits each one with depth and sensitivity. Kristen's take-no-prisoners attitude is smart and sassy and perfectly balanced by Josh's easygoing resourcefulness...An excellent debut that combines wit, humor, and emotional intensity."—Kirkus
"This romcom novel will have you feeling the falling-in-love autumn vibes."—Buzzfeed
"The Friend Zone is a deliciously hot, sweet debut full of banter I couldn't get enough of. I loved all the characters, from Kristen and Josh, to the supporting cast, and even Stuntman Mike. This book is an absolute treat."—L.J. Shen, USA Today bestselling author
"The Friend Zone gave me belly laughs, shook me up, and made me feel hopeful about love and the human strength of spirit. A romance for the ages!"—Tessa Bailey, New York Times bestselling author of Fix Her Up

"You can expect to laugh and cry during this one."—Good Housekeeping
"The Friend Zone is heartbreaking, gut-wrenching, and emotional. Abby Jimenez wrote a difficult story line with sensitivity, heat, humor, banter, and unwavering friendship."—Harlequin Junkie, Top Pick

I really enjoyed this audio book and got through it quickly. The only thing that annoyed me a bit was Kristen complaining and being in her head so much in the second half of the book. I understand her and actually see myself in her, but it was getting too much to listen to her whining so much in the audio. There were also quite a few stereotypes presented that I'm not a fan of, but they weren't what the story focused on (like Josh saying "She's mine" as if Kristen was his property). Other than that I loved following along the journey of the characters, particularly enjoyed the parts Josh was narrating, the voice fit him so well and made it feel like a friend was telling me his story.

emotional story about love, self worth and grief

Ich mochte die Hauptfiguren und hab mitgefiebert auch wenn ich die Geschichte nicht überraschend fand. Bei dieser Art von Büchern ist das aber genau was ich will, die richtige Mischung aus vorhersehbarem Drama. Die Hauptfiguren sind mir an manchen Stellen etwas zu übergriffig, was basierend auf dem Misverständnis ok ist, weil wir als Leser mehr Wissen. Die feine Linie zwischen romantisch und creepy ist aber ein Thema des Genres.

Sprecher beide ausgezeichnet, Geschichte gut

Basierend auf dem Titel hatte ich mit einer Standardgeschichte zur friendzone gerechnet. Bekommen habe ich aber eine sehr unerwartete Story mit vielen schönen und traurigen Momenten.
Achtung: die drei Bücher der Autorin gehören zusammen, ich habe mit dem falschen begonnen und mich dadurch gespoilert. Dieses ist das erste der Reihe :)

Tolle Geschichte, Titel passt nicht so ganz

Mal nicht die typische romantische Frauenrolle. Stimme der Sprecherin etwas komisch. aber ansonsten schön zum anhören

gute Geschichte

Gooood lord. How to review this absolute trainwreck?!? The story is cute, the infertility issue is an interesting detail, the banter is fine and i grinned a lot - and then shit hit the fan and the whole story took a turn that has no friggin place in a book like this. This is teased as a slightly deep romcom - and then...
Boy oh boy...
And then brandon gets into an accident and a bit into his promising recovery - braindead. Funeral. No wedding for sloan and brandon. WHAT?!?
And our heroine keeps deciding whats best for josh despite him pleading begging and trying to make his case countless times and it's so tiresome and unbearable (not in a way that got me holding my breath - but rather in screaming at her because she is acting like a lunatic.)
I didnt finish - checked the reviews again and found out after going batshit crazy over the infertility - gets pregnant. Gotta be kidding me...

So much nope. 3/4 were fine and funny and well done. What a complete waste of a perfectly good story and i loved stuntman mike to bits.

Waaaaay overboard!!!! Heavy spoilers!!!
