I received an ARC on NetGalley in exchange for an honest review (Thanks!) Rating: 4 stars I loved the emotional rollercoaster that was Abby Jimenez 's first book, The Friend Zone so I was ecstatic when my wish was granted to read the ARC of The Happy Ever After Playlist . This book takes place after the events of The Friend Zone so I would recommend you pick that book up before this one (you just get a better emotional connection to all the characters, okay?). Sloane is a lot less wacky than the main character of The Friend Zone , Kristen. Sloane is still grieving a year after the events of the last book when a dog suddenly jumps into her convertible when she's driving. When she meets the guy who owns the dog, she finds out he's a musician and they fall in love. This book is riddled with drama as the guy's popularity surges and Sloane still tries to deal with her grief. I think I'm officially obsessed with Abby Jimene...
