This is a awesome sweet romance that both, young and old will enjoy.
I love Molly Lee’s writing style, her characters and world settings are just very enjoyable.
I like that we get a semi slow build up and that the pair is friends first and foremost. Of course both at one point realize there might be more but are not willing to risk it.
I enjoyed both Fynn and Braylen, both are smart, funny and a bit crazy. Love their friendship.
Some parts seemed a bit slow but it really didn’t bother me much in this book. It just seemed to fit somehow.
Overall, really enjoyed this book and recommend this clean fun and flirty read.
I rate it 4 ½ ★

The author wrote us a brilliantly funny and cute read, that actually spans over a rather short time, but fits perfectly in how life seems to go when you are young. That moment is absolutely everything. The author definitely captured this sentiment and really ran with it. She then gave us that beautiful lesson that can only be learned by living through all these moments.
Overall, I think this is easily one of those books that all ages can enjoy and YA readers will definitely connect with, and find really fun. I think the author’s writing style is perfect for the age group the booked is aimed at, and really brings out the emotions of life.
**I received an arc a chose to provide my honest review.

I don’t know why this is my first time reading a book by this author. I see her books on my timeline ALL the time. Now I know why.
This was a good, fun YA story with realistic high school characters. Flynn was oblivious and Braylen was frustrating, but it felt right for their age group and maturity level. I was a BIG fan of Randy, how lucky for Braylen to have stumbled, literally, into him early on. Katy was the typical “popular” character you expect to find in YA stories, even when she was being nice, she was shady.
I liked this story for exactly what it was. A light-hearted, fun friends to lovers story and I will absolutely be reading more from Molly E. Lee.

While I liked the main characters here, there was so much going on among the secondary characters it's hard to focus the main ones. Plus as interesting as this party clearly was I kind of want to see more than just one night with the characters.
It's a good story, a cute story, but I just kind of wanted more.

This was the first book of Molly E. Lee's that I have ever read. I have heard great things about her books but just haven't had the chance to read them yet. With that being said, I felt like Love in the Friend Zone wasn't the greatest book to read first of her work.
Love in the Friend Zone follows our main characters, Braylen and Fynn, throughout one night. I feel like we were kind of thrown into their "relationship" so fast that we really didn't get a lot of back information on the characters and their current situation.
I wish there was more to the story and that we saw a little more development of each character before it came to an end. I thought the story line was cute, just needed a little more!

I think that the portrayal of teenagers in this book was done very well also. I am in my early thirties now but still remember what it was like to be a teen and in high school and this book was very realistic in showing that age in the characters.
I was hooked to this book from the start and am really interested to see what is going to happen next. The main characters were enjoyable and I also liked the secondary ones as well.
