Critics Review

I fell for Jamie’s whip-smart writing with her debut, One On One, and Fun At Parties is just as wonderful. I will never tire of a roadtrip romance, especially over the summertime, and throw in a ton of tension and some fraught history? Sold * People *
Equal parts funny and emotional, Jamie Harrow’s writing is so warm and witty that her characters sneak their way into your heart and stay there long after the last page. I adored Quinn and Nate’s epic journey and can’t wait for readers to fall in love with them just as much as I did. A new favorite! * Catherine Walsh, author of Holiday Romance *
I loved everything about Fun at Parties: the chaotic road trip, the portrayal of complex friendship dynamics in your 20s, the unbearable YEARNING of the friends-to-lovers romance that was so expertly drawn. But it’s Quinn, whose self-discovery was beautifully unspooled as she and Nate crossed the country, who has my entire heart. Jamie Harrow has solidified herself as one of my favorite authors * Jessica Joyce, author of The Ex Vows *
Like its sparkling heroine, Fun at Parties is an absolute joy on the surface, but with plenty of hidden depths. Filled with genuine wit and warmth, Jamie Harrow’s novel is a romantic road trip you won’t want to miss * Laura Hankin, author of One-Star Romance *
Jamie Harrow has quickly become an author I turn to when I want a romantic comedy with that perfect alchemy of wit, warmth, and electric chemistry. Fun at Parties is the friends to lovers book of my dreams with Quinn and Nate, a couple whose yearning is simply unmatched. Her sophomore novel is an utter delight from beginning to end. Jamie Harrow’s clever, assured voice never disappoints. I’ll follow Jamie Harrow wherever she’ll take me! * Ellie Palmer, author of Anywhere With You *
Hilarity plus off the charts chemistry makes for a must read second chance romance. I absolutely adored it! * Laura Carter, author of Catch a Falling Star *
Jamie Harrow shines in her follow-up to her hilarious debut, One on One. Fun at Parties is the road-trip second- chance friends-to-lovers romantic comedy everyone needs to read! It’s layered with nuance about fitness culture, MLM endeavors, and financial struggles, and Quinn’s self-discovery is heartwarming and so funny. I was rooting for her from page one! * Danica Nava, author of Love Is a War Song *
Fun at Parties is a warm-hearted, richly layered romp that will leave you rooting for Quinn and Nate through the glitter-flecked parties and raucous music festivals and unexpected run-ins. At its heart, this is a novel about the hopeful pursuit of family - in all its forms - as well as a love story built on shared history and abiding loyalty. You’ll savor every moment * Nora Nguyen, author of Adam & Evie’s Matchmaking Tour *
Fun at Parties unfolds like a perfect, breakout pop song - pure sunshine, heart, hope, and fun with an unforgettable beat drop. I was hooked from the first chapter. This story is more than swoony settings and cross-country sexual tension; it’s a poignant, empathetic takedown of girlbosses, toxic positivity, and American hustle culture. I loved watching Quinn win! * Betty Corrello, author of 32 Days in May *
Jamie Harrow is fast becoming my favorite romcom writer whose social commentary is as sharp as her wit. In this delightful road trip romance between old friends who never got their timing right, she delivers delicious sexual tension, crackling humor, zany twists, and palpable yearning while shining a light on pyramid schemes, influencer culture, and toxic positivity. Grounded with flawed characters who have lost themselves a little bit as a byproduct of coping mechanisms, but who are ultimately good-hearted people just trying their best, Fun at Parties is more than a fun escape. It’s hopeful and tender and hot and sweet, too. And don’t sleep on Jamie Harrow’s male main characters, people! If your catnip is men written by women, start here with Nate. You won’t be sorry. All the stars for this book! * Melanie Sweeney Bowen, author of Where You’re Planted *
Packed with the author’s signature wit, propulsive chemistry, and unexpected turns, Fun at Parties lives up to the big amusement of its title. Readers will love joining Quinn and Nate on the road - just as they’ll love joining me in yelling, “I want to live inside a Jamie Harrow novel!” from the proverbial Denver baby shower rooftop * Courtney Preiss, author of Welcome Home, Caroline Kline *
Fun at Parties is everything I want in a romance. A sizzling and heart-felt story about falling in love and navigating life without losing yourself in the process, Harrow’s latest is just as fun as each stop in Quinn and Nate’s cross-country adventure. I devoured it * Katie Bohn, author of Romance is Dead *
Fun at Parties is a friends-to-lovers romance that reminds us that sometimes it takes the people who know, love, and infuriate us the most to figure out who we are truly meant to be. You’ll root not just for Quinn and Nate’s love story, but also them as relatable, messy people trying to discover where the future is meant to take them * Kate Hash, author of Gracie Harris is Under Construction *
Some books sweep you up, both emotionally and romantically, and Jamie Harrow’s Fun at Parties is exactly that kind of book. Full of heartwarming and funny moments, readers will fall head over heels for Quinn Ray’s road trip with Nate, the man she thought had once rejected her, but who she’s secretly been crushing on for years.

Fans of second chance/friends-to-lovers romance will absolutely adore this! * Emma Rae, author of I Knew You Were Trouble *

Full of hilarious side characters, hijinks, and heart, this book is an absolute treat of a romance! * Mallory Marlowe, author of Love at First Sighting *
A freewheeling romp that will please friends-to-lovers fans and armchair travelers alike * Publishers Weekly *
