I read the preview for Abby Jimenez's new novel, Part of Your World, and was immediately sucked in. I enjoyed the two main characters and the interactions we saw between them in the first four chapters. I loved their flirting at the bar and Daniel spilling about the bet. Their interactions were cute and fun and I'm excited to see how their relationship continues to unfold.

I also really liked the humor reflected in the book. I am from the Midwest, and the line about guys Tinder profiles and how they're most likely posing with a fish is so on point. I laughed out loud at that part and I think that is about when I determined that I need to read the book.

Overall a great preview and I'm excited to read the rest of the book.

I really enjoyed this sneak peek of Part of Your World! When her car breaks down in the middle of nowhere, Alexis is rescued by a handsome stranger. After they leave a bar together, baby goats and grilled cheese sandwiches ensue! I was intrigued by this chapter sampler, it went by way too quickly! Jimenez’s writing is witty and relatable. I saw it was compared to Casey McQuiston and Emily Henry, which made me eager to check out this latest installment from Jimenez. I couldn’t put down this chapter sampler and I will absolutely be picking up a copy of this book when it is available! Part of Your World releases April 19, 2022. Thank you so much to Abby Jimenez, Forever (Grand Central Publishing), and Netgalley for a free sneak peek in exchange for honest feedback.

I was lucky enough to get a preview of the book Part of Your World by Abby Jimenez and let me tell you it was the quickest four chapters ever. From the moment I scrolled to the first page I was hooked. From funeral to one night stand? I can not wait to get my hands on this book and see what happens next!

Oh my goodness, how does Abby Jimenez keep getting better and better! (I love that, don’t get me wrong!) I only read the first few chapters with this preview, and I NEED to finish this book ASAP! I have read all of her other books, and I know this book will be another favorite. Abby Jimenez, I’m so grateful for you and the talent you share with all of us! I’m also a fellow Minnesotan, so I’m even more proud of you! Forever Publishing, please consider approving my request to read the entire book on NetGalley. Now that I’ve gotten a taste, I won’t be able to wait until April 2022 to finish!

I’ve read the first 4 chapters. Honestly I’m hooked. I just need to find a copy in the next 6 months so I can finish. The story starts out great but I want to know more about their struggles and what the 2 characters have in common. The MMC seems super sweet and he has a Kid!

Abby Jimenez writes the best Meet Cutes and this one is right up there. I'd love to see Small Town Iowa guy get together with Big City Minneapolis woman. I can relate. I'm the small town girl, that met a big city guy!

Thank you to NetGalley and Abby Jimenez for the advanced reader copy of the first four chapters. I will update once I read the final book.
At this point, Abby Jimenez is definitely a must buy author for me. Though I had some personal issues with Life’s Too Short, I generally love her books. This one has definitely grabbed me at the start. Alexis and Daniel (even in the short bit I read) seem like characters who will be well fleshed out and I’m excited to see where the plot goes.

Loved this preview and can’t wait to read the rest. I’m just a few pages, Abby has set up an intriguing story and Alexis and Daniel have promising chemistry.

4 chapters is just not enough! I can't wait until I can read more! Abby has done a wonderful job of creating a world where you feel like you are sitting next to the characters and watching the story unfold. Abby has promised her readers that there will always be a dog in her books, but now she upped the ante to include a baby goat in pajamas! I wish I could have read further to see how that played into the story more. April 2022 can't come fast enough for me to read the rest of the story.

I’m so excited for this book and this little teaser made it even worse! I’m interested already and can’t wait to see how this love story plays out! Love Abby’s writing and looking forward to seeing what she has come up with next.

Ahhhhh...Abby Jimenez is such a great story teller. This preview just gets us started with the first 4 chapters of Part of Your World, but OH what a world it is! She had hinted in one of her TikTok's about how this story begins, and it's all that AND a baby goat in pajamas! The unlikely pair meet on the side of the road in a small town, and we've got just enough to make us start a countdown calendar until April 19, 2022 for the FULL release of this 4th book from this delightful author!

This review is only for the first 4 chapter preview of Part of Your World by Abby Jimenez. After being immediately thrust into the unfortunate situation of Alexis, stuck in a ditch after attending a funeral of a family member, we are introduced to sexy bearded Daniel, who saves the day and tows her car out. When their paths cross again later that night, their banter is cute and chemistry palpable. The preview leaves the reader looking forward to how the romance between the two will play out, while foreshadowing the class mismatch that will likely impact their budding relationship. As with Abby's previous novels, we've also been introduced to Bri, Alexis's best friend, and hope for more of the hilarious yet off color type of forever friendship Abby wooed us with in TFZ and HEAP between Kristen and Sloane. When the characters can pull you into a book so quickly, it is very promising that the book will be a 10/10. Can't wait to read the rest!

A preview to the new Part of your World from Abby Jimenez. This is the 4th book form Abby and just like previous ones, is already drawing me into the plot. Being able to only read the first 4 chapters, I’m instantly hooked! Good reading on a cool morning with some hot tea- the characters are relatable and the story flows so well between the Alexis and Daniel’s point of view. It’s a quick read- but that is also sad that you get through the story so quick and crave more! There’s online groups for readers that have read her books and I will definitely be joining this one!

Abby Jimenez does not disappoint with her laugh out loud humor and likeable characters. Part of Your World immediately grabs the reader and even thought we don't yet know these characters, it feels like coming home to old friends.

It was hard to read just 4 chapters, I wanted to read so much more. I love that with only 4 chapters you get an idea of the book and get to know the characters. It is a fast read that engages you, really hard to put down. It is funny in a smart way. I cannot wait for the whole book. Abby did it again!

What a great beginning to another addictive Abby Jimenez read! I can’t wait to read the rest of Part of Your World! The characters and plot have already drawn me in and I’m invested in this story! I’m here for Alexis, Daniel, and all the baby goats!

So excited to read the rest of this book! While not a YA nor HS appropriate based on her other novels I will be recommending to friends and purchasing for my private library when released.

Abby Jimenez is my favorite author! I love how she writes books from each character’s perspective. It really makes you get to know and love them! She is one of the few authors who makes me laugh out loud while reading a book.

I was granted access to the first 4 chapters of Part of Your World, and I’m hooked! I have no idea how I will be able to wait until April 2022 to finish this book! I’m praying to the book Gods that I will get early access to the book to find out how Alexis and Daniel’s night went. Daniel must make one real good grilled cheese! I can’t wait to read the rest of the book!

Review so far is Wow, one of my favorite authors Abby Jimenez does it again. Characters that are real and make you feel all the feels. We are starting a Romance book club at my library and her last book Lifes too Short is definitely my pick. Alexis and Daniel live such different life styles but that doesn't matter when it comes to love.

Oh my goodness…Abby did it again! Only 4 chapters but I am already so in love with the characters, the story line, and of course the dog! Abby never disappoints. Her style of writing is so engaging and so funny! It’s going to be a very long 6 months until I get to read the rest of this book.

First four chapters:
As usual, Abby Jimenez gets me hooked immediately! My biggest complaint here is that I got only a four chapter preview, and the chapters were too dang short!! In her usual style, Abby has created realistic, witty dialog, and characters you can't help but feel invested in. As early as the third chapter, she threw a little trick in there, with a reference to a "kid!" You think you know what's going on, but this author is great at keeping the reader on his/her (let's face it, mostly her) toes! I can't wait to get my eyes on the remainder of this book! I'm hoping I won't have to wait until April, but if I do...well, time seems to be speeding by these days.
