I really enjoyed the mix of excerpts from all "young adult" age groups. I am looking forward to the release of some of these books.
I always waiting the Buzz Book because I can get an idea about a lot of book that I'm waiting. I have to say I only read the fantasy book because it is my jam.
And I cannot wait to have a lot of this book in my hand.
Love getting a quick little look into what is coming out.
This is my first time reading Buzz Books. It offers a great mix of upcoming ebooks, all of them high quality picks worthy of looking at! I look forward to reading some of these in more detail.
I've only just discovered these YA book previews, and I love them! The blurb and excerpts are a great way for me to explore new books, plus they usually give me enough information to booktalk the book with my students, even if I haven't read the entire book. Thank you so much for putting these together!

If you're like me, and know that one of your favourite authors is releasing another book soon but you can never remember when OR you want a browse of some of the most anticipated YA novels about to hit the shelves? This book is a GODSEND.
Here's the best bit: at the end of each section (composed of a blurb/summary and then an extract from the novel), there is a link to where you can request the novel on NetGalley - no fuss.
Suuuuuuper helpful, thank you NetGalley & the Publisher (Publishers Lunch)
Once again, a great collection of samples of upcoming YA releases! There were a lot of books I hadn't heard of before, but are now on my radar. Can't wait for some of these books!
This is a great reference! It gives enough of a sample of the books to truly get an understanding of what they're about and I appreciate the publishing information at the end
These books are so wonderful and I can't wait the chance to read these amazing books.
Many thanks for the book! I hope to review most of the titles listed here during the year.
This edition of Buzz Books gives samples of 18 upcoming spring/fall release YA books. Each sample contains a picture of the cover and a brief summary of the book. The sampling includes both established authors and debut. It would be nice if the samples were arranged more by genre, making it easier to dive right into your specific book interest. However, there are only 18 samples so it is not difficult to navigate to find titles that appeal to you. I highly recommend the Buzz Books 2017 YA edition, It's always fun to get a sneak peek at what is on the horizon.

Thank you to NetGalley and Publishers Lunch for providing a digital copy in return for an honest and unbiased review.
Very helpful for reviewers like myself to get a good idea of what's coming out in the next few months!
Showing off some of the amazing YA books that are coming out this spring and summer (American seasons) we have sequels by favourite authors, and debut novels in the genre. In this new electronic age it's harder to discover new authors or try books you're not sure of (our local bookstores keep closing!) and so I usually only find books by word of month. Collections like these make it easy to tally on book preorders once again.
Amazing to see the upcoming titles, as usual. A lot were added to my wishlist and I'm looking forward to them!
Interesting selection. Will request my favourites and review whole texts. Thanks
Fantastic selection of previews here ranging from Renee Ahdieh's latest historical YA, FLAME IN THE MIST, set during the era of feudal Japanese samauri, to a brilliant contemporary memoir THIS IS REALLY HAPPENING by humorist Erin Chack. What a great way to dip into a variety of upcoming YA titles.
