I really do love seeing these samplers go up every couple of months so I can get a taste for what's coming out soon/what I can currently request on NetGalley.
I have already read another Buzz Books YA this year, so I was excited to check out the new releases in fall and winter. However, this time, most samplers didn't really make me want to read more. The ones I really want to read are Everless and All Rights Reserved. I was also thinking about reading Girls Made of Snow and Glass, but after the sampler, not so much anymore. So it was still helpful in making my decisions.
I like the concept of Buzz Books very much and recommend it to anyone who wants a quick overview over upcoming releases and to find out which books to request/buy. I also like that there are many different genres and types of young adult books (I think there was also one written in free verse?) and both big and smaller publishers.
I received Buzz Books YA Fall/Winter 2017 via Netgalley.
I love the idea of this and I will definitely be on the lookout for the next Buzz Books. It's a lovely idea as a smorgasbord of YA fiction to sample, as I often find myself sticking to authors I already know or books I know friends have recommended. Some of my favourites included Girls Made of Snow and Glass (you had me at feminist fantasy reimagining), The House at 758 (so relatable and emotionally impactful), The Sidekicks (Again, hit me right in the feels, but really funny and intriguing) and The Gatekeepers.
This is a nice sampler with lots of titles. As of December 2017, many have already been released, although some are still to come in the next winter months. (For example, Marie Lu's Warcross - I have already read the full book and it's great!)
I was glad to see an excerpt of Melissa Bashardoust's GIRLS MADE OF SNOW AND GLASS - although it's already released, I haven't picked it up yet. The excerpt made me more interested in purchasing a copy.
Overall this sampler is helpful for deciding new books to review, read and request!
A great overview of the new seasons upcoming YA releases.
What a great resource! Thank you for the previews! So many exciting titles.My TBR pile just got huge.
I always love this series, it's so helpful to get an idea of what is coming and to get to read a chapter. I will always download these!
As always, Buzz Books is a great reference for all that's coming and helps me plan ahead.
Great selection and mix! Love getting a preview of what is coming!
Not a review as I only scanned though excepts. However, I appreciate being able to preview upcoming titles and the ability to request digital copies. Thank you.
Why have I never seen this before?
This glimpse into upcoming books is just heaven......but it's also hell!
Tidbits of books to draw you in, you salivate over the sublime book offerings.....and then, bang, it ends!
Seriously though, I will be on the look out for these in the months to come so I can add these beautiful books to my book countdown app.
Fabulous, just fabulous.
Can't wait to pick some of these books up, this is such a great way to try out a book to see if it's for you.
Excellent samples! I'm looking forward to reading many of these titles.
Always fantastic! A great resource for anyone buying or recommending books!
Helpful as always! I hope this compilation will continue into the future. I find the combination of summary and excerpts to be great in my selection responsibilities.
Great to read about the upcoming stories this Fall and Winter. Can't wait until the books finally come out !!
I loved this edition of Buzz Books 2017: YA. I feel like it encompassed a wide variety of YA subgenres including some that I would never have looked past the cover of. It also made me really hungry to read some of the upcoming releases such as Everless and Your One & Only. I really look forward to future editions of this catalogue.
I really enjoy reading every issue of Buzz Books because every time I find many interesting books to add to my TBR. In this edition of Buzz Books 2017 Young Adult: Fall/Winter i discovered books that had heard and after reading an excerpt from it I added it immediately to my TBR. I also found books that I didn't know but I look forward to learn more about them and read them.
there are so many good titles coming out this fall and winter. I am so excited for all of them.
Great edition of Buzz Books. So helpful to book bloggers. Thanks!
