Loved this book! It helped me find so many more titles that I want to read and I'm excited for the fall/winter!

There are lots of great books to look forward to coming out in in the fall/winter!

I am most looking forward to The Shadows We Hide by Allen Eskens. I am also looking forward to Sea Prayer by Khaled Hosseini, Unsheltered by Barbara Kingsolver, Good Riddance by Elinor Lipman, We Are That Young by Preti Taneja, Look Alive Twenty-Five by Janet Evanovich, We Fed an Island by Jose Andres, and Lab Rats: How Silicon Valley Made Work Miserable for the Rest of Us by Dan Lyons. I will also be picking up the new books from favorite authors such as John Grisham, Elin Hilderbrand, Anthony Horowitz, and Liane Moriarty.

I always look forward to these Buzz Books!

By browsing the excepts in this compilation I found several books that I want to read in genres I do not usually read..

What a fantastic preview of books for the fall and winter. Adding a dozen or so to my must read list. This is an excellent source of information for fellow bookworms that like to be in the know.

Buzz Books 2018: Fall/Winter is a great resource for reviewers and readers looking for their next great read!

Containing Publishers Lunch’s guesses for the most popular books in the coming months, this book is an invaluable asset for bloggers, reviewers, booksellers and librarians. This is my first look at a Buzz Books and I can’t believe what I missed. This issue contains 20 fiction, 16 debuts and 4 non-fiction books. Each contains a short summary, an excerpt and publishing information with a link on most to request the book on NetGalley.

I enjoyed the opportunity to preview books outside my usual genres. I requested 2 books and wished for 1 on NetGalley. I downloaded 1 for a publisher for which I am autoapproved. I also requested 1 on Edelweiss that wasn’t available on NetGalley. Overall, I spent a pleasant evening finding books. The only downside is my TBR pile is digitally overflowing from my bookshelf to the floor—but that’s a good thing, right? 5 stars!

Thanks to Publishers Lunch and NetGalley for a copy.

A valuable resource, despite me being the wrong side of the ocean...still good to see titles being released elsewhere!

I loved this collection of book excerpts and reviews for up and coming books. I loved the previous Buzz Books collections, and once again this one had me scoping out a bunch of new books, and adding them all to my TBR. I am most excited for Lies, The Travelling Cat Chronicles, and Freefall.

A huge thank you to NetGalley for sending me a digital copy of these book previews in exchange for an honest review. I truly appreciate it!

A wonderful way to get informed, and prepared, for the titles which will soon be on shelves. A great resource and a ton of fun to read.

A very thorough compilation of soon to be released books! Books are categorized: fiction, commercial fiction, notables, highly anticipated, bilographical, essays, etc. Another feature the book offers is a summary of each book and an excerpt! The publication dates are noted as well. The only drawback is there is not a Table of Contents which would allow the reader to locate a particular genre easily. Excellent, otherwise!

A great resource for upcoming titles! There are quite a few titles I am really looking forward to.This is a great way to figure out which books to request for fall,

Was this review helpful?

This is a great tool to be aware of all the forthcoming titles. It is more directed towards literary fiction as opposed to commercial or genre fiction. That makes it less useful for me in terms of collection development but still interesting.

What a tantalizing and tempting compendium of the pick of new titles for late 2018. With descriptions and a generous extract chapter of each book, plus a link to request most of them here on Netgalley there's enough material here to tease your taste buds for hours. There's a great cross section from established authors and some great sounding debut novels as well as a smattering of non fiction. This is the essential companion for book lovers everywhere.

Thank you so much for making these excerpts available! They are so helpful in choosing books to request, especially if I am a bit unsure after reading the book description. Once I am able to read an actual excerpt from the book it is much easier to tell if it will be a good read for me to request/review, so I really appreciate these Buzz Books collections!.
