I look forward to Buzz Books, they let me know what books to add to y evading list. My main reading is usually Mystery/Thrillers, but reading excerpts in buzz books lets me look into other types of stories. Thank you for the book.

A nice overview of upcoming books, including publication dates and excerpts. There are a lot of good books coming out in the next few months!

Thank you NetGalley and all of the publishers /authors for allowing me to read this book for my honest opinion.

I found so many books that I have to read. I absolutely love this way of finding my next read. I get to read a few chapters of so many books. I can decide if I like it or not. I was able to make notes about each one.
I could easily find my new favorite author and publisher.
I am going to do this format again and I recommend this to all of my friends. This saves time in so many ways.

I always look forward to these Buzz Books. They provide an invaluable preview of the best books coming up soon. Such a great idea to be able to read an extended excerpt.

I really enjoyed reading about all the upcoming books. I wish quite a few of them would be sooner , that is like now.

My reading preferences are not diversified enough for this book to be of value to me. Now if a publication came out with good, clean Christian writers' books, I would love that. At first I found the layout to be confusing on the Kindle. I can see how this "catalog" would be helpful to those who read all types of books.

I received a copy from NetGalley for an honest review.

Love these! Getting insight into what books are to come always get me excited for reading, and helps me create a list of what books I want to buy when they come out!

Thanks again Buzz Books for providing such an in-depth look at what's coming up. I love reading excerpts from upcoming releases. Very excited for what's to come in 2019.

Always love these! Great help in finding out what’s new and upcoming for the spring and summer. Not that my TBR list needs any more titles! But it's also helpful to me in curating lists of upcoming new releases for my blog.

Buzz books bring us again interesting books coming out this year. Excited to read my new batch of books for this spring and summer!

A really good collection of books that I wouldn’t necessarily have picked up. Most are authors that I haven’t heard of, but would now consider looking out for.

My thanks to Netgalley

I am always thrilled when the new Buzz Book editions appear. What a great way to sample a huge number of new books (44 to be precise) from various publishers complete with summaries. If, by chance, you haven't scoped this out and your nose is always buried in a book - this is a MUST.
Remember though that these are sampler excerpts of forthcoming publications.
I received an Advance Review Copy of this book from netgalley. All opinions are my own.

a good selection of upcoming book previews by buzz books. To be published in the spring and summer of 2019.

I love this! What a fantastic way to preview a smattering of upcoming releases. This maybe the single best reason to have signed up for NG!

I am really anticipating several of these books. I can't even narrow down the genre because there are books in the fiction category as well as the nonfiction category that appeal to me. I am excited at how many great new reads are coming, some of which I have been approved for early releases on, and others not. Either way, its been a wonderful introduction to the new releases to anticipate.

I always look forward to reading these so I can see what I need to add to my TBR list. I especially like finding new books from authors that I have read for years, so both “The Night Window” by Dean Koontz and “The Second-Worst Restaurant in France” by Alexander McCall Smith went on my list immediately. I know I will be buying Martin Walker’s new Inspector Bruno for my husband. One of my (relatively new) favorite authors is Ruth Ware, so I look forward to August when “The Turn of the Key” is released. I am not a usual reader of non-fiction, but I love Mel Brooks, and hope to read Patrick McGilligan’s “Funny Man: Mel Brooks.” As always, some of the new writers look promising as well. Thank you to NetGalley and Publishers Lunch for a digital copy in exchange for an honest review.

“You’ve just read an excerpt from . . . “

ARGH!*@! I hate it! I keep telling myself I won’t fall for these insidious publications again, but Publishers Lunch keeps making previews freely available, and I can’t resist. They have so many previews of all kinds of interesting books that I keep adding to my great mountain of books To Be Read!

I didn’t count how many are in this particular volume which covers Fiction and Non-fiction and debuts. I have my eye on a few that looked interesting. You may recognise favourite authors here, but I'll just mention a few books that caught my reluctant eye.

"Roar" by Cecelia Ahern has three of the stories in her book of 30 stories of women. I liked these three, but I have no idea what the rest are like.

=========

"The Guest Book" by Sarah Blake is another that had an interesting chapter with a startling ending. The blurb says it follows three generations of a powerful American family that used to run the world.

=========

"The Seven or Eight Deaths of Stella Fortuna" is the debut novel of Juliet Grames, about a pair of elderly Italian sisters who aren't speaking to each other. The premise doesn't sound nearly as interesting as the chapter I read would suggest. I'm afraid the title may suffer because of similar titles that are out now, but that shouldn't detract from the story. I enjoyed what I read.
=========

Another quirky debut is "Ellie and the Harpmaker" by harpist Hazel Prior, who doubtless knows her harps. The excerpt here features a bored wife, walking in the woods and finding an unusual man in a barn filled with harps he's made. Good reading, I hope.

==========

I really enjoyed what I read of "How Not to Die Alone", a debut by Richard Roper, who was inspired, he says, by an article he read about a guy whose job it was to track down any kin of people who had died alone. The chapter included is the protagonist "representing the family" (whom nobody's found) at the funeral of a man who died alone. It shouldn't be a funny situation, but it is. The publisher refers to fans of "Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine" as the sort of readers who might enjoy this.

==========

"On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous" by Ocean Vuong is poetically horrendous! I may have to read it because it's so compelling. Vuong is a poet, but this is a debut novel, and the combination of poetic language and a macabre scene in Vietnam introducing a character is sort of can't-look-away awful. But also awfully good.

==========

The last I'll be looking for is Valerie Jarrett's account of her years meeting and knowing the Obamas, "Finding My Voice: My Journey to the West Wing and the Path Forward". The excerpt included is when she met Michelle for the first time and offered her a job. Gotta be a good book, I reckon!


And so, my list grows ever longer.

Thanks to NetGalley and Publishers Lunch for the preview. Buzz Books are all Read Now on NetGalley, or available to all free at http://buzz.publishersmarketplace.com/

There are editions for Romance, Young Adult, etc.

This was a great introduction to some great new books coming out soon. Can't wait to get my hands on several of these.

A great way to sample new books. It's a big help to my finances. It keeps me from buying books that I find are not suited to my taste.
Thank you #NetGalley for offering this great resource.

This is a fabulous support for readers. I really enjoyed this years group of excerpts. It gives us a glimpse into upcoming titles in a nice comprehensive book. This is such a great way to get a peek at the upcoming books for the season! I love it! My thanks to Netgalley and the Publishers for my copy. This is my honest review.

So many books!!! I'm so excited for some of these to be published. I always love looking through these catalogs and seeing what is coming in the new season.
