This is cool!!! I loved reading about books to add to my list (like I need MORE books on my list..). I have discovered so many new authors thanks to NetGalley! Thanks for the opportunity to check this out!!

It was great to get a chance to see some of the hottest books for the coming months, although I felt the selection wasn't as exciting as it has been some times in the past.

I love reading about things I plan to read! I wasn't as excited about the book coming next season as I typically am, but excited nonetheless. Nothing makes me happier than reading-- except maybe sharing the joy of reading with my children and favorite customers. Completely a cheesy thing to say- but true!

Just when I thought I had enough books that I was looking forward too..... now I have even more! Thanks for this list! I loved it!!

Great selection of samples. I was especially excited to see Stephen Chbosky's new book included! It was also nice to see so many interesting-looking nonfiction samples. Thanks-these samplers are a big help when planning for blogging and reviewing!

This is fab! I can't believe I've not seen it before. Just had a lovely time reading extracts from several books that look brilliant. I look forward to reading the rest of them once they are available and also to seeing what the next issues of Buzz Books will recommend.

This selection of Buzz Books is incredible. It's a great way to get a glimpse of what we'll be seeing on future shelves. The debuts in particular look exciting and diverse.

This was my first sampler and I’m so glad I finally tried it! If you haven’t read it before it has excerpts from a variety of books. Each book is introduced with a brief blurb, although some are more detailed than others, followed by the sample. Each book is listed as a chapter heading on my kindle so it was very easy to skip through the books that did not interest me. Unless you really hate the description it’s worth giving the sample a try. I found a few books really interesting that I normally would have skipped based on the description. In fact there is one I really loved and will have to pre-order if I don’t get to read it through NetGalley because it was so riveting. There is fiction and non-fiction titles. This is a great way to check out new and different books and check out other writers I’m not familiar with.

Great resource. Love getting a head up for what will be coming out. It looks like there are some great books coming up for the fall/winter.

Lovely as always. I depend on these catalogs to highlight books I may not have heard about yet and start making a wish list.
I love the mix of samples this time!

Wonderful!

I really enjoyed reading about the newest books that will be coming out. It also helps me plan and add to my shelf on Goodreads. Several of these look great and I have already added them.

I loved referring to the Buzz Books every season to see the latest releases coming out! There were so many in here that are now on my lists and I can't wait to read them! I love that you can read excerpts from the first chapter to get a feel if the book may be a good fit before you request it. I always look forward to the latest Buzz Books coming out and I will continue to refer to this as my resource for some of the newest releases!

Always great. Love to find out we coming soon.

Thanks author publisher and Netgalley for the chance to read this book. While I got the book for free,it had no bearing on the rating I gave it.

I love this series of books. I can't believe I didn't really look at them before but they're great to read little snippets of upcoming releases. I've definitely added a whole bunch to my TBR. I've added books that I previously would've looked over, or wouldn't have been interested based on the synopsis but the excerpts pull me in so it's really amazing to discover new books.

I absolutely love seeing what will be available later in the year.

Thanks to Netgalley and Buzz Books for making this available.

I am grateful for the opportunity to read excerpts from new books to be published this year. Buzz Books is the best resource I have for delving into the publishing world to find the gems that have yet to be brought into the world. Thank you for making this available to NetGalley members.

Thank you again for giving an opportunity to get a closer look at some of the hottest titles coming soon!

Always appreciated. I made notes of books I might be interested in requesting from the lists at the beginning but surprisingly ended up changing my mind on most everything by the time I finished reading the excerpts I was interested in. One book wouldn't have been on my radar at all that I am now likely to request. Thanks for the sampler, as always!
