I truly appreciate and look forward to this publication throughout the year. This one seemed to have more detailed subsections in the Non-Fiction area such as an essays section and social issues section.

I love these book previews so much! I'm always excited to see what books I can look forward to and then tell my friends to read.

Thank you Net Galley for the free ARC. Love getting Buzz Books,so I can plan my reading journey, put books on hold and make recommendations to my library for purchase. There are definitely some intriguing books coming out and subjects for every taste.

Really exciting to see what new titles are coming out later this year! I was delighted to add some new books by beloved authors to my TBR and I'm glad to have some debut authors for the year on my radar now.

Thank you! One of My favorite seasonal reads!! I get a lot of good RECS for the upcoming seasons! Wish it came as a magazine

As usual, a great resource for readers and bloggers as to what should be on their radars in the coming months. As anticipated, damage was done to the TBR.

I am literally freaking obsessed with these because it gives me a piece of each author’s writing style to determine whether I want to delve deeper into a book or not. And of course I get to read a bit of some books from authors I adore and am so excited for!!! In this one, the new Feeney has me sooooo excited and now I want it more than ever!!! Thank you so much for putting these together!!!

It's crazy the amount of great books that are being released!!! I wish I can just sit and read all the time without having to worry about bills and responsibilities!

As always, a fantastic addition to this terrific series that I part dread, it always has me wanting to read more than I possibly can, its coverage of upcoming books are littered with hard to resist temptations. I am particularly interested in John Irving, there are a wide variety of genres and will definitely be requesting and reading quite a few. Many thanks for providing this wonderful guide.

Buzz Books is an incredibly useful resource for avid readers. I never miss an opportunity to grab a copy. The guide is typically released on a bi-seasonal basis (i.e., Fall/Winter; Spring/Summer). I am extremely excited for several upcoming fiction releases this fall and one slated for next January! See if you can guess which one 😉.

Always a favorite. Love hearing what's coming up next.

Thanks to 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.

Oh. My. Heart....well, book buzz overload!!

Let's experience these emotions together...ready?
1. HOLY CRAP!!
2. WHAT DID I GET MYSELF INTO?
3. OK,COOL...SAM, TAKE THIS SLOW AND FOLLOW THE ORDER OF THE CONTENTS
4. I KNOW YOU'RE EXCITED BUT LET'S LITERALLY START AT PAGE 1
5. Ok, I'm calm(er)...layout is flipping fantastic and if you're following any sort of reading challenge or schedule this is perfect for you to find books to fit prompts (IE: DEBUT- LOVE LOVE LOVE)
6. Do I like...literally just start at the first Fiction book and move forward?
7. BUT EACH CHAPTER IS A NEW BOOK, I WANT TO SKIM ALL NOW!
8. Another cool feature is the section that highlights other buzz-y books releasing in the near future (ones that may not be in this preview) with their anticipated dates. WITH THE PUBLISHER NAME TOO!
9. ^ I won't lie, the book community is fierce but sometimes some great releases get lost in the mix of the online chatter and fall through the cracks (sad face, STUPID ALGORITHM).
10. ALL THE BOOKS, NOW!!
11. Oh, I LIKE THIS! Skimming through these previews and we get a close up of these GORG covers, a brief summary and then the BIG KAHUNA follows: the EXCERPT!
12. Excuse me while I grab snacks and a drink to dive in to add more books to my (never-ending) TBR.
13. Back to the task at hand- I really also liked that there was background on the author and some promo information in case you are a bookseller, influencer, etc.
14. I'm a fact-girl and appreciated the bullets at the end again listing the publisher, ISBN, price, pub date, pub contact (WHAT?!), Editor, and so much more.
15. CUE THE NEXT 24 HOURS OF MY LIFE COMMITTED TO GOING THROUGH THESE WITH A FINE-TOOTHED COMB. (Except for the YA- not my jam but GLAD IT'S HERE FOR THOSE WHO DO LIKE IT).

16, Excited for the links to read/request BUT it's sad for some of us who rarely get approvals (another sad face :-()
Happy to check these all out, thank you for providing such an in-depth and comprehensive guide to give us exactly what we need to decide if a book is for us!

I hope everyone also enjoyed this rollercoaster of emotions that I went on...if not, maybe it was just me?! ;-)

This edition of Buzz Books was packed with great excerpts in fiction, nonfiction, new authors and young adult. I am thrilled that Kevin Wilson's new book was included.

Thank you #NetGalley for the samples of various novels from fiction to non fiction novels. I managed to find a few novels that sounded interesting. However, the samples for mystery novels had more thrillers than cozy mysteries, I hope that there will be more samples from cozy mysteries in the future,

A lovely sampling of books to come during the fall and winter! A few were already on my radar, and this is causing my TBR list to grow quite rapidly. I'll keep perusing this over time, but I am loving having a little taste!

Always grab these when they become available. It is probably bad for me, but I love getting small glimpses of what is to come, especially if they may come from authors I haven’t read yet. I now have another long list of books to read and order.

I always look forward to the Buzz Books editions. I just finished this one and now have a list of books from favorite authors as well as some intriguing new titles for my TBR list. Looks like I am “booked” until January!
