I always love the Buzz Books previews. It's so exciting to get a taste of new & noteworthy books that are coming soon, & it's organized in a way that is very useful to me, as there are certain categories (for example, YA) that I don't read. I love that debut authors have their own showcase. This is a "read now" that anyone on NetGalley can download, & while you do have to provide feedback or it will count against your score, I really find it an invaluable tool for planning my reading. I've already read a few titles included in this volume, & have others on hold at the library!

In the publishers lunch 20/24 spring summer edition once again we learn about fiction nonfiction debuts in young adult every time I am done with one of these books my TBR pile is loaded with great reads from many different publishers all different walks of life and a genre for any book lover. This one is no exception I love going back and reading past additions to find books I forgot about or didn’t see the first time I love these books and cannot get enough of them. Can’t wait for fall and winter edition. I just really wish they had a thriller/mystery/cozy section that would be so helpful. I want to thank publishers lunch and net galley for my free arc Papi please forgive any mistakes as I am blind and dictate my review.

What a great collection! I love having this to get a glimpse at some titles I already had on my radar as well as a chance to sample some I might have missed otherwise. I'll be adding several of these my list of books to read for sure. The book details and NetGalley links at the end of each selection are helpful for planning and to put in a request for any that really catch my attention.

Very interesting book and a lot of different stories especially the one's overseas. The children's books are interesting as well. This is a great idea because you get snippets.Of books which you might want to reader. And if you like them you can request them on Ne T gallery. To read more of them. I like how they divide it between fiction and And N o n fiction.. And they also include children's books which is really good. I also like stories where the writers came from The summaries were pretty good too.Because explained how this book was going to be published.

Super helpful resource to get a glimpse into a variety of upcoming books- including potentially some that may not have piqued your interest from category or cover alone, but you can get interested after reading a bit- thank you NetGalley!

These compilations are really great to use both for Readers' advisory and to see what I might want to read for myself. I appreciate getting a taste of different authors' writing styles.

Once again, I love and appreciate the opportunity to read excerpts of so many titles in one place so that I can be more intentional about my requests. From this edition, I was most excited to read Daughters of Shandong by Eve J. Chung and The Unwedding by Ally Condie.

Thank you, NetGalley!

BUZZ BOOKS 2024 is a fantastic resource for readers to get a sneak peak of some upcoming reads. I enjoyed perusing the upcoming titles and planning my spring and summer reads by requesting so many titles on NetGalley. I especially enjoyed the excerpt from LONG AFTER WE ARE GONE by Terah Shelton Harris. I was immediately drawn into the story with the complicated adult sibling dynamics. Thank you for the opportunity to get a look into upcoming reads!

This added so many more books to my To Be Read list on Goodreads. Maybe I should be more upset that I now have that many more books and still no more time to read everything I want to.

The Buzz Books compilations are valuable in my work as a book review editor and as a librarian. The excerpts have encouraged me to request and review several of the books included, and I look forward to reading others.
