Thank you to NetGalley and Publishers Lunch for this collection of excerpts for various titles. It is always helpful to read excerpts to find new authors and titles I might not have heard of before.

Thanks to NetGalley for this fun sampling! I loved the opportunity to explore new authors, and look forward to adding some of these to my ever-growing TBR pile.

Thank you for a copy of Buzz Books 2024: Fall/Winter edition. I really enjoy the opportunity to preview samples of books I may wish to try in the season or the future.

Buzz Books is a never miss request for me! I love it! I love discovering new to me authors and upcoming new titles from my favourite writers. After reading Buzz Books my TBR shelf on Goodreads has always grown with the new additions.
Here are some of my standouts from this edition:
Homeseeking by Karissa Chen
William by Mason Coile
The Stolen Queen by Fiona Davis
City of Night Birds by Juhea Kim
The Sequel by Jean Hanff Korelitz
Every Moment Since by Marybeth Mayhew Whalen
Libby Lost and Found by Stephanie Booth
Penitence by Kristin Koval
Thank you to NetGalley and Publishers Lunch for providing a digital copy in return for an honest and unbiased review.

This was a great way to find out the exciting new reads that came out last fall. Love that the links are included to the ARCs!

The Buzz books collections are always a fantastic way to find new authors to explore and plan out your reading for the upcoming months. I always look forward to them!

As with previous Buzz Books, I find it incredibly helpful to find new books and excerpts that give me an idea if I would want to follow up with a reading of the whole book. Also it gives me a lovely reconnection with authors that I have previuously loved, and can find out a bit more about them. Keep it up. It's a valuable resource. I've been slow to review, as I would refer back to it, and didn't want to comment until I was finished.

Found some great reads and look forward to Buzz Books to discover titles I may not have noticed. I love how the link is included for the galley! Thank you

I love these collections. I always find books I've never heard of that I add to my TBR and request on Netgalley.

This collection of samplers is a lovely way to discover debut authors and new books.
I'm glad I chose to download this because I came across a really lovely read, The Teller of Small Fortunes by Julie Leong.
As a direct result of reading this sample, I purchased the FairyLoot special edition through their monthly subscription.
Although I am yet to read the rest of that book, I am looking forward to it once I work my way through my backlog of ARCs.
Thank you to Publishers Lunch for the Buzz Books 2024: Fall/Winter collection.

I love these sampler books. They are so helpful to find new books coming out and give a taste as to what the book is going to be like

I am always a huge fan of these preview compilations! I love to see what's new in the coming months, & I love the spotlight section on debut authors. I always find really exciting new reads this way. The curation is excellent.

Always enjoy these compilations to give me many ideas of what's coming. Thanks for allowing me to review.

Great way of finding out what comes out in the Fall/Winter of 2024. I try to get each one of these every time they are made available on NetGalley.

Buzz Books is terrific! A thorough review of the upcoming publications puts books on my radar that might disappear in the noise of new announcements. I particularly appreciate the advance notice of emerging and debut voices. Although the books don't always grab my attention, they are always worth noting and considering for my ever growing Read Soon and Recommend piles.

Once again, I loved the opportunity to preview so many great titles coming out this winter. The ones I was most interested in were, Rental House by Weike Wang and Penitence by Kristin Koval, which was a stunning debut novel.
Thank you, NetGalley, for the opportunity to preview so many titles in one publication so that I can decide which ones to pursue!

I always appreciate these Buzz Books Samplers - they give me a great way to taste some upcoming releases, without the time commitment of reading a whole book!

I always appreciate these previews, which I check out regularly every season - they help me stay informed about upcoming books, especially those which I may want to select for review. Thanks for offering them!

We all know that this is not actually a book but a list of titles that are going to be coming out or have already come out. It helps to know what are the books that are going to be popular or that we suspect are going to be popular as the library wants to make sure that we have enough copies of books to provide to the public.

I understand how frustrating it can be to read small sections and ultimately feel overwhelmed, leading to giving up on a book midway. This format is not for me.
