Buzz Books is an essential resource for discovering upcoming book releases for the next season. This compilation is excellent, with its excerpts proving to be very useful.

This is another amazing BuzzBooks selection!! The three ARCs I received from the titles included in this compilation are the following:

1. A Reason to See You Again
2. Sky Full of Elephants
3. William

I did not request Fiona Davis' ARC because she is one of my auto-read authors and I would rather purchase the hardcover of The Stolen Queen when it comes out and make it my first reading experience. In other words, I want to be a treat.

Thank you, Net Galley!

My first time requesting a Buzz Books and I really enjoyed it! While not all of the stories are my preference, as a librarian, I marked several to-order for my library. Among the titles I did read, I'm most excited for (and requested), Every moment since by Whalen and Penitence by Koval. I'm also eager to read The fabled earth by Brock, The sequel by Korelitz, The other March sisters by Epstein, Malinenko and Parker, and Brightly shining by RIshol. Thank you Netgalley for this fantastic sampling of new titles for Fall!
