I really enjoyed getting sneak peeks of Buzz Books 2024: Romance. I loved the information about the book (synopsis, release date, number of pages, cover, etc) as well as a couple of chapters to give you a real preview of what you could read. There were my obvious favorites - B.K. Borison's "First Time Caller" has me screaming for more! And some surprises for me were the Mia Sheridan book "Heart of the Sun" as well as authors I hadn't heard of yet like Clare Osongco and her book "Midnights With You" or Kristy Boyce "Dating and Dragons."

To me, this was like the chance to virtually sit in a bookstore and pluck books off the shelf and read a few pages/chapters before deciding to buy or not. I really enjoyed this and would certainly do again if given the chance!

This was such a great opportunity to read some samples of upcoming romances. I have to say I've now made a list of books that I definitely need to read. Thanks so much.

What a fun little preview of some romances that are coming soon! I'm a major romance girl and I it's always fun to find new authors too! Can't wait to read these ones!

So appreciative of the opportunity to preview soon-to-be released titles. Not only does this give me the opportunity to add to my TBR, but also to discover new authors. Love these previews!

Thanks NetGalley for the Fall Buzz Books.

This just gave me so many more books to add to my TBR. I'm so excited that there's a new Jasmine Guillory coming out and happy to see the variety of topics/identities/sub-genres happening in romance these days.

This is my first Buzz Books sampler and I love it. I am thrilled to find excerpts from some of my favorite romance writers. But I am even more excited about and thankful for the exposure to debut authors. I can't wait to read many of the books spotlighted in these pages. Thank you so much NetGalley and Publishers Lunch for this sneak peak at upcoming releases!

Loved this!! It was great way to get a glimpse into new releases in the coming months and gave me some more romances to look forward to/add to my TBR.

I’m most excited for BK Borison’s First Time Caller, so it was so fun to read the first two chapters.

This book is amazing, it lets you read some chapters of books and makes you discover new books that I didn't know and that by only reading a few chapters I love, sure I will read some of these books completely because they let you with a lot of intrigue of what will happen in the next chapter.
It also makes you discover new tropes that I usually didn't read, but thanks to this book I started reading and loved. Of course, there are books that, maybe are not my favorites, but there are much more that I love.
I recommend a lot to read this book to discover new books, and, if one day you don't know what to read, enter here and you will uncover a lot of histories that you will love.
I gave this book 5 stars, and like I said before I will read some of the books that we found here, and I will publish my progress of these lectures on my social media, and I will give my review of the books I read.

I thoroughly enjoyed the excerpts in this book. Each one sparked my interest and left me eagerly anticipating their full releases. The snippets provided a tantalizing glimpse into the upcoming works, making me excited to purchase and read the complete versions. The diverse range of genres and compelling writing styles showcased have me looking forward to diving deeper into these books. I’m especially excited to see how the stories unfold in their entirety. Overall, the excerpts have set high expectations and made me enthusiastic about the forthcoming releases.

Oh my gosh I love all the sneak peeks to upcoming romance novels!! I’ve found so many I want to read within these pages and just went on a requesting spree! Eee! Love seeing new things from Mia, London, and BK. Can’t wait to read the full books of some of these after reading the excerpts. Thank you NetGalley!

There are some books that just weren't my style, but also some that are coming next year that I'm dying to get my hands on.

Thank you for the samples of upcoming romance novels. This is an efficient way to help select which books to read.

This was my first time to read Buzz Book excerpts for coming season and it is a great way to see and to Know which book will be out. It is also great way to discover new authors and books. Absolutely love this idea of putting together all of these excerpts.
Thank you to Publishers Lunch Buzz Books and Netgalley for a free sampler in exchange for honest feedback.

I always love these sneak peeks at coming books. The chance to read a bit helps me make a list of the books I really want to read.

I’ll always love these samplers, I’m not a huge romance reader, but I usually add a book or two on my tbr list thanks to them!

This was the first Buzz Books that I've read. I liked how it was separated into categories. I found a couple of new authors and have requested those titles. What a great way to try samples of books you might not have been interested in otherwise.

I love these samplers to find books to add to my TBR. Some highlights:

Excited for Midnights with You by Clare Osongco. I hadn't heard of it before, but I was looking forward to reading it. It has a beautiful cover.

I am also interested in My Funny Demon Valentine by Aurora Ascher. I hadn't heard of this one either.

I was already interested in First-Time Caller by BK Borison.

I read and enjoyed Kristy Boyce's last book, Dungeons and Drama, so part of the reason I picked up the sampler in the first place was to check out the sample of her new book, Dating and Dragons.

I love these samplers! They are my favorite for learning about new books to look out for in the next few months!

Great list! This download includes excerpts from a wide variety of Romance sub categories. In total, just under 400 pages
