It's really convenient to have such a tool where you can get a taste of the book and then just click on the link to the request.
There are a lot of novels to look out for in 2025; I'm afraid it is bad news for those who want to see their TBR getting smaller !

This is a wonderful collection of book previews. I especially appreciate the Debut Authors section. There are some important new voices here, as well as some old favorites. An impressive array of genres.

This was such a great way to discover books I may not have otherwise seen! I liked the wide variety of titles and information given about each book. I’m looking forward to picking some of these up this year.

This was my first time through a Buzz Books edition, and I enjoyed getting to quickly read through excerpts of books I would have otherwise never tried. Quite a few grabbed my attention!

- Bury Our Bones in the Midnight Soil by V.E. Schwab
- The Listeners by Maggie Stiefvater
- The Seven O'Clock Club by Amelia Ireland

I LOVE The Buzz Books series from Publishers Lunch! Thank you so much for the inside scoop on what will be big in the coming season, and especially for the generous excerpts. The Buzz Books download always informs my purchasing decisions, reader’s advisory, and “TBR” list for the Pennsylvania Young Reader’s Choice Award Committee! I especially love to peruse the Buzz Books for potential crossover titles that will be popular with faculty members. This season I am especially excited to start reading The Listeners by Maggie Stiefvater and Shampoo Unicorn by Sawyer Lovett. Many thanks, and I look forward to future Buzz Books Compilations!

A fun and helpful sample of teasers! Avid readers should peruse this to plan their 2025 TBR pile. I loved the inclusion of the short synopsis before each excerpt, it made weeding through the vast selection much easier.

Thanks Netgalley!

A great resource for books to keep an eye on this spring and summer! I already have the advance copies of a couple of these, so it’s given me a push to move them up my TBR.

Excellent chance to peek into the publishing future. Forty-nine books in the categories Fiction, Debut, Non-fiction, and Young Adult. Looking forward to several review ARCs that I have requested.

Great to see what's coming out. If you tend to read the same genre this is handy as you can sample something that you might not have went for before. Great idea.

This has been a fun read to see more upcoming books.

I received a complimentary copy of the book from the publisher Lunch BUZZ BOOKS through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

Buzz Books is such a great way to review what is comingh up in the Spring/Summrer time - I found so many that I would like to read - this shows a lot of books that are coming out in the next season - you get an excerpt and it is just enough for you to get interested and want to continue reading - I even found a book or two or three that I wouldn't normally check out - you find a new author - maytbe even decide another genre - I am hooked on Buxx Books - and on top of that, you also havre an opportunity to get some of these books at the end of each piece - my next few weeks/molnths of reading is awaiting me. Thank you PUblishers Lunch. You have made a happy person and helped me find a new author or two. You will also enjoy reading the excerpts and finding a new author or find an author you llike is coming out with another great book.
