This is a very helpful book that includes some snippets of books coming out in spring and summer of this year. This is a great way to read a little bit of the story to decide if it is something you would like. I like the layout and format of it.

The book was definitely entertaining, and its short length helped maintain a sense of urgency that kept me turning pages. I enjoyed the flashbacks, I love nothing more than diving into a sampler of upcoming releases! This lineup features some truly amazing books that have me beyond excited. I really appreciated the thoughtful organization into categories like Fiction, Debut, Non-Fiction, and Young Adult, with helpful subcategories such as Notables and Highly Anticipated titles.
I was absolutely thrilled to see *Bury Our Bones*, *The Bewitching*, and *Atmosphere* included—total standouts for me. And I had no idea Maggie Stiefvater was releasing a new book… and it’s ADULT?
This sampler sparked so many fun video ideas and has become such a key tool for me. It’s perfect for knowing which books to request, what to keep an eye on, and it’s already helping me set up content ideas to introduce my audience to some of these exciting new releases. Getting to read the mini synopses has made me even more hyped for spring and summer reads!

Lovely book with lots of books coming soon ! Loved it and will be reading some of them. It's also super practical and gives you some opportunities to order some for a bookshop !

I look forward to each new edition of Buzz Books. Inside I find both lists of notable upcoming releases (from debut and well-known authors alike), as well as excerpts from many of them from to peruse. This volume has 49 such excerpts, fiction and non-fiction; some that caught my attention include Julie Clark's The Ghostwriter, Emma Donoghue's The Paris Express, Louis Sachar's novel for adults The Magician of Tiger Castle, Katie Yee's Maggie: Or, A Man and a Woman Walk Into a Bar and Jefferson Fisher's The Next Conversation. For all those who are interested in finding new (or new to them, anyway) authors, the Buzz Book series offer a sneak peak into a whole bunch of books of which you might otherwise be unaware. Highly recommend!

Buzz Books 2025 Spring/Summer
Thanks to NetGalley and Buzz Books for allowing me to read an arc of this latest compilation on upcoming books. This latest edition includes both fiction and nonfiction, debuts and young adult.
I love how there is both a summary and an excerpt of each book presented. This allows the reader to choose to read those that they have the greatest interest in. I was able to pick a few favorites that I will request on NetGalley.
My spring/summer TBR list has just grown!

This is my first time reviewing the Buzz Books, and I love it. It is so lovely to get a quick view of upcoming releases.

I always love to get these to peruse any upcoming releases. This one, like all the others, did not disappoint. Thank you to Netgalley for providing these to your readers.

I loved getting little snippets of the upcoming releases! This was a very fun way to learn about books coming out this year. I was especially excited about V.E. Schwab's new novel 🩷

Thank you for the opportunity to read and review the Buzz Books of 2025: Spring/Summer edition. I found it to be helpful and a great resource as I continue to lean into new releases that are in my favorite genres. This publication also helped me to discover new genres that might interest me. I am looking forward to an upcoming Fall/Winter version of this release in the future.

Book Buzz 2025 is extremely helpful in staying informed about upcoming releases and new authors and titles to watch out for. It helped me set my purchase orders for my library ahead of schedule and to know what to look forward to for. Highly informative and very useful.

For all who wish to want to know when authors they follow and enjoy will be releasing their latest work. And for anyone looking for a new author who has an intriguing work to be released. "Buzz Books 2025: Spring/Summer by Publishers Lunch is your go-to!

Really not something that I needed given how long my TBR already is, but I couldn’t resist. A lot of intriguing titles here and had to really be discerning not to request a good portion of them!

I loved this guide to all the new books coming out in 2025. I have added alot of these books to my TBR and requested several from Net Galley. This is a great way to shop for new books and I loved the excerpts provided. I will be looking for other editions of this in the future. This is a great way to explore new authors and different genres. Thank you for this incredible resource.

Picked only a couple that I'd love to read, but I really enjoy getting these little chapters, because sometimes I find I'm surprised by a new author or genre I'd previously thought I didn't care for.

At this point, it's easier keeping track of books I don't want to read. I enjoyed reading about the upcoming buzz books. Added some to my TBR.

I look forward to this Buzz Books edition every season! I love reading the excerpts and getting a sneak peak at what's coming out. The zoom to listen to the authors and agents is one of the best events - I love hearing information about a book straight from the author.
There are some really great books coming out! I've added so many of these to my TBR!
I'm loving this shift to more Gothic and horror reads and am excited about Gothictown, House of Monstrous Women, Blood Slaves. I've loved previous stories by these authors so I'm excited for The Ghostwriter, The Listeners & Bury Our Bones in the Midnight Soil! The Paris Express, The Girls of Good Fortune, and The Memory Hunters all sounds intriguing! And I See You've Called in Dead: A Novel sounds like the soul searching, touching book I need for 2025. And All the Other Mothers Hate Me sounds like the biting humor and mystery I need!
2025 is going to be an amazing reading year!

Buzz Books 2025: Spring/Summer by Publishers lunch, thank you for bringing so many new books that i get to add to my ever growing arc tbr. Some of these are new authors to me and I can't wait to read them and share the book reviews with my followers.
That's the best part finding new treasures. That's what they are treasures something created from an authors mind and made into a book. We then get to delve into and explore them. So thank you for bringing so many authors into the limelight and looking forward to reading them

This is my first compilation like this and Buzz Books 2025: Spring/Summer did not disappoint. I was able to find several books that were brand new to me that I am now very interested in reading. I appreciate that how well this collection is laid out and that it includes summaries of each book and a very generous excerpt. The direct link to request was also very helpful. I'm sure this was a big project to put together and I appreciate the diversity in both subject and genre. I would have liked a bit more breadth and variety in nonfiction and in the young adult offerings, but overall this collection is great.

So many exciting titles coming. Absolutely loving being part of the Netgalley family and excited to keep discovering new books and new authors.

There are some really interesting titles coming out this spring/summer, can’t wait to request and read them!
