Loved this edition of BuzzBooks. Added a bunch of great upcoming books to my TBR and ARC requests. It expanded my reading to surprising new genres. A great way to find out about new releases and promising debuts!
Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for this copy.

have been reading these books that give a preview of upcoming books for many years. They make it simple to build a list of books I want to read and read an excerpt.
I recommend them highly. Flag what looks good to you personally and build a collection of what you like to read.
Thank you to the publisher and authors for providing me with a copy of this book. You make my life easier and more organized.
All opinions are my own.

Great compilation of new books coming online for 2025! I have added a few books to my TBR now based on the excerpts. Thanks netgalley for putting this together and making it available.

Great way to expand my TBR! I wish I heard about this sooner and now I want to read more from Publishers Lunch.

Every time Netgalley releases a "book buzz" edition I get giddy. Not only does it list the books coming out along with publication dates and publisher information, but it also gives excerpts so you can "try it out" before requesting it! Brilliant! Each genre is represented and I love looking at the upcoming selections of nonfiction when that's not something that I often turn to. I have found so many good books that way! Thanks to the publisher for access to this wonderful book!

Unable to read due to LCP DRM. Sadly, that's not compatible with my Kobo. A pity that Netgalley didn't consult its users before changing its content protection provider.

As always, great collection of books. A few are now on my tbr and I can't wait to read them. One of the things I love is that I always discover new authors to try out, so I am excited for the books to be out.

Always love reading these because they give me an idea of some of the books that I may be interested in that will be coming out soon. This also lets me read a little of the book before I decide.

i love that we have a list of a lot of upcoming book available and a great variety of authors! also just discovered a few books that seems interesting

As always, “Buzz Books” is a useful preview of the most noteworthy titles coming to Netgalley. Apart from excerpts, I appreciate the long list of planned publications.

great to learn more about the upcoming releases in this year and to discover books that you might’ve never thought about

I love these kinds of samples. There's definitely some books from this sampler that I am interested in checking out.

This was a great preview of upcoming releases for Spring/Summer 2025! So many interesting titles in fiction and non-fiction are included, from well-known to debut authors. My TBR just grew drastically!

Always interesting to look through these catalogs and get a sense for what's coming up.
Appreciate sharing them with booksellers and readers!

I love these book previews not only to get a sense of what books are coming out, but to get a chance to read a few chapters of a selection to know which ones I really want to prioritize reading!

These books are great to get an idea of books you're looking forward too before they release. For me there weren't any books that caught my attention, but i'm sure there will be some for some people .

Great overview of a ton of upcoming releases. I've read many of these guides before and this one feels very in depth. They listed books from different genres: fiction, nonfiction, YA, and also a collection of debut authors. It also includes a large group of publishing houses. I found some new authors and titles that I will explore in the future! The comparisons to other well-known books/series were helpful (if you liked this, try this). I also liked that there are direct links to request egalleys on NetGalley. This definitely exposed me to books that I would not have known about otherwise. I love these overviews and will look for them in the future.

This was a wonderful preview of upcoming book releases for this spring and summer!
There was great variety among genres and topics covered in the books. There are mostly excerpts of fiction books but there are some nonfiction as well, I was really happy to see that there was a section dedicated to debut authors. I thought there could have been a few more YA titles included but otherwise there was a good range of books. A few excerpts captured my attention and I added them to my seemingly endless TBR.
I recommend this to anyone looking for upcoming releases they may be interested in. The excerpts included here are a good way to get introduced to new authors and stories.

This helpful overview of upcoming titles offered engaging teasers that covered multiple genres in fiction and non-fiction from familiar bestselling authors and promising newcomers. A much longer TBR list was the result.

There are some really exciting previews here! I love to get a sneak peak of these new titles before they're released. One I am especially excited about is The Magician of Tiger Castle by Louis Sachar. His Sideways Stories from Wayside School was one of my favorite books from childhood, and now he's finally written a novel for adults. He has such an incredible imagination.
The Paris Express by Emma Donoghue also sounds interesting.
I'm excited for some of these debuts, as well. It's thrilling to be among the first to read a promising new author. The Seven O'clock Club by Amelia Ireland has piqued my interest.
Thank you to NetGalley and the various publishers for early access to these excerpts.
