This is very helpful in expanding my to-be-read shelf by a ton! I'm excited to see these be published

I love this. It gives excerpts of books to be released in the spring and summer of 2025. It shows the actual covers and bios of the authors. Price and release dates. This is long, 796 pages, but you can quickly peruse through and find books that you may want to request. It is also divided into categories for easy access for the genres you love

Buzz Books of 2025 gave me great hope for the books coming out this Spring and Summer. We have a lot of great literature to look forward too that I can't wait to get my hands on! I will be on the look out for another Buzz Books edition for the Fall and Winter.

I love getting these sneak peeks of upcoming books across genres to add to my ever-growing TBR! Also word to the wise for my fellow newbies, since this wasn't obvious to me: when you see the list of titles in the opening pages, these are all hyperlinks that will let you jump to a summary and excerpt of each title. Enjoy!

2025 is going to be such a great year of reading! Thank you for creating this resource for the community.

I always appreciate the opportunity to get informed on upcoming books with the Buzz Books publications. Thank you for sharing them!

This is a great way to note upcoming books and get snippets from ones I might be interested in. It helps take the guesswork out and keeps me from having to search in a lot of places for content reviews. It helps me stay in the know! I’ll be downloading every time it’s published. I do wish they had subgenres listed. And the list of the books is difficult to read from because it all blends together.

It’s always fun to see what’s coming out and what I should put in my already too long tbr. It’s pretty comprehensive. I just wish it included blurbs.

It’s always nice to see what is coming out soon! Having a solid overview of the Spring/Summer 2025 books is percent!

This was a great way to get a taste of what's coming soon in books! I've definitely added some new books to my TBR after this. I'll likely make a habit of checking these out when they become available each year.

I absolutely love when these books. It gives me the opportunity to read excerpts so I can make sure it is a book I want to request and read. I also love how the link to the book is at the end of the excerpts. Makes it so much easier to request it

Always a pleasure to see and preview upcoming books, especially debut works over the next few months. This is especially helpful as the acquisitions director of my library. Thank you for this opportunity once again.

Love being able to see what titles are coming out in spring and summer. It gets me excited for all the good reading ahead!

I love this concept and thought it was done really well. I would have loved if the "Fiction Preview" section was categorized by sub-genre. Since I am a selector for only certain genres, it would have been nice to go over the list for those specific ones instead of looking through the whole list and looking up each book individually.
I really enjoyed being able to read a segment of the different books though! Thank you for publishing a book list like this.

The Buzz Books Series had become my go-to as I curate my TBR for the upcoming season! I feature POSITIVE reviews on my Instagram platform so I am very careful in my reading choices, and focus on what I can genuinely recommend for my audience. This resource has become instrumental in my research as to what might appeal to me and subsequently my followers.
Many thanks for continuing to publish this incredibly informative communication.

I absolutely love these previews for the upcoming seasons. Always jam packed with amazing books to get your excited to request!!

Quite a compendium of excerpts from 49 upcoming books — divided into fiction (the largest section), debut, non-fiction, and young adult. This ebook is exceptionally large (almost 10 times the size of a normal book), but it’s a great reference for Netgalley users. I was most interested in a few of the novels that I was declined for (V.E. Schwab, Louis Sachar) — this will aid me in deciding whether I should purchase a copy upon publication, make a reservation for it at the library, or just move on. All in all, a great way to assist me as I navigate the new books of 2025. 5 stars!
Thank you to Publishers Lunch and NetGalley!

I look forward to this every season. It is a wonderful breakdown of upcoming books and a sneak peek into some of the more intriguing ones.
I think everyone appreciates the details given within Book Buzzes pages. We are given the author, title, publisher and also the very important date of publication. I put everything aside as soon as this comes out to see which books NetGalley is going to give us a look inside of. It is through Book Buzz I am able to learn of debut authors. It is a rich source of information.
My only complaint is that I wish the sample books were numbered, like chapters, so I could search through them more easily. I have a type I look for and have to mark the location of each book so I can slide back and forth between them. I’m sure this could be more user friendly.
This is still worth 5+ stars and I appreciate it every time it comes out. A big thank you to Net Galley and all the publishers!

Once again, a wonderful edition of Buzz Books. I look forward to every edition, and none has ever disappointed. I love to see what books are scheduled to be published in the next few months and to read excerpts from a few of them -- but my TBR list just keeps getting bigger and bigger after each edition of Buzz Books comes out!

Loved getting a little preview of a variety of books! Got to read a book or two that I had heard of and plenty others I never have and finding some gems to revisit in the future.
