I love reading so many excerpts and discovering new authors and books. The Buzz books are fantastic for that

Had a really great overview of books, that have now made me excited to read books in genres I usually wouldnt care about.

I absolutely love reading the excerpts in the Buzz Books monthly list! For January, I am especially looking forward to reading Frostblood in its entirety! And the cover is incredible! Caraval also sounds so amazing!

This is a great collection of excerpts of upcoming books for the month of January 2017.

It contains an introduction followed by a section with a list of anticipated debut fiction, commercial fiction, and nonfiction titles. Then it has a section of "Week by Week" title releases and at the end some book excerpts that were originally published in Buzz Books 2016: Fall/Winter and Buzz Books 2016: Young Adult Fall/Winter. I particularly enjoyed the excerpt for CARAVAL by Stephanie Garber.

Overall, a great list of buzzing titles for the month of January 2017.

A great selection of books, some of which have caught my eye before, such as Frostblood, which looks a particularly enticing read. Really enjoyed perusing the books given, much appreciated. Many thanks for providing such a stellar service of the books coming up and published.

This was my very first time reading a Buzz Book monthly sampler and I really enjoyed it. It's a great source that can help broaden your reading horizons. I hope this will help me get out of my confort zone and into books I wouldn't necessarily pick up otherwise. Fantastic preview format of the books coming out in January and a fantastic selection of excerpts .

Concise but complete. A great guide to the titles brightening up the start of the new year!

Excellent preview. It made me realize how unfamiliar I am with books outside of the young adult genre. Reading this put books and authors on my radar that I may not have otherwise encountered. I also appreciated how many books were included in this edition. I look forward to future installments.

Interesting way to find new books/authors to read.

Great excerpt collection! Caravel, Frostblood, and Things We Have in Common all peek my interest!

The January edition brought excerpts for six books, two of which, I had some interest in prior to seeing them here - History of Wolves and The Fire By Night (how great is this cover?). The excerpts push me over the edge from ‘interested’ to ‘have to read’. The other thing I love about these monthly compilations is the extensive list of releases for the month, by genre. It’s nice to have it all in one place and to be able to go back and see what I might’ve missed. The January edition was a win for this reader.

Thank you for these collections - they are so helpful for getting a feel for what's coming out! It truly helps me "sell" the books to our patrons when I can sample.

This book was a great help and a wealth of knowledge for those looking for more information on the industry. Although I would not recommend it on our magazine site for readers, I have recommended it personally to many up and coming authors and writers. A great compilation and packed full of helpful information.
