Thank you for letting us get a sample of future books. This actually helps us weave through a lot of them so we don't have to request them first!

Spring/summer is big time for books releases and great vacation reads. This guide is a sneak peak at some of the one that have joined my to-read ranks in 2017. Hopefully getting to many of them will be a reality!

Love Buzzbooks! It always seems to come up when I have a bookslump and need a new author to read.
Lots of ideas for pushing the reader in directions I wouldn't necessarily go in such as non fiction.

Too many gems to choose from :) Gave me great recommendations for my summer TBR and I love the fact that the extracts are so long and the writer's details so full. Indispensable for all book bloggers

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

It contains an introduction followed by a section with a list of "The Notables", "Highly Anticipated", "Emerging Voices", "In Addition", "Debut Fiction", "Commercial Fiction", and Nonfiction. After that section there are excepts by publishers. I particularly enjoyed the excerpt for MAGPIE MURDERS by Anthony Horowitz.

Overall, a great list of buzzing titles for Spring/Summer 2017.

No review, but as always, appreciate the preview of upcoming titles and the ability to request digital copies.

I always look forward to these seasonal editions of buzz books, because it provides some intriguing excerpts to the most hot or anticipated books of the seasons, and also helps me decide if this was a book that I want to request or not. This was no exception and I enjoyed using it as a great resource.

**Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for providing me with an ARC in exchange for my honest review. All opinions are my own.**

Buzz Books, where have you been all my life? I only discovered your existence in the Fall/Winter edition and immediately was immersed in the potential excellent books I would be able to uncover. I was so excited to find the Spring/Summer edition and personally, I would say this is about as good as it gets for someone who loves to read. The excerpts from upcoming books are first-rate, not just a paragraph or two, but enough to let me decide whether or not to add another title to my ever expanding TBR list. Fiction, non-fiction, published authors as well as those just starting out, and I now have a calendar full of publication dates and books to enjoy. If only I had found you sooner, sigh, since I am sure that prior year Buzz Books were just as good.
