These are an excellent reference for upcoming books. It’s valuable to be able to sample a book before buying it and I find myself buying a lot more books because of it.

Thanks so much to the publisher and to NetGalley for giving me access to this book. I love these quick snippets of novels coming out in 2017. I like getting an idea of what new fiction is coming out. Thanks again for this selection of novels. I have found a few that will be appealing to our patrons.

Another guide to YA books, with excerpts. It's good at his purpose but have nothing specific to talk about it.

This is not a book but a monthly digest. A useful tool for readers/reviewers

I never miss these periodicals. No reader that likes to be in the know should be without them. A fantastic source of information.

I love reading the monthly Buzz Books. I can always find a new author or two and get the chance to read excerpts of new books before they come out. I have found several great reads in the August edition. These are a great way for a reader to find a new favorite author and for authors to find new readers.

I look forward to reading Buzz Books! I always find something new to read. My partner doesn't like it because my book list has gotten longer every month thanks to buzz books! Don't miss it!

I look forward to the monthly guides to help me plan out my reading schedule. The excerpts offer a quick glimpse at what's hitting the presses whether it be fiction, non-fiction and the variety of genres that make up the wonderful world of reading.

I really enjoy reading the Buzz Books Monthly. It starts with the Publishing Preview roundup at the beginning of the book. This gives you a lighting fast roundup of all the noteworthy books coming out in August. It is categorized by books that deserve extra attention, literary favorites and emerging talents, debut fiction, commercial fiction, and nonfiction. Then, the remaining August books are listed by release date. It really gives you a complete picture of everything coming out that month.

The rest of the book is dedicated to a short preview of seven books. I particularly like the sneak peek of See What I Have Done by Sarah Schmidt where she reimagines one of the most infamous murder cases of all time. As a fan of true crime and mysteries, I am anxiously awaiting the release of this one. From the excerpt, you realize the narrator is seriously creepy and deranged, in the most wonderful way! I look forward to reading this one!

A chance to read excerpts from seven books that will be published in August as well as a list of numerous titles that will be released make this binge reader ecstatic! I just don't know of any other place where you can find so much information about books in one place. While quite a few books made my TBR list, at the top of my list is If the Creek Don't Rise by Leah Weiss.
Thanks to Publishers Lunch and NetGalley for another great Buzz Books Monthly.
