Worth snagging to get a glimpse into upcoming releases whether or not you're looking to increase your monthly or yearly tbr.

What can you do during a hot summer? I can read one of the books included in this inspiring list of books that will be published soon.

Great opportunity to test out some of the most anticipated releases! I got this only to read French Exit by the amazing Patrick DeWitt but I enjoyed quite a few of these previews!

This was the perfect preview to get me excited about forthcoming books! I enjoyed the preview excerpts of How To Walk Away and Baby Teeth! Thanks for directing my attention to books I may have otherwise missed!

A fantastic resource to have has a blogger who likes to know the newest and exciting upcoming reads . A great way to discover hidden little gems that I might not otherwise hear about.

so excited for some of these!! I just genuinely like the idea of being able to pick up my next reads from before, and I can say that some of these were really good and I just really hope that the full books will be just as interesting. Maybe not all of them suited my usual genres that I pick from, but I am still very much excited..

I always love receiving the previews that Publisher's Lunch puts out. This one did not dissappoint! There are many good previews in this Buzz Books

I love Buzz Books for doing this! You must read this book! Or, really, you need to read all the excerpts in this book! Buzz Books takes all the hottest books coming out this year and gives you a short excerpt from each story. Then, if the book is still open for advance reading, you may be able to request a copy of the full story to read. Even if you do not get a chance to read the full story right away, at least you have a chance to find out what interesting and dynamic books are about to come out!

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for giving me an advanced copy to read. All opinions are my own.

These are always excellent selections of what's coming up in publishing. I won't even attempt to summarise anything, just advise you to keep an eye on the Publisher's Lunch website or NetGalley to make sure you grab a copy of their monthly and quarterly previews.

Thanks to both the publisher and NetGalley for the copy I have. Browse and whet your appetite!

I really love these Buzz Books. Being able to read the first chapter, sometimes more than a chapter, of books is awesome. Many good books coming up. There are some notable ones that I would like to read:
Part I: Fiction
How to Walk Away by Katherine Center
Hurricane Season by Lauren Denton
Auntie Poldi and the Sicilian Lions by Mario Giordano
The Heart Between Us by Lindsay Harrel
Good Luck with That by Kristan Higgins
The Lost Vintage by Ann Man
Wicked River by Jenny Milchman
How Hard Can It Be by Allison Pearson
All the Beautiful Lies by Peter Swanson
The Summer Wives by Beatriz Williams
Part II: Debut Fiction
This I Know by Eldonna Edwards
Sometimes I Lie by Alice Feeney
Part III: Non-Fiction
Can't Help Myself by Meredith Goldstein
The Neuroscientist Who Lost Her Mind by Barbara Lipska
Fact Ful Ness by Hans Rosling
A Handful of Happiness by Massimo Vacchetta
If you have not checked the Buzz Books out yet, you really need to do that.

I got this specifically to check out the new Patrick DeWitt, which I have to admit I was pretty disappointed by. However, it did introduce me to the Oracle Year which I subsequently bought and really enjoyed, so definitely not a wasted read! I also went on to get and read Good Luck With That by Kristan Higgins, which I was less enamoured with, despite its promising start. Win some lose some!

I added several books to my reading list; maybe not as many as some other editions in the past, but there were still lots of great books here and I appreciate the sample chapters.

This snippets and previews are really great for finding out the new titles and what books are good to recommend for customers, especially those looking for reader's advisory, or those who like the newest titles.

I always love reading this little look into what is coming up. I always find a new author that delights my addiction for books.

What a treat! It was great to have the opportunity to read excerpts from so many buzzy books! The choices were diverse and the book itself is put together very nicely.

What a great source of forthcoming books! There are 22 excerpts in fiction, 11 in debut fiction and 7 nonfiction. It was such a treat to read these! I only have one problem with this book, my to be read list is getting longer than shorter! I think this is a terrific way to discover new authors and titles.

I always look forward to the next Buzz Books. It is such a great reference for keeping an eye on upcoming books. In the edition I am particularly looking forward to Aimee Molloy's The Perfect Mother.

This pack has a range of books, within separate sections. I'm excited for so many of these books, mostly the fiction books. Each excerpt is just enough to get you hooked, without giving away too much before you get started.
