I always love getting these previews. I didn't really find any books that I wanted to review this time, but I look forward to the next one!

As a picky reader, samplers are probably nor for me, though they might work for you. Two of the sampled books are ones that I might read in hardcover, How Hard Can It Be and Tell the Machine Goodnight, so for that, I thank netgalley for the excepts.

This is a wonderful resource for many of the upcoming books. It includes some great samples of some books too.

Great excerpts, as always! I look forward to these every month. I'm always able to find books to add to my "to-read" list that I wouldn't have otherwise heard about.

It's been a few months since I downloaded a Buzz Books monthly so today I downloaded June's and have spent most of the day reading the excerpts.

I live in the UK so I have already read and reviewed Allison Pearson's How Hard Can it Be? It's a real treat and made me laugh out loud and cry in equal measure. Kate is not without her problems: a big birthday looming (50), approaching menopause, two teenagers, a house badly in need of fixing up, a drop-out husband going through a mid life crisis, ageing parents. This once successful fund manager needs to get back into the workplace to support her family financially but has to knock a few years off her real age to have any chance of a job. It's brilliantly written and very funny. Recommended.

I often find myself requesting titles by debut authors from NetGalley. I wish I had spotted The Emperor of Shoes by Spencer Wise on NetGalley UK and requested it before it was archived. I liked the excerpt and wanted more! I'll just have to look out for it and buy it when available.

The other book that I think I would like is Little Big Love. I think this has been published in the UK with the title Little Big Man. So that's another one on my wish list!

Now to work my way through the Fall/Winter 2018.

Buzz Books monthly is a wonderfully helpful look at what's being published in the coming month and what books are likely to be of most interest to readers.

Thanks PublishersLunch for doing this monthly. I love seeing what new books are coming out in the month and getting to read a few snippets so that I can base my book purchase on what i want to read. Always hidden gems within these titles

As always with Buzz Books installments I really liked the June one. I found some very good book recommendations and new releases that I am excited for.

One thing I look forward to, even in a reading slump (or especially during a slump!), is the monthly release of Buzz Books. What a fabulous reminder of what I have to look forward to in my TBR, as well as what I should be putting on hold at the library, for the upcoming month. As ever, never disappointed!

This is such an amazing resource for those who love hearing about upcoming books in one place. There is a downside to reading this though...my TBR list grows exponentially each time.

Thank you, NetGalley, for gathering some amazing titles and even excerpts of some wonderful upcoming releases!

Great summary of June's new books. I really enjoyed the chance to read the book excerpts, particularly as I would not have otherwise tried some of them. Several will definitely be going into my 'to read' pile.
Many thanks to netgalley for the chance to read it.

Another wonderful opportunity to sample upcoming books. In this installment of BuzzBooks, I was intrigued by Ann Mah's The Lost Vintage.
