What a great way to sample many new to me writers. I think this is a perfect delivery method to open readers to many authors. I found the stories interesting, well written and worth my time. Thank-you for offering samples of over 40 books/stories. I was able to sift through and pick out a few new authors for me. Looking forward to reading the entire work they offer. I look forward to Diane Chamberlain's The Dream Daughter; Jude Deveraux's A Willing Murder; Barbara Kingsolver's Unsheltered , and many more.

This is a fun, great way to preview upcoming books - a chapter or so of each anticipated book is shared - the range is lovely and diverse - something for everyone. Some genres I’m not into and while i didn’t end up going past a couple of paras of a few, I appreciated the opportunity to sample. There were some good ones and debut authors as well - always great to see new writers being published. Three in particular I’m eager to check out - Paris Echo by Sebastian Faulks, The Air You Breathe by Frances de Pontes Peebles and The Traveling Cat Chronicles by Hiro Arikawa, Thanks NetGalley and all the publishers for providing a much-anticipated window into fall/winter 2018.

This is a particularly generous set of excerpts, covering a wide range of topics and styles. A little bit of something for everyone and well worth a look.

A very helpful compilation of upcoming bestsellers. I appreciate the Buzz Books collections, as they make it easier for librarians and booksellers to get a taste of what's coming soon.

This is a very informative book. I like how it is organized, however, for visual people it would helpful to see the cover of the book.

A new collection of excerpts from Publishers Launch that I thoroughly enjoyed reading. I am curious about a few of these books, so I'll keep an eye out for them.

I love receiving Buzz books as a librarian. It provides insight into the new and upcoming books which are great for ordering for our collection and readers' advisors.

Greatly assembled sampler. Several of the books selected to be in this one caught my eyes earlier this year. Reading the excerpts here is a great way to get to know a little more about them. Will be keeping an eye on The Silent Patient.

What a spectacular edition of Book Buzz by Publishers Launch. It is for the Fall/Winter edition. There are way too many books, good books at that, it is impossible to list them all here. Trying to go through the samples, one by one, would also take forever to discuss in this forum. Be assured that you will want to go through this book page by page, unless you don't want to add any books to your "To Be Read" list. Yes, mine increased dramatically. I just couldn't resist. Some of them were by well known authors like Michael Connelly, Sarah Pinborough, Jodi Picoult, Walter Mosley, Joe Ide, Khaled Hosseini, Anne Rice and Neil deGrasse Tyson just to name a few. There are a bunch of new authors are making their debut that look very exciting. There is a whole slew of non fiction political books that I personally will pass on but if that's your jam, there is lots of choice. The rest of the non fiction selections are varied and look so interesting. The book excerpts really introduced me to books that weren't on my radar, from authors I wasn't familiar with. Of course, some I already had on my TBR list but getting to read a bit is like having one square of chocolate. Can't wait to eat the whole bar! With the ones I wasn't familiar with I had a chance to get a sense of the author's writing style, a better feel as to whether or not I would enjoy the novel and too many of them were too good to pass up on. This will be an exciting fall/winter season if this is but a selection of what is being offered. Thank you to Netgalley and Publishers Launch for a free copy in exchange for an honest review.

A really useful and well-produced guide on the best up and coming books with that all-important excerpt. Beware - make sure you go through the whole thing before you start making requests, otherwise, you might find yourself swamped in books and struggling to choose what to read next!

Thanks to Publishers Lunch and NetGalley for providing a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

This is the first time I have looked and read these Buzz Books. I must say this is amazing and will continue to download these to keep in the loop. This will keep me prepared for my reading and requests here on #NetGalley. I love that I have a chance to read samples of great books that are yet to come! Great idea!

Lots of promising reads for the Fall and Winter. Look forward to getting my hands on the majority of these books to read in their entirety.

I really like this! Is there one available for middle grade and children’s literature? So awesome to see what is coming out and read an excerpt.
