I received a free copy from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

I enjoy the Buzz Books supplements. They give snippets of some upcoming books and give you a good teaser to want to get the book.

A great source to look for books to add to your TBR. There are a lot of books featured and I love how it gives excerpts from the featured books because I’m able to see the author’s writing style. Plus it’s easier to know whether I really want to read the whole featured book or not.

These issues are always such an amazing help and I love reading these every time that they come out! I love being able to see early glimpses into new books coming up!

So many titles I'm excited to read! Love the excerpts :) I am especially looking forward to Unsheltered by Barbara Kingsolver, but was also happy to find some interesting title from debut authors.

Usually I am scrambling to devour Buzz Books, so I was a little disappointed when the July/August edition didn't have much that was of interest to me.

Books that I will read that showed up in this edition:

Good Luck With That - I am a sucker for Kristan Higgins. If you haven't read anything by here, you may as well start here. I have loved everything I've read by her. Its like a warm, cozy hug. Her books are total guilty pleasure reads for me.

Baby Teeth - This is one book that grabbed my attention... because I've already read it. Baby Teeth is horrifying and incredible and had me guessing till the very end. I LOVED it. This book is perfect for people who hate kids, are on the fence about kids, or just love to be creeped out by kids. I maaaybe wouldn't recommend this to new moms or people who think their child might be evil and bent on killing them. Its kind of nightmare fuel... but like... in a good way.

This is the first Buzz Books Monthly I’ve read and I loved it! I’ve added several more books to my “to be read” list. It was so helpful, I can’t wait to check out more issues. Thank you NetGalley!

I love Buzz Books for making me aware of what is coming soon in the book world. Excerpts from upcoming works steer me toward books I might otherwise miss and they help me discover new authors. The lists allow me to spot new works from authors I already love and am familiar with. I thought all of the books I read excerpts from in this issue look like excellent books and I hope to read all of them! I am especially interested in reading My Year of Rest and Relaxation by Ottessa Moshfegh and A Terrible Country by Keith Gessen - they look really interesting to me. I have already read an advance copy of Baby Teeth by Zoje Stage and it is quite a disturbing horror story.

Many thanks to Publishers Lunch for publishiing these great resources!

Interesting novels. I like how buzz books provides excerpts to give us an idea of which books we’d be interested in. Really allows us to explore genres outside our niche

As always, some interesting books to look out for. At least three caught my eye this time.

The first one is French Exit by Patrick de Witt, The excerpt ended too soon - I want to read more.

A Terrible Country by Keith Gessen also sounds good. Initially I thought it might not be for me but I think I would enjoy this one set in Russia. Andrei who has grown up in America, moves from New York to Moscow to care for his ailing, elderly grandmother who sounds like a wonderfully interesting character. Sounds like lots of potential for comedy and heartbreak. I guess I'll have to read it to find out.

The third book that appeals to me is Chariot on the Mountain by Jack Ford, a novel based on a true Court case from 1846 America.

Fabulous titles in the July/August 2018 Buzz Books Monthly instalment. Some wonderful new authors and titles I have requested and hopefully will be approved for.

Thanks once again for some great excerpts to digest.
