I loved this sampler collection of 2018 fiction books.
I most especially enjoyed One Day in December. Before picking this up I wouldn’t have heard of it.
I highly recommend this sampler.

There are some great reads in this sampler. I have already read one of them and plan to read at least a couple of them.

Fantastic as always! Sorry I forgot to rate this earlier, but I am still working off the list and enjoying may of the titles!. Keep them coming! Thanks!

Penguin Random House has such a great selection. I plan on using this sampler as a trampoline to tackle my TBR pile. I enjoy a wide variety of genres, and love that this sampler covers a range of selections. I am looking forward to checking out My Sister, the Serial Killer and I already know I loved Josie Silver's We Met in December.

Thank you for this sampler! Many of these books look interesting and I've put several of these novels on my tbr/interest list.

I believe these samplers would be wonderful to offer to book clubs--gives debut authors exposure to readers and opens up possible title choices to dedicated reader. I also appreciated the opportunity to preview My Sister, The Serial Killer, which has made quite a splash in the past year.

I really appreciate having a sampler for debut authors who I likely wouldn't have heard of otherwise. My Sister, The Serial Killer has such an interesting premise and has me on the edge of my seat.

Excellent sampler of everything to come in the fall. It certainly helped me make my pre-list of Fall 2018 books for the newspaper where I work.

I love these sampler books because they let me try new authors who I would not otherwise read. In this sampler, I was most looking forward to My Sister, the Serial Killer by Oyinkan Braithwaite and The Kennedy Debutante by Kerri Mather. I have already read the entire My Sister, the Serial Killer and did not like it as much as I hoped I would from the sample I read, but without the sample I would never have read it all.

This sampler of debut fiction for Fall 2018 was easy to navigate with titles clearly displayed at the beginning. There was a nice mix on here of crime, thriller, women's fiction, and even a historical novel. I added five of the titles to my TBR straight away! Samplers are a great way of widening your reading and there are at least two of the five that sparked my interest I wouldn't have looked at before.

A wonderful selection of books to think about. Difficult to choose which i preferred, but i think the two that appealed most are 'The Kennedy Debutante' and 'Ways to Hide in Winter'.
My thanks to Netgalley and the Publishers for my copy.

I love these samplers! I can read samples and decide to try new authors. It is an easy and enjoyable way to try new authors, especially debut books.

Thanks for the chance to read debut books! I have heard a lot about "My Sister, the Serial Killer: A Novel" by Oyinkan Braithwaite and was especially excited to get to preview it. I enjoyed this sampler!

Great Sampler! I love sneak peeks and knowing what titles and genres are up and coming! This fiction sampler offers a variety of examples and recommendations that any librarian or book lover would appreciate.

I cannot wait until "We Cast a Shadow" and "My Sister, the Serial Killer" comes out!! I am so excited!

Thanks for the preview. There were several books in this that look interesting. Will most certainly be checking them out nearer their publication dates.

Thank you for the opportunity to check out sneak peeks of upcoming fall debuts. There are several books I'm looking forward to reading.

This offering is one of my favorites. It helps with ordering and hand selling. Love it! I am already excited for many of the spring titles!

A look through this title shows that there will be lots of good reading this fall. Nine novels are excerpted in this volume. Here they are:
My Sister, the Serial Killer by Oyinkan Braithwaite
Sight by Jessie Greengrass
The Adults by Caroline Hulse
The Water Cure by Sophie Mackintosh
The Kennedy Debutante by Kerri Maher
Tell Me You're Mine by Elisabeth Noreback
We Cast a Shadow by Maurice Carlos Ruffin
One Day in December by Josie Silver
Ways to Hide in Winter by Sarah St. Vincent
There is an incredible range within these titles; some are dark, some are suspenseful, some have romance and one is based upon a real person. There are mothers and daughters, fathers and sons, men and women; a wide array of fictional choices. It was a pleasure to read the excerpts and now I look forward to reading some of these books. You will too!

I love Penguin Random House samplers! It’s like the appetizer before the amazing main course! I am very much looking forward to reading the books included in this Fall 2018 sampler.
Special thanks to Netgalley and Penguin Random House!
