Buzz Books 2019 is a list of Adult books that will be released in the Spring and Summer of 2019. There is a separate book for YA titles. The sections break down Fiction books, Debut novels and also Non-Fiction. Beware, this book will be dangerous to your TBR list! You will find a picture of the book cover, a synopsis of the book then a sample of the book to read, and lastly it provides details about the author and release information. Highly recommended for anyone who loves books and wants to be the first to know what they have to look forward to in the upcoming seasons.

I've really enjoyed perusing this, and adding more books to be To Be Read list. I appreciate the opportunity to dive into the books further before either requesting them as ARCs, or just putting them on my Hold list at the library.

I've heard excellent things about the Buzz Books Collection. This is the first time I've viewed one for myself and it definitely lives up to the hype! An outstanding collection of excerpts that will give you a substantial peek at so many upcoming books. I will be requesting the Buzz Books Collection whenever I see one available!

Warning: this collection will not help reduce your TBR stack!! Proceed with caution unless you want to add multiple books to your TBR!

I love looking through the Buzzbook. It is a good way to find books that you wouldn't normally consider reading. It's nice to consider different genres of books. A real help in deciding which books you will definitely read!

I requested this Spring’s Buzz Books in order to facilitate my work with a book festival. But, as a blogger, I may pick these up in the future to help screen my requests.

I really appreciate these books! It helps with ordering and finding titles. I like the excerpts, which helps get a better feel for a book and whether or not I need to order it for my library. I also like the listing of release dates. It helps so much!

Buzz Books is the best compilation of upcoming books for both fiction and nonfiction. It represents a wide variety of publishers. Lots of great titles coming this spring and summer, especially in the nonfiction arena. Buzz Books is also really helpful for identifying overall trends in the book market. For example, there are a lot of strong female voices in this edition.

As a book blogger I love being able to get to read these because not only does it allow me to discover some new and exciting books for myself but I am also able to share them with my readers.

This is a fantastic resource. So many hidden little gems within these books.

This was my first time requesting the Buzz Book 2019. It was very helpful to plan my To Be Read List. Thank you!

Thank you to NetGalley and BuuzzBooks (Publishers Lunch) for providing a digital copy in return for an honest, unbiased review.

Can't wait for Spring Break! Summer beach trips will be great as well. So many exciting books coming out in the next few months that reading will be a priority. So excited to FINALLY see J. Ryan Stradal coming out with his new book. It's going to be a great mid-2019.

I love it when a new Buzz Books issues comes out! Previewing the new books to be published tells me what to request to read on Netgalley and what to look for in the bookstore. I like have lists of all the books coming out and then excerpts of some of the highlight. I have read some of the books already, but I still found quite a few to request from Netgalley. I have some on my shelf ready to be read. It looks like it's going to be a good book season!

Thanks to Publishers Lunch BUZZ BOOKS through Netgalley for a copy. As always, I will look forward to the next issue.

Every time a new issue of Buzz Books 2019: Spring/Summer comes out I read it as soon as possible.
This one was no exception and I found many interesting books that I want to read and I cannot wait for their publication.

These Buzz Books excerpts for upcoming books is great for me as a librarian to have an eye on what's coming up. I use this to help make recommendations and to stay informed. It also helps me choose which books I should request for further review on NetGalley.

One of my most anticipated collections is Buzz Books. I know I'll always find a few books to be interested in reading in this samplers and this one is no exception. I can't wait for some of these books to be published.

What an incredible opportunity to take a first glimpse at so many of the books-to-watch this year. If you’ve ever wondered how so many people have heard about a new book before it’s even released, this is how!

There are a lot of familiar names included in this collection, but quite a few new voices as well.

Some highlights for me include:

Bunny (Mona Awad), which brings to mind Donna Tartt’s modern classic The Secret History and a personal favorite of mine by Marisha Pessl, Special Topics in Calamity Physics.

Doxology (Nell Zink), with a premise primed to spark insight into our modern world, the characters jump off the page immediately and I’m excited to follow them around for a bit.

In At The Deep End (Kate Davies), where the narrator is so raw and open that it almost feels like a memoir instead of a character in a Bridget Jones-esque novel, this new voice is certainly promising.

Maybe You Should Talk To Someone (Lori Gottlieb), a memoir that opens with candor and humor, Lori (we’re on a first name basis already) is a therapist in need of therapy. Can’t wait to read this in one sitting!

Some themes I see – lots of thrillers, lots of narrators unlucky in life and love, quite a few stories set in Chicago! This is a great chance to get a pulse on what’s to come this year.

What a great idea! Especially for those of us involved with book groups. I must admit that I haven't had the time to read every excerpt and probably never will but it's a great book to have on hand and one which I would consider buying in a physically printed version as a reference point. Thank you for making such a volume.

Many thanks to NetGalley and Publishers Lunch for providing an ARC in exchange for an honest review. My opinions are 100% my own and independent of receiving an advanced copy

I’m not sure whether to kick myself because I was so lucky the day I decided to check out Buzz Books or really kick myself because the last thing I need is more books on my “To Read” shelf. This spring’s edition is no different. There are almost 50 upcoming books that are in this edition and they are spectacular. If you are not familiar with Buzz Books they review a selection of books that are going to be released for that season. They are from a variety of publishers and have a selection of different genres. Because the YA genre is so popular they have their own edition. For each book there is a description, information for the book like publishing date, price, etc. and an excerpt. These are not just a couple of wispy pages of a teaser of an excerpt. No, no, no. They include quite a substantial excerpt, enough that you can really get a feel for the text, the voice of the author and whether or not it is your type of book. The problem, if you are someone like me, I get so hooked I want to read the whole book right away!!!

They have sifted through the thousands of titles being published and select those that they think are noteworthy or remarkable in some way.The list is broken down into Fiction with subsections of The Notables, Highly Anticipated, Emerging Voices, Debut, and Commercial Fiction. The Nonfiction section include Politics and Current Events, Social Issues, Science and Technology, History and Crime, Essays and Criticism, and Biography and Memoir. Those they have provided an excerpt are marked with an asterisk. There are popular authors with highly anticipated releases like Cecelia Ahern, T.C. Boyle, Nell Zink and Liv Constantine to name just a few. You can discover new authors in the debut section. I was familiar with many of these releases like “Little Darlings” by Melanie Golding and “Naamah” by Sara Blake.

Of course the best is that at the end of each excerpt there is link to NetGalley where you can request an ARC of the book. Seriously, this doesn’t help me in my quest for trying to reduce the number of request I make, but I just can’t help it. I’m too excited about the prospect of reading that next great book. There are some really gems that are just waiting to be discovered.

As a new book reviewer, I really appreciate NetGalley publishing such a wonderful guide to 2019 releases. The excerpts are great at giving you an idea of what to add to that never-ending to be read list! Can't wait for these to release!
