DANGER! Your TBR list will grow immensely after you read the previews in this title. I could barely contain my excitement about a preview for J. Ryan Stradal's newest title, and then added practically everything else included in this roundup to my to-read list. I look forward to reading more about Valerie Jarrett's time in the Obama White House, as well as the upcoming Lauren Denton!

Thank you once again for making BUZZ BOOKS available via NetGalley. I really enjoy these summaries of forthcoming books and recommend them to readers who may not be familiar with this service. They offer an opportunity to quickly see which favorite authors have forthcoming books as well as a chance to learn about some debut titles. Both fiction and non-fiction (new books about Yogi Berra, Barbara Bush, and Sandra Day O’Connor, for example) are included. The Spring/Summer 2019 version contains excerpts from 44 talked about Buzz Books such as THE LAGER QUEEN OF MINNESOTA by J. Ryan Stradal and I am particularly looking forward to reading more of Valerie Jarrett’s memoir called FINDING MY VOICE.

Buzz books is a very useful tool that enables me to sample books, so I have a head start in deciding what to order for the library.

I have seen, read an excerpt and requested a non fiction book to read. This Buzz Books certainly gives a great ide on what is coming up soon.
I'm looking forward to reading Maybe You Should Talk to Someone by Lori Gottlieb, a book I may not have discovered without this Buzz Books collection

Great selection of previews in this season’s catalog! I found a few that I knew I wanted to read and a few that I thought I didn’t want to read until I started reading the preview! Thanks for adding some interesting selections to my TBR yet again!

I always look forward to this list because it gives you amazing recommendations at a glance. It also gets you excited about the new and upcoming anticipated reads. With this list, I can plug in the dates into my planner, so I don't miss release dates.

As always, Buzz Books is chock-a-block full of fantastic reads from valued veterans, newbie debuts, and writers who for one reason or another haven't quite been on my radar. So many gems included in this collection, including a favorite writer of mine, T.C. Boyle.

Wonderfully helpful, as usual, in providing a sense of upcoming publications worthy of ‘buzz.’ There’s a new organization and look to this edition and it is quite nice. Regardless of how closely I track publishers information, Buzz Books really provide the inside track. I remain a huge fan.

I have many ways to find new books, but Buzz Books is the BEST of them all. When a new publication comes out, I always put everything on hold to devour them.

The 2019 Spring/Summer Preview makes me so excited for this year'. There are many books that I want to read, but I'm especially excited for The Escape Room by Megan Goldin, Carnegie Hill by Jonathan Vatner, The Better Sister by Alafair Burke, The Favorite Daughter by Kaira Rouda, and The Night Before by Wendy Walker. The excerpts are wonderful, and the summaries give a good context for what I am about to read. I just finished the excerpt for How Not To Die Alone by Richard Roper and it's now on my TBR.

Thank you Publishers Lunch for kicking off 2019 with this fabulous edition!
