Sampler of very good books - I am very much looking forward to Coral as I enjoy all the fairy tales reimagined. I love that we are able to get advanced excerpts of upcoming books and can't wait to read many of them in the future.

this was super useful for deciding which new releases I am interested on, and it made me aware of some new ones I hadn't heard of before. My favourites were The last true poets of the sea and Scars like wings

This is such a great way to preview new books and to help create purchasing lists for my high school library. Not only does it provide an excerpt, but it also helps keep these great new titles on my radar so I don't miss anything.

I usually find a lot of great "hidden gems" in the Buzz Books collections. This collection fell a little flat for me. I found myself getting less and less excited as I read the excerpts. I truly believe every book has its reader but some were just very odd (looking at you Kobe Bryant's book about tennis and magic!), had been done before and what I felt was better, or left me wondering who the intended audience was.
What I did love was the excerpt of "I'm not dying with you tonight" (a new twist on a popular storyline), "Dear Haiti, Love Alaine" (you can't beat that narrator's tone!), and "Scars like wings" (again, great narrator!).

I found some books that I caught my eyes.

Thank you Netgalley for providing me with the digital copy for an honest review.

I always like at least seeing what Buzz Books is predicting or saying abt upcoming books and seeing what I’ve not seen or a new review on something I’ve read as well.

I'm really happy to have the opportunity to read excerpts of upcoming books, especially about YA. I see that there is a great number of new interesting voices in the literary scene.

Ainda tô tentando entender por que eu pedi isto para ler. É só um catálogo com livros que não me despertaram nenhum interesse.

As always, the Buzz Books Young Adult compilation is a must. I look forward to reading it each time it’s released. I love being able to read then request new books in the compilation. It helps me figure out which ones I want to read and which ones I should avoid without wasting my time. I’ve already requested a couple of books and look forward to reading them.

I love these! They are so helpful. I added a ton of books to my tbr!

All of the books look really interesting and I can't wait to read them when they come out this fall.

Once again, this is such a valuable resource for not only bloggers but book lovers in general. I truly enjoy reading not one about which books are coming out, but some excerpts as well. I can't wait for some of these titles!

Fun preview of the books to look out for in the Fall 2019 publishing season! So many amazing titles to check out! I don't know how my TBR pile is going to survive...

It's always fun to read samples of new books and in this one, there were multiple interesting YA books.

I always love downloading these sneak peeks because they introduce me to new books or intrigue me more about books I'd previously heard about! I'm particularly interested in The Last True Poets of the Sea, and reading the sample in this sampler made me even more excited about the book.

Really excited for the Last True Poets of the Sea, and Dear Haiti, Love Alaine. I was a little disappointed there weren’t more titles in there as I always love reading these extracts and seeing what’s coming up.

Thanks to. Netgalley for this preview. There are some good titles in here that really sparked my interest. I think I requested 3 of them and am hoping I get approved to check them out. I, always looking for more high interest titles to recommend to my students.

A great resource for getting young people into reading - particularly those who are “stuck” or struggling to transition to the next stage of their reading journey. A very good reading list.
