This is a fun, great way to preview upcoming books - a short piece or so of each anticipated book is shared. My first Young Adult Buzz Books as I generally am not a big fan of YA. But in the last year, I’ve read a couple that have been really good, so decided to check out this compilation. A nice variety and two that sound interesting are The Last Two Poets of the Sea by Julia Drake and Harvey Comes Home by Colleen Nelson. I appreciated the opportunity to sample. Thanks NetGalley and all the publishers for providing a much-anticipated window into Young Adult books coming this fall/winter 2019.

This was a great way to learn which young adult titles to look out for in the upcoming months!  I was able to create my own list of books to track down for myself and my library, including a whole bunch of titles that I know wouldn't have been on my radar otherwise.

I really look forward to Buzz Book's previews twice a year but unfortunately this selection did nothing for me. The only one I'm looking forward to from this bunch is "Dear Haiti, Love Alaine".

This was a great reference to find all of the upcoming Fall/Winter YA releases of 2019-2020.  I was able to add so many awesome new titles to my TBR as well as rule out some others based on finding out more information.

I hope to see many more of these books for future seasons to help me keep my TBR long!

Buzz Books 2019 is a great way to read samples of YA books and request using the attached link if you decide you want to read the entire book.  Very helpful.

Helpful and nice. I think I will start reading those for my next new releases hunt. 
I had a good time discovering new releases I didn't know about and it was quick to read.
Coral by Sara Ella actually picked my interest and, well, we'll see if I'm going to read it or not.

I love this concept. Reading excerpts from anticipated books and then deciding if you're interested in reading the whole thing.
This book was much shorter than I anticipated and am definitely excited to ready some of the books included. 

I love, love, love, Buzz Books

What a nice way of being able to taste from some, very different, YA books! I love this and I will keep on loving it. The only bad thing is probably that the exerts of the books that you really like, are never long enough. This is a good way of already selecting some books you really want to read and also, some you don't need to read.

I always love having access to these previews of upcoming books. I'm most excited for The Last True Poets of the Sea by Julia Drake. I also love having a list at the beginning that has titles/authors/publish dates at the beginning for upcoming new releases. It's a great reference!

Did not review in the traditional sense. First reactions to each book is posted on my blog. I review cover, premise, and the excerpt and list whether or not I will be adding it to my TBR.

I love it when the Buzz Books become available! This is such a great way to get a taste of the great reads that are coming out soon. I always end up with a longer "to read" list after sampling the titles in Buzz Books.

Interesting upcoming books! I am partial to reading the one about the mermaid, in hopes that it delivers.

Unfortunately, this edition didn't contain anything that really caught my attention. A pity really, as there is usually a good selection of excerpts.

An interesting collection of Young Adult books coming out this Fall and Winter.  There's lots of variety for every taste.  I love the excerpts which always help me decide which books I really want to read - always wishing I had time to read all of them!  The bibloiography in the front is really helpful too when perusing what will be available from my favorite authors and new authors to me.

Thanks to Publishers Lunch BUZZ BOOKS through Netgalley for another fine compilation!

Another season, another Buzz Books. Unfortunately, nothing in this edition wowed me or really stood out. There was a lot of realistic fiction included in this edition, which unfortunately, just isn't my thing.

Such a treat to get this pre-publishing taste of a variety of young adult offerings! Highly recommended!

Great collection of new releases! I always enjoy looking through these, and have added quite some titles to my TBR.

I cannot wait to dive into these books.  All the books I can read are in one convenient place.  While they are all YA, they fall into smaller sub-categories to appeal to a variety of audiences. I really loved the samples of the books that are included.

This book was very short compared to past volumes. There were only 4 or 5 excerpts and of those, some didn't have a link to NetGalley at all.
