Thank you for giving me this sneak peek of upcoming books! I added an overwhelming number to my TBR—so many books I hadn't yet heard of. |
It is always a joy to read shorts or exerpts so I was excited to review the latest Buzz Books installment. The short synopsis of each book was very helpful to set the scene for each book. My disappointment was in that most exerpts where the first chapter of every book but which isn't always the best chapter to read get a reader connected to the story. Some of the chapters were enthralling and I was left with the desire to buy/borrow and read that whole book! Some I could not read fast enough just to get through them, with those first few chapters testing my patience (how they were written, not their topic) - I am not a believer in stopping what I am reading. I alway persevere even if it is not my cup of tea. And that is the beauty of an excerpt: it tests what you like and surprises you when you like something you didn't think you would. Some of my highlights include 'The Burning', 'Hollywood Park: a memoir', 'The Socialite', and 'Sand Talk'. |
Great samples! I found some new titles I will definitely be looking into and some ill be passing on. These are wonderful collections. |
I always love these catelogues to find new authors and new to me titles for review! Thanks again Buzz Books, great selections! |

I love these books. I look forward to reading them every season. I would like to see more diversity. However, it's still a good resource for adding books to my To Read list. |

A new "Buzz Books" is always a joy! It feels like a real treat to read excerpts from so many new books, always with the anticipation that one may be your new all time favourite |

Really excited to read so many of these books this year. This will be a great year for books. I only hope I can read as many of these as possible this year. |
A delightful preview of so many wonderful books that are coming soon! I really enjoy reading excerpts of the books and can't wait to read the full book. It is almost overwhelming how many great books are coming but knowing how much and how quickly I can read makes it makes it more exciting than overwhelming! Thank you to Netgalley for the opportunity to check out what is coming next! |
Solid 5 stars. Fantastic resource. It’s nice to be able to check out the covers of these upcoming books, and read the samples. It is easier to share why I am excited about these new books with my friends/followers. I’m excited about quite a few of these titles, and can’t wait to share them! |
Great read, loved how informative it was. Found a lot of new and interesting want reads. Buzz Books contains all the new releases in the first half of 2020 and is a very helpful instrument for bloggers and reader et al. |
I love the excerpts! There are a number of good reading choices coming out this Spring and Summer. Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for providing this informative compilation. |

Thanks to NetGalley for this Buzz Books preview of spring/summer 2020 releases. I appreciate knowing exactly what to add to my TBR! |
An amazing collection of upcoming releases for the Spring/Summer of 2020! The previews for each book are definitely helpful and peaked my interest in a bunch of releases. I am definitely adding a lot of these books onto my TBR. |
These are always my favorite, just because I get to see so many more books that are coming out. It’s so hard to find new books, because there are so many that come out and I usually stick to YA. I’m hoping to get more into new adult this year and find some new gems. |

I found eight excerpts I really enjoyed. I have requested two of them. I added the others to my wish list. I am the most excited about The Orphan Collector by Ellen Marie Wiseman. |
My thanks to the author, publisher and NetGalley for a free ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review. Thanks, this is a great resource! |
I always look forward to the latest issue of Buzz Books and this one is no exception. So many great books coming out this spring / summer! |
This has been my first opportunity to view Buzz Books, and reading the excerpts for 2020: Spring/Summer has been exciting and worthwhile. I have already received approval for one of my requests, and hope to hear back from more soon! What a great way to plan my book reading throughout this new year. Thanks #NetGalley and #Publishers. You've introduced me to many new authours and I look forward to their releases. |
