An awesome way to read other authors who you haven't heard of yet. Thanks for the compilation! My favorite was the Roommate story. |
II love these Buzz Books excerpts. This is the best way to promote new books. I really enjoy reading them. |
I know why I love these Buzz Books and this one on Romance did not disappoint. It just grabbed me into it from the very first book - Romantically Challenged...funny, poignant, and every girl's dreams gone awry. Have to get the whole story soon... then The Ballad - all really nice selections I want to read! Thanks Buzz Books! |
I appreciate the annual Buzz Books and the sneak peek I get into upcoming romance releases. It's very helpful for collection development. |

I received a free digital copy in exchange for an honest review. This is a wonderful collection of various romance novels from contemporary romance to historical romance that appeals to many readers. Some readers prefer historical romances. Some readers prefer contemporary romances. Wonderful introduction to new romances that I may want to read. |
Cool booklet nice thing that i read this got to know soo many stories and actually read some which i liked or just wished it in netgalley. |
I love when NetGalley offers these anthologies! It's perfect for me to be able to see what I may want to add to my TBR list for the upcoming season. I whipped through this one particularly fast. There were about 14 samples stories and each one is usually the first 2 chapters. It's just enough to get you hooked if the writing is good. I ended up requesting a full galley of 6 different books so fingers crossed. I was super excited to see some of my favorite authors liked Marina Adair, Brenda Jackson, and Susan Andersen included. The subgenres of romance in this book covers everything from Contemporary, LGBTQ, and Historical. I was also very impressed with diversity of the characters in the books as well as the writers. |

Always so happy to have these samplers - great way to get a taste of what's coming , and I enjoyed that this one was romance themed. I tend to only pick up contemporary romance (the Christina Lauren/Jasmine Guillory type with illustrated covers), so this encouraged me to stretch a bit. |
This is my first time reading the Romance edit of Buzz Books and I'm so glad I finally did! I've got so many exciting reads lined up thanks to these excerpts. I especially love finding debut authors this way, and appreciate the diverse selection included here. Please never stop making these guides! |
These Buzz Books are so helpful in choosing new books! I've come across several winners after reading these previews that I may not have chosen simply based on the book description. Thank you! |
This is so informative. It has been incredibly helpful to have upcoming releases at my fingertips. Thank you for compiling it! |
Thank you Publishers Lunch @Netgalley for the catalogue. I found a lot of interesting books that I requested and look forward to reviewing them! |
They hype is real! I felt like the included books were straight out of my TBR list. Reading excerpts of some of the novels already on my TBR list made me want to read the rest. I'm especially looking forward to: The Roommate by Rosie Danan, The Cul-de-Sac War by Melissa Ferguson, How to Fail at Flirting by Denise Williams and Then There Was You by Mona Shroff. Books already out that I will finish: Scandalous Secrets by Synthia Williams and A Duke, a Lady and a Baby by Vanessa Riley. |
This is a sampler and provides a compelling selection of what's coming up in Romance. Thanks for providing this sampler. |
i really liked reading some sneak peeks of these books that will be coming out soon. but i don't think i'll be picking any of them up. none of them sparked my interest hard enough. so that's the tea. |
I always love this preview of what to look for in the year! Amazing tool. I hope it keeps coming! It is my opinion that every reviewer should read this before each year to give a more in depth look at what is coming up. |

SO many incredible titles included, and I’m especially excited to have gotten to read a few of the Romance titles I’m most excited about reading this year!
