I love love love reading these Buzz Book editions. There are so many exciting books coming out this year and this really helps me to narrow down what I want to read, request, and get excited for!

I really appreciate that this includes a full list of books, broken down by genre. It then goes into highlighting each book independently and includes an excerpt, synopsis, and publisher information as well. Once again this really helps me to organize my thoughts with the upcoming season of book releases.

Great collection of releases for later this year. Gave me lots to look forward to and introduced me some books I wouldn't normally read.

I found a few books to add to my TBR pile.... not as many as I would've liked. Hopefully there are more great reads coming out next Fall/Winter.

There are so many books here that I can't wait to read later in the year. I'm particularly excited for Anne-Helen Petersen's Can't Even which I've had pre-ordered for months, but there are also loads of books mentioned here I hadn't heard of which I now can't wait to read.

It's so exciting to get a sneak peek of what we have to look forward to - I just need to be patient!

Buzz Books 2020 Fall/Winter
By Publishers Lunch

Great book featuring some amazing up and coming releases. I was like a kid in a sweet shop after reading the first chapters of some of the books. I ,just hope I am luck enough to be able to read some of them now after requesting. Really great idea to put a few books together to showcase talented authors.

This is a very good read to discover more titles! I really enjoyed this, and will be requesting more books now, even though I have millions of books to read before hand. But oh well. That's what's this book is for.

Thanks. NetGalley is like a candy store and Buzz Books helps me decide what to read. Like candy, there is too much from which to choose.

I am pleasantly surprised by the content in this book. The lists and excerpts make it easy to find new authors and jump directly to categories of interest. This will definitely be my go-to resource for narrowing down my TBR this fall/winter. Thank you NetGalley for the digital copy.

LOVE THIS! Since BookCon is canceled, I will use this almost exclusively to find upcoming book club suggestions.

This is my first time reading one of the Buzz Books, and I am pretty much hooked. The Fall/Winter 2020 Publishing Preview provided an expanded list of books coming out, categorized as The Notables, Highly Anticipated, Emerging Voices, Debut, Commercial Fiction, and Nonfiction including Political & Current Events, Social Issues, Science & Technology, History & Crime, Essay, Criticism & More, and Biography & Memoir. Although there was very little information provided for these upcoming titles - basically author, title, publisher and publication date - going through the list definitely got me excited about new books coming out!

The Buzz Books Fall/Winter 2020 collection includes excerpts from books in a number of categories including Fiction (15), Debut (9), Nonfiction (3), and Young Adult (3) Most of the book profiles include a short summary, followed by an excerpt - usually a chapter or two, and concluding with an about the author section and contact information.

I found a number of books I'm interesting in reading and reviewing among the Fall/Winter 2020 offerings. The nice thing is, I can usually tell if I will enjoy the book within the first few chapters, so this format was perfect for me. I was able to get a bit of the story while also familiarizing myself with the voice and the writer's take on storytelling, characterization and plotting.

I'll be adding Buzz Books to my list of resources for locating new books to read and review. It's a valuable tool, and one that offers me the chance to learn more about a wide range of books coming out.
