Always good to see what we have to look forward to, even if it does mean I add more books to my ever-growing TBR pile.

I love such a detailed sampler with chapter teasers and insights on the author and publisher to boot. It's amazing how many books one can look forward to this year.

Thanks Netgalley for the eARC.

Always love this chance to see what's coming. I was unable to activate the links to request galleys on my kindle (it's always worked before) but still enjoyed it. Thanks .

I never know what to say about these much anticipated previews of books. I appreciate the opportunity to see what’s coming and read excerpts.

I know lots of great stuff coming up this summer.

Thank you Netgalley for these Buzz Books

Unfortunately, I was not able to request all of them. <i>(Adulting over here. Trying desperately not to fall down into that TBR hole.)</i> But the little girl in me who loves books could not help but to mark some down for pre-order and library requests.

Buzz Books is always such a brilliant resource for upcoming releases. I love all the wonderful previews and it's great to see what's coming out and when. 2021 looks like it's going to be an amazing year in the book world and now, thanks to this catalogue, I've already added quite a few books onto my TBR!

I loved looking through this collection of works in anticipation of the upcoming months. There were some books that were already on my radar and some that I will be for sure checking out closer to their publication dates.

so many gems in here!! I always look forward to reading through these excerpts and figuring out what books I'd like to request or put on my TBR for the future.

So many great books to look forward to reading. I love Buzz Books and the insight it provides into upcoming titles.

I eagerly awaited this 2021 Buzz Books sampler to be released to plan my summer reading. There are some great books being released this year and I love being able to read a sample of some of them and see what I want to read.

I just love this idea! You get to read exerts from many different books to see if.you will like them. Most of the stories have a request link at the end and I will admit I clicked on many of them. So many good novels coming out! I requested quite a few, wished for one and added some to my TBR pile! The best thing about Book Buzz is that I am exposed to books I normally wouldn't even look at and that expands my comfort zone. I love finding new authors and am usually pleasantly surprised when I request a book from Book Buzz that is outside my normal genre and wind up loving the book!

I always love the Buzz Books guide. I spent the afternoon going through each new upcoming book and read several of the excerpts. There’s a lot of great books coming out!!

A preview of the best of the new books for the season and it's FREE!

Fiction is broken down into categories such as Notables (Kazuo Ishiguro's KLARA AND THE SUN, Jhumpa Lahiri's WHEREABOUTS, and Cynthia D'Aprix Sweeny's GOOD COMPANY); Highly Anticipated (Marie Benedict, Victoria Christopher Murray's THE PERSONAL LIBRARIAN, Joshua Henkin's MORNINGSIDE HEIGHTS, and Imbolo Mbue's HOW BEAUTIFUL WE WERE); Emerging Voices; (Will Dean's THE LAST THING TO BURN, Charles Martin's THE LETTER KEEPER, and Flynn Berry's NORTHERN SPY); a very long list of Debut authors; and Commercial Fiction including Linwood Barclay, David Baldacci, Alafair Burke, Harlan Coben, Jean Hanff Korelitz, and Nora Roberts. A whole range of non-fiction categories are included as well as several Young Adult titles.
There are so many enticing new titles and authors in the Spring/Summer edition, that although I tried to be selective, it remains to be seen whether I was successful. I've requested a number of titles already!

First introduced for the 2012 Book Expo America, the FREE digital Publishers Lunch Buzz Books has become the place for both industry professionals and book lovers in general to discover and read about the books expected to spark high demand BEFORE they are published!

What's really great is that after many selections, you have the option to follow a link and request the complete galley copy from Net Galley if you qualify as a 'professional' reader.

Check out Buzz Books on Amazon. Did I mention it's FREE!

I look forward to every Buzz Books’ edition and this one is a treasure trove, filled with enticing new releases. Ah, my TBR pile is growing!

Thanks to the author, Publishers Lunch BUZZ BOOKS, and NetGalley for the ARC, in exchange for my honest review.

I absolutely LOVE it when these previews come out! There are so many good books coming out soon that I had to take notes and write dates on my calendar so I don't request too many at the same time.

I look forward to seeing this every time it is released. I love reading about books that will be soon released, because it helps me stay informed for our customers. Even if they aren't always books I'd personally read, it's nice to have the information to share with others.

Loved this! Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for the sneak preview of 2021 Spring/Summer Buzz Books.

I always love reading excerpts of all the upcoming books. Thank you Buzz Books and NetGalley! Can’t wait to dive in!

I love looking at these samplers. There are so many new books coming out and I cannot wait to get my hands on them. I am really looking forward to reading these.

This is a nice sampler of upcoming titles,fiction and non-fiction alike. I liked how this was set up.
