Thank you for this preview of upcoming titles. I am especially excited to read Horse by Geraldine Brooks.

Love getting sneak peeks of books to add to my to read list! It opens my eyes to books I have not heard of, and new to me authors.

This was helpful for making future choices for books to purchase for my library, but I was hoping for more YA and children's books in the compendium. I think that is on me though, for not checking what it contained more thoroughly before requesting it.

I came for the YA section and got sucked in to so many other excerpts. My TBR blew up again!

Especially looking forward to getting Ballad & Dagger into some kids' hands!

I look forward to Buzz Books every season. A big thank you to NetGalley for providing me with a free copy to review. This wonderful catalog of upcoming and new books is jam packed full of bookish goodness and always gives me many books to add to my already overflowing To-Be-Read list This book catalogs new books coming out in the Spring and Summer of 2022. It includes a brief summary of the book, followed by a sample chapter of each book, which is a fantastic way to get an insight of new author's writing styles as well as a teaser into how a book will be laid out. The sample is then followed by information on the book's release, publisher, and author. I really love that it includes fiction, debut authors, YA and Non-fiction. This catalog is very well put together and a treat for any booklover, reader, bookstore owner or anyone else interested in new and upcoming books.

Thanks for another preview! I wish we could preview a chapter or two of all NetGalley books. I felt like this edition didn't have many big name authors but I did find one that I started and requested the full galley so I can finish!

Can't wait for some of these! I'm especially excited for "Horse" by Geraldine Brooks... hoping some of these will be available on netgalley.

I always look forward to these books that will bring me so many outstanding authors excerpts of their books. I have read some from authors Jane Green, Emma Straub, and Adriana Triginia - so good! So many thanks to Net Galley for these Buzz Books selections!! I am an avid reader and just love digging into so many intriguing titles.

This sampler from Buzz Books 2022 Spring/Summer of soon to be released books is fantastic. I was so excited to read an excerpt from Sloane Crosley’s “Cult Classic. I have expanded my TBR list as well. Thanks to NetGalley and Publishers Lunch BUZZ Books for the arc/download.

So helpful to get a sneak peek of upcoming books this way! I don’t think I would have discovered Violet Made of Thorns otherwise, and I was thrilled to read an excerpt of Geraldine Brooks’ next novel — we’ve been waiting years!

This was so fun! I loved getting a little bit of insider insight to what's coming! It was great to see little snippets of books I'm excited for!

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; a very long list of Debut authors; and Commercial Fiction. 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 always like these Buzz Book samplers. Their design of a book's summary as well as an excerpt is very helpful when leanring about new books. I do like them better when they are divided into genres as I don't purchase books for all areas of my library.

So many great books to look forward to! I've preordered All My Rage by Sabaa Tahir. I will also be checking out Horse by Geraldine Brooks and The Seamstress of New Orleans by Diane McPhail.

I always enjoy reading these snippets as there are so many interesting titles coming up! Off to make lists of upcoming releases!!

I would like to thank the publisher and netgalley for providing me a free copy in exchange for an honest review.

I have a ambivalent attitude to the Buzz Books, on the one hand it is a marvellous treat to have such a wide ranging spectrum of upcoming books coming up, the samples are a temptation that have me wanting to read far too many books covered, a source of frustration. However, Buzz books is required reading for me, I just have to know what is coming up, and getting a good idea of what I will be wanting to read. There are so many I want to read from this addition of Buzz books. Many thanks for providing such a valuable service for readers.

I truly appreciate this collection of upcoming book releases. It’s so nice to be able to read an excerpt and a description. There are so many of these books I’d like to now read, many of which I likely never would have known about if I hadn’t read this. Awesome!
