Love being able to see what titles are coming out in spring and summer. It gets me excited for all the good reading ahead!

I love this concept and thought it was done really well. I would have loved if the "Fiction Preview" section was categorized by sub-genre. Since I am a selector for only certain genres, it would have been nice to go over the list for those specific ones instead of looking through the whole list and looking up each book individually.

I really enjoyed being able to read a segment of the different books though! Thank you for publishing a book list like this.

The Buzz Books Series had become my go-to as I curate my TBR for the upcoming season! I feature POSITIVE reviews on my Instagram platform so I am very careful in my reading choices, and focus on what I can genuinely recommend for my audience. This resource has become instrumental in my research as to what might appeal to me and subsequently my followers.

Many thanks for continuing to publish this incredibly informative communication.

I absolutely love these previews for the upcoming seasons. Always jam packed with amazing books to get your excited to request!!

Quite a compendium of excerpts from 49 upcoming books — divided into fiction (the largest section), debut, non-fiction, and young adult. This ebook is exceptionally large (almost 10 times the size of a normal book), but it’s a great reference for Netgalley users. I was most interested in a few of the novels that I was declined for (V.E. Schwab, Louis Sachar) — this will aid me in deciding whether I should purchase a copy upon publication, make a reservation for it at the library, or just move on. All in all, a great way to assist me as I navigate the new books of 2025. 5 stars!

Thank you to Publishers Lunch and NetGalley!

I look forward to this every season. It is a wonderful breakdown of upcoming books and a sneak peek into some of the more intriguing ones.
I think everyone appreciates the details given within Book Buzzes pages. We are given the author, title, publisher and also the very important date of publication. I put everything aside as soon as this comes out to see which books NetGalley is going to give us a look inside of. It is through Book Buzz I am able to learn of debut authors. It is a rich source of information.
My only complaint is that I wish the sample books were numbered, like chapters, so I could search through them more easily. I have a type I look for and have to mark the location of each book so I can slide back and forth between them. I’m sure this could be more user friendly.
This is still worth 5+ stars and I appreciate it every time it comes out. A big thank you to Net Galley and all the publishers!

Once again, a wonderful edition of Buzz Books. I look forward to every edition, and none has ever disappointed. I love to see what books are scheduled to be published in the next few months and to read excerpts from a few of them -- but my TBR list just keeps getting bigger and bigger after each edition of Buzz Books comes out!

Loved getting a little preview of a variety of books! Got to read a book or two that I had heard of and plenty others I never have and finding some gems to revisit in the future.

This collection features a whopping 49 excerpts alongside a list of other upcoming titles that might interest readers. The format for this is an excellent way to inform yourself on books being published soon. It feels like a little sneak peek behind publishers' curtains.

Not every title will be for every reader, but that is why it's so amazing to be able to read a few chapters of all these titles. To get a feel for the writing style and the story. While some of the featured titles were not to my personal taste, I was able to discover a lot of books I probably wouldn't have known about otherwise, thanks to this collection. I was able to add a lot of titles to my neverending TBR. It also features wonderful integration with the NetGalley website, so you can immediately request titles that catch your interest.

This Buzz Books collection is a wonderful way for any reader to familiarize themselves with new, upcoming titles and plan their TBR for the next seasons.

Thank you Publishers Lunch and all featured authors for providing this book for review consideration via NetGalley. All opinions are my own.

An invaluable resource!

This edition of Buzz Books has:
- A list of titltes and authors, with their imprint and pub. date
- 49 excerpts of hot new books, divided into fiction, debut, nonfiction, young adult

Defiantly interesting and nice to try and whet appetites for the upcoming books, but it felt like a massive teaser to me. I ignored some and just glanced through most. I didn't want to get hooked on something I couldn't continue.

Thanks for this. There are so many on this list that I am looking forward to. I appreciate NetGalley for putting this together.

This is such a great way to discover the new releases of this year!! I’m especially excited for V.E. Schwab’s new book this year!

I really liked seeing the previews for many of the new and upcoming popular books to be released this year.

Great selection, as usual! The books I discovered and look forward placing on my lap:

1. The Paris Express
2. Gothictown
3. Bury Our Bones in the Midnight Soil
4. The Names
5. House of Monstrous Women

The Buzz Book editions are a great way to sample the upcoming titles. Thanks for another great one Publishers Lunch. I am looking forward to reading and purchasing some of these hot titles.

It's really convenient to have such a tool where you can get a taste of the book and then just click on the link to the request.
There are a lot of novels to look out for in 2025; I'm afraid it is bad news for those who want to see their TBR getting smaller !

Thank you to NetGalley and Buzz Books Publisher’s Lunch. This was a great preview of upcoming books. Looking forward to their publication

This is a wonderful collection of book previews. I especially appreciate the Debut Authors section. There are some important new voices here, as well as some old favorites. An impressive array of genres.

I always look forward to these editions with all the upcoming books and summaries. It really helps me find the best new books to review.
Thank you to NetGalley and Publishers Lunch BUZZ BOOKS.
