This is an amazing guide to the books that I want to read in the later months of 2025! It took me awhile to get through all the fabulous synopses of the books coming out in the fall/winter of 2025. There are so many books that I added to my TBR list and I am looking forward to reading them all!

This is such a great resource. I love the categories and how in depth they are. I can see myself going back to it again and again before deciding on my next read. Thank you, NetGalley!

Always loves these Buzz Books! As a bookseller there are so many titles releasing season so this is a great resource to get a great snapshot of the releases to come.

I am not sure whether this is to be reviewed or not, but I will review it, just in case! I found this to be an interesting anthology and two tempt me to want to read several of the books that are included there in. I like the idea of being able to try out the books, but then I ended up with quite a few books on my to be read page and only have so much time! I’m glad I did it because I always wondered what this was about, but I probably won’t be doing it again, unless I run out of books to review. That’s unlikely to happen because there are always so many good books out there! Thank you to NetGalley.

I love everything about these preview editions! I begin reading with a pen and paper in hand to write down the titles of books I MUST read. I find new authors all of the time this way. My TBR is already too long but what's another few...haha.

This was a super useful guide to seeing books coming out this fall/winter! I found some I hadn't heard about that sound perfect for me, and having a sneak peek at some I'm super excited for when they release. Thank you for the opportunity to help curate my TBR and reading, and to add plenty new books to my radar!

Wow.
This is the first time I've ever read one of these buzz books and im so excited to read more. Reading through this has made me want to read books that I necessarily wouldn't have maybe picked up but im looking forward to when some of these books come out

This is super helpful as I put together my columns for Fall/Winter! I love this feature and look forward to downloading again in the Spring/Summer.

Thanks for making another of these compilations available. These collections give me a good idea of the books that may be popular with library patrons, and the excerpts help me determine who they might appeal to.

This is my first time downloading this resource, but it won't be my last. Such a great preview of upcoming releases, from authors new and familiar to me. Thanks for providing it to NetGalley users!

Loved this round of previews! I've bookmarked several titles for preview or review. Thanks for putting together another great volume!

As usual, this is a good source to find out about upcoming books. I keep hoping that they will eventually include brief descriptions of the books. Even a couple of sentences would help. Descriptions are provided only for the few books that are excerpted.

This is such a fun way to get a peek at upcoming releases! Lots of familiar authors, but also a lot of new-to-me names.
This was broken into 4 parts, so I’m going to try to touch on each of the four:
Fiction:
The author that was most familiar on the list is Olivie Blake. I think she’s well known, and loved, enough that I don’t need to go into detail, but I will say, her new book, Girl Dinner, looks amazing.
Other than Blake, I think the book I’m most excited for is Women of a Promiscuous Nature by Donna Everhart. I’m currently deeply in my angry feminist era, and this seems perfect for just that.
Debut:
The Vanishing Place by Zoe Rankin looks so fast paced and fun. I’m certain it’s the sort of book I could fly through in a weekend.
Non-Fiction:
This one feels unfair, but I’m definitely most excited for the Last Extinction by Gerta Keller. Because Dinosaurs. Yes. That’s really the reason I’m excited.
YA:
Omg. Seven for a Secret by Mary E Roach had me captivated from the first sentence. I can’t wait to get my hands on a copy.

Love being able to see some sneak peeks into books coming this fall/winter as they're added to my TBR list! Thank you!

Stumbled upon this great resource and while it's a bit overwhelming at first glance, I am grateful to have it in my "pocket" when considering a book to request. This is a wonderful place to find new to you authors. The only downside is that it is making my TBR list grow by leaps and bounds

These "Buzz Books" are such a fabulous resource! They are such a significant help in exploring new books for classes and alerting students to books they may want to read.

I gather Publishers Lunch publishes these twice a year, with a list of upcoming new book titles and a summary and, for some of them, a short excerpt. I was surprised by how many titles there were but kind of bummed by how few of them were of interest to me. But WOW what a great resource for those looking for a new pile of books to read!

Another terrific resource with excerpts from Fall/Winter 2025 books, many you will want to add to your TBR list. Enjoy!

I love getting these sneak peaks into upcoming releases. This gives me an idea of what to look out for and I always find some books to add to my tbr. I love all of the details that it provides, specifically the synopsis of the authors. I like learning more about authors and sometimes it's difficult to get that information but this provides information on both the book and the author of it. I do wish that it had information on the genre of each book but overall this is a good resource to check out.

A very interesting collection. I'll definitely keep an eye out for several of the books in this list.
