Hard to review a buzz book but it does what it says on the tin. It you want samples of new books in the YA category, this is the place to go. |

Very informative read of the novels that came out in 2016. This serves as a go to guide of what to read so you don't miss out. |
The seasonal Buzz Books are always incredibly helpful to me as a reader. It's a great overview of upcoming titles, and I always appreciate the blend of familiar names and debut authors. The excerpts are also a nice size, and allow you to get a good taste of the author's writing, hooking you just enough to leave you wanting more. |
An exciting and valuable look at the books publishers were excited about in 2016. I always enjoy seeing these offered and find them useful in finding out which books will be pushed by publishers and will garner attention from readers. |
This is a great sampler. I appreciate the preview. Thank you to netgalley and the publisher for the advanced copy. |
Wonderful! Great chance to try out some new stories and find new authors. These books full of excerpts are one of the best things about NetGalley! |

Sorry, I didn't get to this one before it was majorly obsolete. Sounded like it would be a fun sampler. Life happens. Books get archived. |
This was a great sampler. I loved the Lauren Oliver, Stephanie Garber, and Katharine McGee excerpts. It seems fall/winter time is always a great time for exciting books to be released. |
After reading these samplers I can't wait to read a number of these titles. Will definitely be picking some of them up in the future! A great way to try a lot of different books very easily. |
Always great to see what is coming up. Great preview of forthcoming titles that helps me in my role as a school librarian. |
This was an absolutely awesome collection of Ya fiction. I truly enjoyed the stories in this collection and it left me wanting more YA story amazingness. |
I really appreciated the peek at these, and followed up on three of them! Thanks for putting this preview together! |
I would like to thank netgalley and Publishers Lunch for a free copy of the book in exchange for an honest review. I'm just not interested in short excerpts of books. |
This had a good selection of very hyped upcoming releases. Theses little snapshots of the stories and what they are about is a great way to discover if these are going to be something to pick up. |
I love reading the Buzz Books to see which books are coming out in the upcoming seasons. I like getting to read a section from the books soon to be published in the Fall/Winter and deciding whether or not I actually want to purchase them or not. In general I find the Buzz Books very useful. |
Books that stood out to me were: The Forgetting by Sharon Cameron Girl in Pieces by Kathleen Glasgow The Female of the Species by Mindy McGinnis. |
I love these samplers and how great they are for readers looking for new authors and some good underrated books. I didn't find anything that I wanted to continue reading but I love the idea of these and will continue to request. |
This books was an excellent resource for myself as I considered books to purchase for the 2016 school year. I added many of these to my library's bookshelf during that time. |
So many of these books sound so promising! I picked up one of them once it was published because I loved the little snippet that I got from this. Can't wait to see the new books that come out this season! |
So many great excerpts of books that I now want to read. Including a few books that I hadn't heard of before. Buzz Books are one of my favorite ways to find new books. |
