Once again, Buzz Books brings me one step closer to toppling my TBR mountain. Every time I think I have a handle on what's coming up next, Buzz Books comes out and highlights books I didn't yet know about. September is going to be a great month for reading!

I enjoy previewing the next month's books via the Monthly Book Buzz. I had already seen most of the previews in this one from the Fall/Winter Book Buzz. I have found a few that I feel like I would love to read. Thanks, NetGalley!!

A really great resource to keep on top of new releases, even if it is US-based! I love how long the excerpts are, it really gives you the opportunity to get a feel of the book

It's always great to have a sneaky peek at the next set of books that everyone will be talking about.

There's some fantastic stuff coming in September if this selection is any indication. The quirky-sounding 'Sourdough' by Robin Sloan is my main pick - it's unusual and witty and I just want to see where the story goes.

I love getting these. It gives me a chance to see what will be coming out, and to preview a few selections. I know what books to be on the lookout for to purchase.

Brilliant, an amazing way to find new author's and books in the near future. Reading the excerpts helps you to decide which books to request. I can be sure now I won't ask for books I won't be able to get interested in!

Thank you Netgalley, brilliant information!

I love reading Buzz Books, as it gives one a good idea about what is coming out soon.. So often one is spoilt for choice and once again, i am spoilt for choice. My purse is going to be empty again very soon! There are a few books that really appealed to me. Top of my list as a must read is 'The Child Finder' by Rene Denfeld. In those first few chapters, I was well and truly hooked. I really must find out what happens next! 'Little Fires Everywhere' is another that really appealed to me, as was 'Fever'.

I always love when these Buzz Books come available. It's an awesome way to be exposed to books you normally wouldn't reach for. It takes you out of your comfort zone. You get to read a few chapters of a book to see if you are going to like it or not. The best part is there is usually a link at the end of each one to click on to request! Brilliant!!

I knew that out of the titles sampled in this buzz books, there was one book I already had on my to be read list (The Child Finder), but after going through these - WOW. I'll be adding Fever by Deon Meyer to my list, along with Hanna Who Fell From The Sky by Christopher Meades, and Warcross by Marie Lu. That is three books that I had not heard anything about from any of my book-loving friends (in the industry and otherwise) that I will now be recommending to everyone to keep an eye out for these amazing stories!

First buzz book experience and it proved a great resource to keep me informed of new releases. It also allowed me to read extracts from books I normally wouldn't think of reading. I definitely will be come a buzz book regular.

I love these bite-sized monthly installments about the upcoming Buzz Books for the month of September. There are quite a few in particular I am looking forward to reading from this selection, including Celeste Ng's "Little Fires Everywhere" and Robin Sloan's "Sourdough."

Was this review helpful?

September has some amazing new releases, and this feature of Buzz Books Monthly has the best excerpts yet.

I've been waiting for Warcross to come out for a while now, reading the excerpt made me want to read it so much more.

A totally new book to me that caught my attention was Hannah Who Fell From the Sky. I'll need to pick up a copy of this one right when it comes out.

These are always amazing samplers!! Always helpful when looking for new books.

This is a great collection of excerpts of upcoming books for the month of September 2017.

It contains an introduction followed by a section with a list of "Literary Favorites and Emerging Titles", debut fiction, commercial fiction, and nonfiction titles. Then it has a section of "Week by Week" title releases and at the end some book excerpts that were originally published in Buzz Books 2017: Fall/Winter, and Buzz Books 2017: Young Adult Fall/Winter, and Buzz Books 2017: Romance. I particularly enjoyed the excerpt for Sourdough by Robin Sloan, he is the author of Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore which is a book I loved.

Overall, a great list of buzzing titles for the month of September 2017.

Love Buzz Books. Even though I've read through the 2017 Fall/Winter Buzz Book, the monthly books always have new info. This September issue is especially full of updated info, by week even, of new and exciting books. Debut authors are hot this fall and winter, which I find so encouraging to explore. Good news abounds. Get your copy now!

I love these round-ups. It's great to be able to get a sample before you read (or commit to reviewing). I'm so excited about Little Fires Everywhere and Hanna Who Fell From the Sky

Thank you for a great selection of 8 excerpts. I was already looking forward to Celeste Ng's "Little Fires Everywhere" and I am excited to get a preview of all the other authors that weren't on my radar.

I love the Buzz Books titles! It's great to see what is coming out when and to have the excerpts to read through.

Was this review helpful?

Ahh Buzz books! Where do I start? What can I say that hasn't already been said? All avid readers should be looking for each time these fantastic collections are released. It helps so much with choosing what you would like to read next and quite frankly - There is no other resource like it. Miss it and miss out!

I really enjoy these monthly lists. The ones that caught my eye were Robin Sloan's Sourdough, A Semi-Definite List of Worst Nightmares, by Krystal Sutherland, and Right Were You Left Me, by Calla Devlin.

September is always a big release month and I'm so glad I have Buzz Books to guide me through it - using the publishing calendar I found several awesome-looking books that slipped past my radar!

Always nice to get a preview of what's coming down the road. It gives an avid reader things to look forward to. I love these Buzz Books!

Was this review helpful?

Once again some interesting titles. I can recommend Good Me, Bad Me by Ali Land, a wonderful debut. A real psychological thriller.

In the Fall/Winter 2017 edition I loved the excerpt from Stay With Me (Ayobami Adebayo). I know, it's not in the September edition but I understand it is to be published in the USA on August 22nd. I missed this when it was available on NetGalley (I live in the UK and it was published in March this year). I was delighted when it became available from my local library as an ebook and I was able to borrow it. I loved it. The story is set in Nigeria. It's an emotional book - heartbreaking, happy, sad, funny - especially when there are family members who expect traditional customs to be maintained and they put a lot of pressure on Yejide and her husband Akin when she doesn't produce the desired grandchild. Heartbreaking but lovely.

This is a great concept where a reader gets "sneak peaks." I got some suggestions to read authors that would not have normally been on my radar..

Lots of cool stuff in SEPTEMBER BUZZ BOOKS!

There's quite an interesting variety of new books on the way, some I've already read....thanks to NetGalley....but many (Yikes!) that sound good that I haven't.....like CHILD FINDER by Rene Denfeld- a must read, FEVER by Deon Meyer and THE END OF THE WORLD RUNNING CLUB by Adrian J. Walker sounds pretty darn good too!

Not that I needed more books to add to my shelf, but it was fun getting a sneak peak, reading a few good excerpts and overall just checking out BUZZ BOOKS for the first time.

Thank you to NetGalley and Publisher's Lunch for the ARC in exchange for an unbiased review.

As usual, the monthly guide to new works is extremely helpful. The excerpts give potential readers a quick snippet of what to expect - and what to look forward to in that month.

So many books, so little time. This month was chocked full of good reads. I enjoyed Mr. Penumbra’s 24-Hour Bookstore by Robin Sloan, so I was happy to read the excerpt of Sourdough. I also enjoyed Little Fires Everywhere.by the inimitable Celeste Ng.

This is the first "Buzz Book" I have read and I really loved the excerpt of the book "The Child Finder". It's amazing and I want to buy it! Besides, I started a "memo" on my phone with titles I would like to read with books who appeared in September.
