My TBR stack always grows by so much with every edition of this! I love reading the excerpts and I usually end up reading a handful of these. Thank you!

Aha! I have been wondering lately when this would be due out - I knew it was pretty close to the release date from last years issue and voila! Here it is! As YA books are one of my top two genres this is a must-read for me so I can get accustomed to some of the best upcoming spring/summer releases in the YA genre!

Along with the usual release calendar covering the time period until the next buzz books YA edition there are exciting excerpts from the likes of Stephanie Garber, Mary Weber and Matt Killeen to name but a few.

Once again, another great packed edition that helps me add to my already large and looming TBR!! Bravo!

I would like to thank Publishers Lunch, Other Contributors and NetGalley for providing me with a copy in exchange for an honest review.

I'm so excited that it's the time of year that Spring/Summer BuzzBooks are coming out! The seasonal compilations are my absolute favorite.

I love the preview books! This is where I get a lot of names of books coming out soon that I want to read.

I love these previews of novels about to be published! The excerpts were all awesome and I can't wait till I can buy them in bookstores!!

I always love receiving these! I was especially excited to read a sample of the Caraval sequel and wasn't disappointed. I can feel my TBR pile growing...

I find the compilation of excerpts of upcoming books to be released from buzz books extremely helpful and informative.

I love when they release a new one! So many books to add. This one had TONS of Fantasy, which is my personal favorite so I had to give it 5 stars.

I really enjoyed this sample of upcoming YA books. I think I'm most excited for Brightly Burning by Alexa Donne and Furyborn by Claire Legrand, but Chemistry Lessons by Meredith Goldstein and Sky in the Deep by Adrienne Young all look incredibly good as well. I will probably be picking some of these up when they release.

This collection from Publishers Lunch contained 12 books. I had 2 of the books on my TBR, I added 5 more, 2 were meh, and I skipped 3 because they were sequels.

Fawkes by Nadine Brandes [4 stars]: Son of Guy Fawkes? Sold. I don't read enough stories from a male POV. I really enjoyed what I read. Added to my TBR.

The Boy From Tomorrow by Camille DeAngelis [3 stars]: This is a MG book. I was kind of meh about it. I think my daughter would really love it and I wouldn't be surprised if this comes in an Owlcrate Jr box. I may or may not read it if it does :)

Brightly Burning by Alexa Donne [5 stars]: Loved this couple chapters of sci fi goodness. I like the sci fi trope of the spaceship failing. Added to my TBR.

Unbreakable by Sara Ella [skipped]: Third book in a trilogy I haven't read.

Legendary by Stephanie Garber [skipped]: Sequel to a book I didn't like.

Chemistry Lessons by Meredith Goldstein [5 stars]: Chemistry/science-y nerd stuff - YASSSSSSSSS! Added to my TBR.

Orphan Monster Spy by Matt Killeen [4 stars]: Younger kid me enjoyed any stories about WW2, the Titanic, and the Oregon Trail, so I'm not sure why this wasn't on my radar. I enjoyed the short bit I read :) Added to my TBR.

Furyborn by Claire Legrand [5 stars]: I already had this book on my TBR and now I am even more excited for its release. This is what I wanted Roar to be like and was disappointed when it wasn't!

Twelve Steps to Normal by Farrah Penn [4 stars]: I have to say that I was weary with it being a Patterson presents book and written by a Buzzfeed writer but don't judge a book by its cover (and by that I mean its publisher/author's resume?). I liked what I read so far even though it was the shortest excerpt so far - or at least it certainly seemed that way. Added to my TBR.

Frat Girl by Kiley Roache [3 stars]: Not sure how to feel about the little bit that I read. Depending on the reviews it gets when it's released, I may decided to give it a go. It wasn't awful or anything.

Reclaiming Shilo Snow by Mary Weber [skipped]: Sequel to a book I haven't read.

Sky in the Deep by Adrienne Young [5 stars]: HOLY CRAP! As if I couldn't get more hyped to read this novel, I get surprised with it being the last excerpt in this collection from Buzz Books. My heritage is Norwegian and I was raised celebrating Norwegian culture, so my obsession with Vikings will always be a thing. I have an ARC of this book on my desk. MUST READ ASAP. Easily my fave excerpt.

These catalogs never disappoint My TBR is ever growing and I just added a whole bunch of books just now, thanks to this! I'm super excited for all of these novels, especially Sky in the Deep, Furyborn, and Brightly Burning. Cannot wait to get my hands on them!

This is my first time reading a Buzz Books and I wonder why I didn't do it sooner. It had great excerpts to choose from, in a variety of genres (fantasy, sci-fi, romance, contemporary and historical fiction) for all tastes, stand alone and series. I'm specially interested in Fawkes and Sky in the Deep now. Legendary and Furyborn as well plus I loved their covers.
It was also great to check the list of upcoming titles. Specially interested in Philippa Gregory's Dark Tracks, Sarah J. Maas' A court of Frost and Starlight, Marissa Meyer's Heartless and Jenna Evans Welch's Love & Luck.
Non-fiction books that caught my attention were: Jeremy Daldry's The Teenage Guy's Survival Guide and Mackenzie Ziegler's Kenzie's Rules for Life

Another fantastic mix of samples! I'm particularly looking forward to the new Caraval book, Legendary and the intriguing debut by Matt Killeen, Orphan Monster Spy!

Buzz Books 2018: Young Adult Spring/Summer has provided such amazing excerpts for many upcoming releases. I can say, with certainty, that my TBR has grown larger today.

Great pick for the best news, excerpts, links, and more for upcoming YA titles! You're TBR pile will not thank you :)

Once again a wonderful selection of different sub-genres within the YA-category - this time around (thankfully..) only featuring a few that caught my eye, but those that did I am very excited about. A few of the others seem like they might be worth a short, too, depending on reviews. We shall see. Thanks!

Once again, Publishers Lunch has put together a great collection of excerpts for upcoming YA titles for Spring/Summer. I always manage to find a new book to look forward to from Buzz Books!

Another great Buzz Books Young Adult. Great for getting the new books of 2018.

Thank you to publisher and Netgalley for the chance to read.
While I got the book for free, it had no bearing on the rating I gave it.

What a brilliant way to expose the reader to a genre they normally wouldn't look at. When ever I see that a new Buzz Books is available I drop everything to see what new books are coming out! The icing on the cake is that there is a link at the end of each sample that takes you directly to Netgalley where you can request the ARC! It doesn't get any better than that does it?

I love Buzz Book's biannual releases, and I am really looking forward to some of these YA titles that are to be released in Spring/Summer 2018. There are a lot of interesting YA fantasy books that are being released in the coming months, and I the following titles have been successfully added to my TBR list...

-Fawkes: by Nadine Brandes
-Legendary (Caraval, #2): by Stephanie Garber
-Furyborn (The Empirium Trilogy, #1): by Claire Legrand
-Sky in the Deep: by Adrienne Young

Thank you, Publishers Lunch, for putting together this collection!

A really handy guide to some fantastic titles coming out this year. Perfect for any bookseller!

Super useful as always, it's a wonderful way to know the titles that will come!

Thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to read this sample pack of books coming to a bookstore near me soon. I am really looking forward to buying The Boy of Tomorrow for my niece who is in middle school I really think she will enjoy it I have also requested a few full galley's to read myself.

Once again, I loved reading through the latest Buzz Books. These books always load my TBR pile with more than I can handle.

The very first preview in this book is probably the one that I am most excited about. Fawkes, by Nadine Brandes is a YA tale of Guy Fawkes. I was interested from the moment I first saw that gorgeous cover (I must be honest. I 100% judge books by their covers.)
But then, there is that first line!!! "I wasn't ready to turn to stone". Ok Nadine Brandes- you have my attention!! Brandes' writing is beautiful and sucks you in immediately. I can hardly wait to get my hands on a copy of Fawkes!!

The next (also beautifully covered- THOSE COLORS!!!<3) novel that instantly grabbed my attention was Meredith Goldwstein's Chemistry Lessons. This book promises to be nerdy, mushy (in the best way), and just generally fun. This preview sucked me in, and I am so excited to see more of Maya, Kyle (I can just tell he will make me giggle), and Yael.

Orphan Monster Spy. This book seems so fast paced. It feels like the kind of novel you finish in one night. My heart was in my throat the entire preview, as Sarah ran from the soldiers. Its going to be an incredible, powerfully written read. Flipping through this book on my kindle to write my review, I am getting excited all over again.


And last but not least: Sky in the Deep. I knew I needed to get my hands on this book just from the summary.It explains that this story takes place in a war torn world. And the main character sees her brother. That last line. "The brother she watched die five years ago." WHAT!?! Yes please. I'm interested. Between that line and the beautiful black and gold cover of the girl holding the ax, I am calling this a must read. Not to mention the GORGEOUS writing. It is lyrical and descriptive. I am so excited.

I read all of them except the little part by Sara. Only because it's the last book in the Unblemished trilogy, which I've been wanting to read. The two I really enjoyed was the prologue for Legendary (which just made me want to read it now, so I shouldn't have read that part yet😂...) And the part of Furyborn, which is book one in a trilogy :)

I love seeing these pop up on NetGalley. I get so excited about the new upcoming releases, and I love knowing what to look out for.

Love reading all the excerpts and finding all the best reads for my TBR pile! Especially excited about the sequel to Caraval...

Drop what you're doing. This edition has an excerpt from Legendary by Stephanie Garber.... I repeat LEGENDARY (aka. Caraval #2). This is not a drill.

I think this has got to be my favourite edition so far. Not only do we get a fantastic excerpt from Legendary, but we also get to see some other fantastic books. Here are a few of my favourites.
Fawkes by Nadine Brandes
Chemistry Lessons by Meredith Goldstein
Furyborn by Claire Legrand
and many more.

You guys seriously need to check out this edition. It is amazing!

As always a get teaser for some books I am really looking forward to this year.
My list for the previews:
Fawkes
Brightly Burning
Legendary
Ski in the Deep
Orphan Monster Spy

I can not wait to be able to get my hands on these books! Looking forward to Orphan Monster Spy and Legendary the most!

I look forward to these update so much! I stalk Netgalley when I think one may be due till I am successful!

It always is full of the best snippets of great books to come and it always makes my tbr a lot bigger!

This is always a good way to see which books are getting publicity for the upcoming reading season. I was only intrigued by 3 of them, but it was a good use of time!

Really Interesting books coming this year. Excited to read them all!

This is my first time trying one of the Buzz Books, and it's safe to say that it won't be my last! Much appreciation for the wonderful galley of recommendations. Requested quite a few on Netgalley.

This is another great collection of excerpts! I know that several of these books are going to be very popular this year. I have my eye on Furyborn, Legendary, and a few other titles from this group. I look forward to featuring many of these books on my blog during the next few months.

As always, I enjoyed reading the spring/summer edition of Buzz Books 2018 for Young Adults. There are quite a few books in this edition that hold a lot of promise, and I can't wait to continue reading them. Especially Fawkes by Nadine Brandes. It looks really, really good.

Good preview got to know a bit more about some of the titles I had been anticipating as two of them were included in this sampler.

A great read for any YA reader or reviewer. I love reading the Buzz Books, it gives me a sneak peek at upcoming reads.

Great selection of titles as always, useful for filling my ever growing TBR shelf. Not so useful for my bank account!

Great resource as usual. Super excited for "Fawkes', 'Fury Born' and 'Sky In The Deep'.

I always enjoy previewing the new books. Gives me lots of good ideas for what to read next. This one didn't disappoint!

Thank you for the sneak peeks so I can decide which books I want to review!

This is a great collection of excerpts of Young Adult upcoming and published books in spring/summer of 2018.

It contains an introduction followed by a section of fiction and nonfiction titles. Last, there are summary and excerpts by publishers. I particularly enjoyed the excerpt for SKY IN THE DEEP by Adrienne Young.

Overall, a great list of buzzing YA titles for 2018.

I've always loved it when Netgalley does this. Allowing us to read snippets of upcoming books. Fantastic. Keep on doing this.

Every time a Buzz Books 2018: Young Adult Spring/Summer is published I am thrilled. I always find very good book recommendations and I discover new books that I wouldn't know exist otherwise. I also use this publications for inspiration for my blog posts.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for sending me a digital arc of these books. I am so excited for "Legendary" by Stephanie Garber. I only read a snippet but it was so good. Those who loved the first book will be very pleased. I am also looking forward to "Furyborn" by Claire Legrand. The writing is beautiful and the setting is wonderfully original. Many of the books in this buzz books will find a home at my library.

The Buzz Books samplers are fantastic; good array of upcoming titles.

I absolutely love when these lists come out. It really makes it so much easier to order for my young adults at the library and it makes it easier for me to complete my orders. It is like my book bible!

I always love getting these. It helps me narrow down my choices for the books for the spring! It is such a great review of the books to come.

When deciding which new titles to purchase, Book Buzz is one of the best resources.
