Description

Enjoy the first pre-publication samples of new work from bestselling authors Tracy Chevalier, Jojo Moyes, Kevin Wilson, Jeanette Winterson, and Eoin Colfer, known for his Artemis Fowl YA series. Readers addicted to thrillers will be glad this edition is packed with them: J.T. Ellison, Jeff Lindsay (introducing the first in a new series), Olaf Olaffson, and especially Imaginary Friend, the long-awaited second book by Stephen Chbosky, author of The Perks of Being a Wallflower. At the end of most excerpts, you will find a link to the full galley on NetGalley!

This Buzz Books includes 12 debut novels, including the highly-touted Such a Fun Age by Kiley Reid (a BEA Buzz Editor’s Panel pick) and the thriller Saint X, by Alexis Schaitkin, along with first novels of distinction by Elizabeth Ames, April Davila, Eliza Nellums, E.R. Ramzipoor, and more.

Memoir dominates our large nonfiction list of 11 titles. From Adrienne Brodeur’s account of her mother’s affair to former United States Ambassador to the United Nations and Pulitzer-Prize winner Samantha Power’s The Education of an Idealist, these stories make for fascinating reading. Two true crime titles re-examine mysteries in Los Angeles and West Virginia: Dark Waters by Jake Anderson and The Third Rainbow Girl by Emma Copley Eisenberg.

I felt like it took a while for this to come out, I love reading these previews of the next hottest books to hit the shelves. As if my TBR wasn't bloated enough, it's even more bloated now. Thank you Buzz Books!

I love these preview books! I am excited to find some new books to get hyped about and I cannot wait to see what kind of books are in here.

Loved this !!

I'm always trying to find out what up and coming in the literary world. Absolutely devour reviews in the papers each week and delving into the Sunday Times Culture magazine for what new.

This is perfect - both as a book to read through but also to keep dipping into to see what happening next. It was also good to read a little more about how publishers work and why certain times of the year are more important for the release of books

This is certainly something that should be available in libraries both for staff and customers to keep up to date

Invaluable !!

I look forward to each new edition of Buzz Books! It is an AMAZING resource of upcoming releases. I find it so helpful for planning my TBR, ARC requests, and content for my bookstagram account. The excerpts are a great length to get a feel for the author and their writing. I will request this resource every time it is published!

When ever I see a new Buzz Books is available I run to it!! I love the idea of getting exposed to a book I normally wouldn't pick up. I have found wonderful new to me authors this way and it's so easy to request an ARC with the link at the end of each excerpt. I requested a few of them and wrote a bunch down to check out further! Thank you so much for doing this!! Keep up the good work!!

As usual these Buzz books are so helpful to those of us who love to read or just understand more about current literature. It helps to discover what to look out for without committing to reading or buying the full books. Thanks.

Buzz Books 2019 Fall/Winter.
I really enjoy these books that give some of the upcoming books coming out with excerpts and info about the books. It gives you a sample of each and you get to check out new authors and see any upcoming ones you might want to read.

Was this review helpful?

As always, Buzz Books present a varied selection of samples that includes fiction, debut authors, and nonfiction. I was thrilled to get so many choices; this issue is packed! There were recognizable names (Jojo Moyes, Meg Waite Clayton, Tracy Chevalier), as well as an impressive array of less known and debut authors. I had requested Frankissstein by Jeanette Winterson and Saint X by Alexis Schaitkin to start with, but I be sure to come back to guide for more!

Was this review helpful?

A wonderful selection in Buzz Books 2019: Fall/Winter and it will be so difficult to choose what to add to my tbr pile. I can see myself ending up reading the vast majority of these books, especially the historical fiction, sagas and thrillers.

Was this review helpful?

The Buzz Books Fall/Winter 2019 catalog holds a veritable treasure trove of books. I anticipate reviewing these each season. It is user friendly and provides a brief synopsis of many of the up and coming new releases along with convenient links to request the books from NetGalley.

I have already requested a few of these new releases and have them on my shelf to read. After reviewing this, there are a few others that I have noted for potential review as well.

Thank you again for providing this compilation of Fall and Winter releases for review.

Was this review helpful?

Excellent selection of extracts from upcoming fiction, debut and non-fiction titles.
There is much to be enjoyed here, but a few personal highlights were:
The Divers Game by Jesse Ball. This came across as a thought experiment wrapped around social commentary on exclusion and racism. The omniscient point of view kept the reader from engaging with the characters.
A Single Thread. Tracy Chevalier. Set in 1932, this novel opens with a dense with interesting exposition which perfectly sets up the Cathedral setting and lifestyle of our older main character, Violet, and her typing work in Winchester.
HighFire. Eoin Colfer. It was interesting that this extract is from chapter 4 of this novel. Fine character building and excellent description of the setting hooks the reader from the first paragraph. Adult contemporary language.
American Dirt by J. Cummins, is an powerful and emotionally charged description of the aftermath of criticising the drug cartels in Acapulco.
Takes one to know one. Susan Issacs. The first person voice takes you straight inside the head of a great female lead. Intelligent, aware and naturally intuitive, Corie Geller is a former FBI agent and now stepmother.
And most intriguing of all - Just Watch Me by Jeff Lindsay. One I will certainly be looking out for!

Was this review helpful?

Buzz Books is such a valuable resource to me. As a baby book reviewer, I'm not always in the know - that's where Buzz Books comes in. For example, I knew to (eagerly) anticipate a sequel to the Handmaid's Tale and a new book from Lindy West this fall. But I had no idea what's coming out in the nonfiction market.

Ones that are particularly intriguing to me are The Geography of Risk: Epic Storms, Rising Seas, and the Cost of America’s Coasts (Gilbert M. Gaul), Things We Didn't Talk About When I Was a Girl (Jeannie Vanasco), and the Highway of Tears (Jessica McDiarmid). I also have high hopes for Lifespan: The Revolutionary Science of Why We Age––and Why We Don’t Have To (David Sinclair) and 999: The Extraordinary Young Women of the First Official Jewish Transport to Auschwitz (Heather Dune Macadam). Big thanks to Buzz Books for putting all these on my radar!

Was this review helpful?

This is a very good preview of the adult books that are coming out! Notable: Eoin Colfer’s Highfire, which has all the charm of Artemis Fowl and also all the swearing. Good Girls Lie by JT Ellison, which had me utterly fascinated.

I am always anxious to get my book loving hands on the latest Buzz Books, and 2019: Fall/Winter edition did not disappoint. I love to read excerpts, book descriptions are fine, but let me see the first few chapters of a book, and I am rarely wrong about my choices when I get an ARC or purchase a copy. A few that I am excited for: Imaginary Friend(Stephen Chbosky), Good Girls Lie(J.T. Ellison), How Quickly She Disappears(Raymond Fleischmann), Such a Fun Age(Kiley Reid), and Saint X(Alexis Schaitkin). I hope that Buzz Books continues to publish these guides, as I always find something to look forward to reading(ok, truth be told, I added over a dozen books to my Want to Read shelf on GoodReads).
I received a DRC from Publishers Lunch through NetGalley.

A seductive preview of the best of the new books for the season and it's FREE!

First introduced for the 2012 Book Expo America, the FREE digital Publishers Lunch Buzz Books has become the place for both industry professionals and book lovers in general to discover and read about the books expected to spark high demand BEFORE they are published!

There are 45 fall and winter books for adults in this edition of Buzz Books. A second volume handling the burgeoning young adult titles is available.

"Publishers usually release their most prominent literary titles in the fall.The Introduction gives an overview of the upcoming publishing season broken down by literary fiction, debut fiction, commercial fiction, and followed by non-fiction conversation starters, memoir, and biography".

What's really great is that after many selections in Buzz Books, you have the option to follow a link and request the complete galley copy from Net Galley if you qualify as a 'professional' reader.

The fiction titles that caught my eye included Elizabeth Berg's The Confession Club (Random House, November), a sequel to The Handmaid's Tale from Margaret Atwood titled The Testaments (Nan A. Talese, September), another sequel from Elizabeth Strout called Olive Again (Random House, October), and I have already received copies of T.M. Logan's 29 Seconds (St. Martin's, September) and Lisa Lutz's The Swallows (Ballantine, August).

Personal favorites Louise Penny and Linwood Barclay both have books coming out this fall: Penny's A Better Man (Minotaur, August) and Barclay's Elevator Pitch (William Morrow, September).

In non-fiction, I was interested in Talking to Strangers: What We Should Know About the People We Don't Know (Little, Brown, September), the latest offering from Malcolm Gladwell. Elton John's The Autobiography (Holt, October) and Patti Smith's Year of the Monkey (Knopf, September) both caught my eye too.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED FOR AVID BOOK READERS EVERYWHERE!

This is such a fantastic resource for a bookstagrammer. I look forward to reading through this every time it comes out.. I added at least a dozen books to my TBR and love that it has publisher contact information. I think I’m most excited for The Great Pretender by Susannah Cahalan. I loved Brain on Fire and this sounds fantastic.

Was this review helpful?

It is a truly exciting day when Publisher's Lunch releases their latest edition of Buzz Books. It makes me so happy! I drop everything and binge read this from cover to cover, several times. Each time I find something new and notable.

In fiction, I am looking forward to reading JT Ellison's Good Girls Lie, Lisa Jewell's The Family Upstairs, TM Logan's 29 Seconds, Kira Peikoff's Mother Knows Best, and Catherine Steadman's Mr. Nobody.

In nonfiction, I want to read the books by Malcolm Gladwell, Alicia Keys, and Hoda Kotb.

Thank you Publisher's Lunch for an extensive compilation of up and coming books and compelling excerpts that pique my interest in what's publishing this fall and winter.

I love this series of books. I can't believe I didn't really look at them before but they're great to read little snippets of upcoming releases. I've definitely added a whole bunch to my TBR.

Lovely as always. I depend on these catalogs to highlight books I may not have heard about yet and start making a wish list.
I love the mix of samples this time!

Was this review helpful?

This was my first sampler and I’m so glad I finally tried it! If you haven’t read it before it has excerpts from a variety of books. Each book is introduced with a brief blurb, although some are more detailed than others, followed by the sample. Each book is listed as a chapter heading on my kindle so it was very easy to skip through the books that did not interest me. Unless you really hate the description it’s worth giving the sample a try. I found a few books really interesting that I normally would have skipped based on the description. In fact there is one I really loved and will have to pre-order if I don’t get to read it through NetGalley because it was so riveting. There is fiction and non-fiction titles. This is a great way to check out new and different books and check out other writers I’m not familiar with.

I really enjoyed this resource for books that are to be published later this year. Exactly what I look for in a resource guide - Concise, consistent and how can I get this book.

It is laid out well -

Debut
Nonfiction

Summary of the book, a considerable excerpt and then info on the author and as I said before - where can I get a copy or an ARC.

I am a consumer and have been anxiously awaiting some of these authors.

What a lovely series of excerpts. Ranging from thrilling science fiction to funny contemporaries, these stories are a must-have,

I cannot tell a lie. When Buzz Books changed from a monthly format to a seasonal format, I was disappointed. I SO looked forward to the monthly editions, combing through them once more when I was putting my reading list together for the next month! But. This format is growing on me. SO many books! SO many excerpts. And really good stuff in this issue. The older I get, the more drawn I am to nonfiction, and this edition is chockfull of some fabulous nonfiction choices. In addition, I was reminded of a few fiction releases that I'm especially looking forward to. Buzz Books is definitely a tool I depend on to navigate through all the wonderful reading possibilities coming up.

Was this review helpful?

Some really interesting books coming out! Usually I’m interested in the debuts and don’t really like non-fiction, but it was the opposite here. I’m keen to read the books by Meg Waite Clayton, Susan Isaacs, Liz Moore, Jojo Moyes, Kevin Wilson, Kiley Reid, Susanna Calahan, Emma Copley Eisenberg and Megan Phelps-Roper.

Oh my, what an incredible treat! My reading list has gotten much longer! I certainly appreciated the summary and excerpt together to get the real feel from each book. It gave me a chance to look at books that I ordinarily wouldn't have even given the slightest thought. What a treasure!

A wide selection of samples of upcoming titles. Particular highlights for me were:
Jesse Ball - The Diver's Game
Jeanine Cummins - American Dirt
Andrew Krivak - The Bear
Ben Lerner - The Topeka School
Kira Peikoff - Mother Knows Best

Kiley Reid - Such a Fun Age
Alexis Schaitkin - Saint X

Nefertiti Austin - Motherhood so White


I found it offputting when some of the synopses were really short as though no effort had been put into them.

I loved referring to the Buzz Books every season to see the latest releases coming out! There were so many in here that are now on my lists and I can't wait to read them! I love that you can read excerpts from the first chapter to get a feel if the book may be a good fit before you request it. I always look forward to the latest Buzz Books coming out and I will continue to refer to this as my resource for some of the newest releases!

I always look forward to these lists from Buzz Books because there's always a few surprises for me. I see several of my must reads on this list. Most notably: Imaginary Friend and Mother Knows Best. I did not know about Cold Storage prior to this list. I loved the excerpt from Cold Storage, and I will definitely be adding that one to my must read list.

Thank you again!

I have grown to love and anticipate these previews as much as the books they discuss each season! These are a wonderful preview of upcoming works and a way to get ready for the next 6 months of reading delights. The excerpts are terrific and feature some amazing authors and a variety of genres. The other part that I enjoy is the lists of books broken down within their given genre. Some of it helps to know what to look for on NG but also what to anticipate on the shelves.

Thanks for this tradition!

This is a book every reader should add to their bookshelf. It's got information on some of the most interesting books coming out in the next season as well as some excellent excerpts for you to sample. It's an opportunity to read some authors who may not be familiar to you as well as some who are in your regular "go to" list. After learning about the new books that are on the horizon, I'm going back in a deliberate fashion and making a list of books that I want to be sure to watch for, along with their release date. That way I can make arrangements to get the book either through NetGalley, my local bookseller, or the local library. The only concern I have? Too many books of interest, too little time to indulge my reading habit. Thank you to NetGalley and Publishers Lunch from Buzz Books for providing me with this advance copy in exchange for an unbiased review.

This is the first time I’ve grabbed this in ages. I’m super excited for several of these books now. It’s great to have excerpts to get a taste of what’s to come!

This is the first time I have read a Buzz Books. I am so looking forward to the arrival of many of the books that are listed in the Fall/Winter edition. I also enjoyed reading excerpts from some of the novels due to come. This is a very exciting way to learn what is coming. As a huge book fan this is almost as good as Christmas morning! Thanks to NetGalley for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.

This is my first time reading about upcoming books and I loved this! It was so much fun to read all the excerpts and I already know I will have a wish list filled with books for the colder months. This was such a great thing for me because it's sometimes hard to find all the new and upcoming book releases and this book allows you to find them and read some of the books!

Thank you so much for this special treat for any booklover!!

There go all my resolutions to stop requesting more previews. Funny, though, it isn’t the tried and true authors who appeal to me so much, although I couldn’t go past Elizabeth Strout’s Olive, Again or Richard Russo’s Chances Are.... I probably have a snowflake’s chance in You-Know-Where of having wishes granted for advanced copies from those two literary giants. Plus there’s a new Louise Penny, A Better Man, that I’ll be on the lookout for.

Another is The Giver of Stars, historical fiction by Jojo Moyes, about the young women who carried library books on horseback to people in the boondocks as part of an Eleanor Roosevelt program. It’s such an intriguing combination of things I enjoy– horses, books, backwoods, Eleanor Roosevelt - that I must see if Moyes pulls it off.

As for the others, have a look at the Goodreads blurb for some inspiration. I'm off to cross my fingers now and wait.

As always, I thank and blame NetGalley and Publishers Lunch for my hopeless addiction to their preview copies.

If you, too, would like to become addicted, you can download previews from Publishers Lunch here: http://buzz.publishersmarketplace.com/

Buzz Books is one of my fave ways to get sneak peek at upcoming titles. Saves time since I can preview and request review copies earlier than I'd normally become aware of the forthcoming titles. Excellent array of genres and snippets of debut novelists too.

I cannot wait to dive into these books. All the books I can read are in one convenient place. While they are all Adult books, they fall into smaller sub-categories to appeal to a variety of audiences. I really loved the samples of the books that are included.

I always love having access to these previews of upcoming books. I also love having a list at the beginning that has titles/authors/publish dates at the beginning for upcoming new releases.

This is a fun, great way to preview upcoming books - a chapter or so of each anticipated book is shared - the range is lovely and diverse - something for everyone. Some genres I’m not into and while i didn’t end up going past a couple of paras of a few, I appreciated the opportunity to sample. There were some good ones and debut authors as well - always great to see new writers being published. Three in particular I’m eager to check out - The Sweetest Fruits by Monique Troung, The Great Pretender by Susannah Cahalan, and Here We Are: American Dreams, American Nightmares. Thanks NetGalley and all the publishers for providing a much-anticipated window into fall/winter 2019.

LOVE LOVE LOVE Buzz Books. These are by far my favorite way to learn about upcoming books and decide what I need to read next.
So, the biggest things I learned from this particular edition of Buzz Books is that there are a LOT of big name authors with new releases coming out, that I think a lot of people will be really excited about. A few of the books I'm personally excited about (some big name, some debut) are (Drumroll please)

The Remaking by Clay Mcleod Chapman- Ok, this might actually be the book I'm the very most excited about. This book feels spooky. Like campfire in the middle of a forest at midnight or something that is meant to be read in the dark, under the covers with a flashlight spooky. I can hardly wait to sink my teeth into it. The writing style feels almost like it is meant to be read aloud and something tells me it is going to give me nightmares for days when I finally get a copy. I could not be more excited.

Imaginary Friend by Stephen Chbosky - so, I almost feel like it doesn't matter what this book is about. This book is another creepy one. It feels like a fast paced thriller. And (almost more importantly) it was written by the brilliant human who wrote the Perks of Being a Wallflower.

ALSO big news (another book that I don't feel like it much matters what the content is- it WILL be worth reading. Eoin Colfer has a book coming out for adults! All I'm going to say is that there is a dragon, and it seems like it will be REALLY WEIRD and also its Eoin Colfer. So, read it immediately.

American Dirt - Jeanine Cummins - I've actually never heard of Jeanine Cummins, and this is the first I'm hearing about this book. HOWEVER this book seems like it will be an incredible, not to mention timely, read about immigration. The opening was incredibly quick and intense. This is a book that opens up by getting your heart racing and makes you worry for characters before you even get the chance to get to know them.

Another big name JT Ellison has a new book coming out! Honestly, I'm a huge sucker for really gossipy novels. I love them. They have always been my guilty pleasure reads. Well- the newest JT Ellison book will be about an Ivy League school and a secret society. So, sign me right up.

Another huge name- Jojo Moyes. Honestly, that was all I needed to know. If it has her name attached I will read it. Fall reading this year is looking so so good.

Mother Knows Best - Kira Peikoff - Alright. Let's start this one off by quickly talking about how upsetting horror novels with children in them are. Really. Is ANYTHING creepier?! I think not. I expect this to be just is deliciously creepy as any other scary book featuring children as a main character.

Debut author Eliza Nellums - All That's Bright and Gone - This book has a beautiful cover (who ISN'T a sucker for a pretty cover) and Nellums writing style is beautiful as well. I will for sure try to get my hands on a copy of this as soon as I possibly can.

Last but not least is a non fiction pick - The Great Pretender by Susannah Cahalan - So, this is another one of those books that I would read regardless of the topic due to the author. If you haven't read Cahalan's book Brain on Fire, do it now. And then go watch it on Netflix. And then read it again. It's So. Good. Her new book is about an experiment in which people had themselves committed to an insane asylum with the goal of proving their sanity. My impression is that it didn't go well. I can't wait to read it. Cahalan is an incredible writer and found a fascinating topic to cover.

I'm a big fan of these Buzz Books because of the variety of genres and titles that are mentioned or excerpted. It's a lovely idea.

This particular Buzz Book is PACKED with excerpts, I counted forty-five (but I might be off) as well as a list of other books that are soon-to-be-published. I've added a few of these to my watch list as they looked really intriguing.

I'd encourage checking these out if you get a chance as they're wonderful for adding to my "To-Be-Read" list.

I love getting this and knowing what I look forward to reading and what I thought would be good isn't and so forth. It really gives me things to look forward to. It gives me a chance to try out new authors I wouldn't normally try and see if I like them.
Thank you to Netgalley and the publishers for allowing me to read this in exchange for an honest review.

Ahh! This has been by far one of the best buzz books out! I may have requested almost all. I am so excited and look forward to all of these! Saint x! Chestnut man, 999, dark waters, tiny habits and more! It’s going to be a great fall/winter!

I have a love/hate relationship with these Buzz Books collections put out by Publishers Lunch. On one hand, I love that there are so many new, interesting titles to add to my TBR pile. On the other hand, I hate that there are so many new, interesting titles to add to my TBR pile.

This collection contains a multitude of books to be released this upcoming fall/winter. There is a good mix of books that are lighter and seem more fun - for example, Eoin Colfer's Highfire - along with those that are more heavy-hitting and important reads - for example, Jeanine Cummins's American Dirt, Andrew Krivak's The Bear, Eliza Nellums's All That's Bright and Gone, E.R. Ramzipoor's The Ventriloquists. There are also quite a few nonfiction reads that seem intriguing as well, such as Susannah Cahalan's The Great Pretender and Samantha Power's The Education of an Idealist.

This is probably one of the most interesting (and most extensive) collections that Buzz Books has released recently, and I'm excited to dive into quite a few of these reads.

This is my third Buzz Book I have read and reviewed. These books are my “Go To” source for upcoming reading selections. I have taken the opportunity and am thrilled to be able to utilize the “request” links embedded in the excerpts for several books. In fear of accumulating too many requests from publishers, I have added many to my “to Be Read” list and will request them from the library at a later date.. Every time I reference a Buzz Book I have to pause and sigh.....So Many Books, so Little Time!

⭐️Book Review ⭐️
Buzz Book 2018 Fall/Winter

**I received this book as an ARC from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.**

This is the first Buzz Book I have read.

I was really excited to see the Debut novel excerpts. Super bummed to ONLY see the excerpt though. Two- three chapters were not enough for these two especially...

Cold Storage by David Koepp
Three men are working together to contain a highly contagious organism for the government. You can sense the heart pounding adventure in the short excerpt- I need more!

The Chestnut Man by Soren Sveistrup
A serial killer is terrorizing Copenhagen. Marius stumbles upon a murder scene- teen, her mother, brother and sister hiding amongst chestnut dolls...
And then I need MORE!

Wow, specifically these two stood out to me as I love thrillers.

Was this review helpful?

I love that this is broken down into sections for fiction, nonfiction, and debut authors. There are around 45 selections in here so I was not at a loss for reading options. I think I requested almost half the book in full copies to read! This has a little bit of everything so it's perfect for anyone looking to find the next great read.

I'd seen these Buzz Books issues floating around before but never looked at one before today. I am very happy I came across this! This is a great way to find new books that are coming out over the next few months. It is divided into several sections: fiction, debut, and nonfiction. I was able to discover a number of books that are now added to my Goodreads list just from perusing this issue. Some books I hadn't heard about that I am now super excited to read, others I had heard about and am now even more intrigued about. I highly recommend this series to find new books!

I decided to download the Buzz Books Fall/Winter 2019, because among other writers there is Jojo Moyes, which is one of my favorite! Curious to know all I can about the new book releases at the end of 2019, the Buzz Books is the best way to get updated info about my favorite authors. Besides, it gives me the opportunity to get to know new authors and find among these a new favorite!

What I need to do is quit my job and start reading full time! Yes!, that’s me dreaming again. But for now I’ll settle for every spare second my family will let me read! 🤨
Book Buzz 2019, great reads was a glimpse in each book on this list. I’ve added some of them to my TBR pile and can’t wait for some of them to come out!
I didn’t find all of them interesting to me, but I think a lot of them are going to be GREAT reads!

These are my thoughts on a few:

• Clay M Chapman, “The Remaking” seems very promising.
• Stephen Chbosky, “ Imaginary Friend” seems scary....I’m scared!
• Tracy Chevalier, “A Single Thread” looks promising and I love WW2 books.
• Meg W Clayton, “The Last Train to London” looks promising.
• Jeanine Cummins, “American Dirt” is a must read!
• Jojo Moyes, “The Giver of the Stars”, I HAVE TO READ THIS NOW!
• Olaf Olafsson, “The Sacrament” looks good.
• Susannah Cahalan, “The Great Pretender”. I really want to read this!
This is a NETGALLEY gift and all opinions are my own.

These samplers really make me look forward to new books coming out and this has been one of my favorite samplers yet. There are lots of old favorite authors coming out with new books, including: Linwood Barclay with Elevator Pitch, Lee Child with Blue Moon, Robin Cook with Genesis, Joseph Finder with House on Fire, and Barbara Ehrenreich with Had I Known.

And lots of new to me authors I want to read, especially in the biography category, like: Bob McDonald with An Earthling's Guide to Outer Space, Julie Andrews with Emma Walton Hamilton with Home Work, and Adam Rippon with Beautiful on the Outside.

There are way too many new books coming out that I want to read, and no where near enough time to read them all....what a great problem to have!

The Publishers Lunch Buzz Books series is an excellent guide for anyone who loves books and keeping up to date on new arrivals. This series is the go-to place for samples of literary releases prior to publication. Buzz Books 2019: Fall/Winter offers readers uncomparable access to advance excerpts from promising debut authors to such notables as Margaret Atwood, Salmon Rushdie, and Tracy Chevalier.

Non-fiction categories include social issues, science & technology, history and crime, essays, criticism & more, as well as biography & memoir. This year's biography & memoirs include Julie Andrews, Elton John and Mitch Albom among others.

I highly recommend Buzz Books 2019: Fall/Winter and the ongoing series for readers who want to keep abreast of upcoming releases and make well informed decisions on book purchases.

Looking forward to so many of the books coming up for Fall/Winter (and I've already read some!). It's truly great to be able to depend on Buzz Books to tip you off early to what is coming up in the book world so that you know what to look for and when. I'm pleased to say I've already been able to read JoJo Moyes, "The Giver of Stars"; Elizabeth Berg, "The Confession Club"; Ta-Nehisi Coates, "The Water Dancer"; Alice Hoffman, "The World That We Knew"; Elizabeth Strout, "Olive, Again"; Jacqueline Woodson, "Red at the Bone"; and Kiley Reid, "Such a Fun Age". I'm having a wonderful Fall reading experience so far - and I'm looking forward to more!

I love these. Let’s face it, everyone who downloads these does it with the sole purpose of opening it and reading it. The purpose of this is to discover new books, new authors and to (if you are smart) plan out which books to request when so you aren’t overwhelmed with a TBR list a mile long. None of us must be smart then because every time I get one of these I am just window shopping for books like, “ oh, I want that one and that one. That looks good too. Maybe I’ll read that one let’s just add it to the list.”

Anyone who loves books needs access to this to help them explore new books. The excerpts are the best part. I can’t tell you how many times an excerpt has saved me from requesting a book I know I wouldn’t like or would struggle to finish. Thank you Buzz Books! Ready for 2020!
