Awesome as always! Discovered a few new titles and was able to request a few I've been waiting for all year!

Another super helpful Buzz Books edition! I've been out of the book scene for quite a while and this again was an easy way to find out what's happening. Reading excerpts gives you more of a feel for the book and helps you decide if it's something that interests you more than just seeing the blurb does.

As an avid reader I am always looking to see what is coming out in the upcoming season and discovering those hidden gems I have not heard about and these are the best resources to find that out. I have discovered so many books that either I didn't know about or wasn't sure about reading. This is a great book that does all that.

Thank you for another great addition of Book Buzz! Always such great titles and a great way to get a look into the upcoming books to see what would be good to read in the coming months!

What an amazing crop of books to look forward to! Just scanning through the table of contents and summaries, I added at least a dozen new titles to my TBR list. I'm especially excited for THE READER, THE FEMALE OF THE SPECIES, REPLICA, ONE HALF FROM THE EAST, and CARAVAL.

Buzz Books always provides the most helpful excerpts when choosing titles from the upcoming season. This is another excellent roundup of titles. Looking forward to reading the full books!!

So many good novels coming out! I requested quite a few, wished for one and added some to my TBR pile! The best thing about Book Buzz is that I am exposed to books I normally wouldn't even look at and that expands my comfort zone. I love finding new authors and am usually pleasantly surprised when I request a book from Book Buzz that is outside my normal genre and wind.up loving the book!

Loved the snippets! So excited to read the books!

Thank you for another great sampler! Looking forward to reading these books!

Buzz Books are great! I love the chance to sample some of these new books. I will be adding some of these to my TBR list and featuring them on my blog.

This sampler was so exciting! I'm anticipating Kendare Blake's book so much more, and it was great to check out the books I hadn't heard of yet. So many promising titles.

This is such an amazing collection! I am definitely looking forward to reading all of these awesome novels!

I love Buzz Books. I always find something new to read.

I really liked this! There was a good selection of different genres = a little bit of something for everyone. I'll for sure be looking into some of these books when they're released later this year. I would recommend this book. 5 out of 5 stars.

I was surprised to not be familiar with most all of the featured authors in this collection. Will give me something to look forward to.

I'm pretty excited for the YA Fall/Winter season. There are a few gems in this sampler that will rock the genre to its core!
This is not good for my to-be-read pile. I keep adding books to it!

I got the Adult catalog this afternoon and just found out about the YA one. So excited!

Quite a few titles I'm looking forward to. I've put my requests in - now just to cross fingers during the waiting game.

These samplers are very helpful because even when a book's description grabs my interest, it doesn't always work out (usually I just can't get into the author's writing style, which is no one's fault, just a preference thing), but the samplers give a good idea of what the reader is getting into.

I look forward to the release of buzz books sneak peeks so much. It definitely plays a big part in deciding my future TBR list.

This edition did not disappoint with excerpts of books I already had on my radar including... wait for it...CARAVAL! It is worth downloading for that excerpt alone.

Very helpful to see all these excerpts all in one place and got to see many books I hadn't heard about yet.

Thank you for another wonderful selection of excerpts! Buzz Books are the perfect first look at upcoming releases!

Very helpful!

This Buzz Books 2016 Young Adult Fall/Winter features an exciting array of excerpts from nine different publishing houses. The breadth of choice is really helpful and i hope that several titles will be available on NetGalley.

This is a collection of excerpts from some of the most highly anticipated YA books of 2016, focusing on those being released later on in the year.

My can't wait for books:

1. Frostblood by Elly Blake. I wasn’t interested in this at all before I read the excerpt but now I am definitely intrigued.

2. Three Dark Crowns by Kendare Blake

3. The Hawkweed Prophecy by Irean Brignull

4. The Forgetting by Sharon Cameron

5. The Reader by Traci Chee

6. Caraval by Stephanie Garber

7. Girl in Pieces by Kathleen Glasgow

8. Replica by Lauren Oliver. Another pleasant surprise, which is something I love about these collections.

9. Vassa in the Night by Sarah Porter

Brilliant to keep up to date on everything.

Love these books! They are so helpful for librarians. This YA sampler is particularly great for any librarian with a sizable teen population. Some very interesting titles highlighted here, in a wide variety of genres.

As always, Buzz Books Young Adult provides an exciting insight into the next season's premier upcoming titles, with a great mix of new and returning authors. Here are the samples that caught my particular interest.

Kids of Appetite - David Arnold

What an intriguing story. "Victor Benucci and Madeline Falco have a story to tell.
It begins with the death of Vic’s father.
It ends with the murder of Mad’s uncle.
The Hackensack Police Department would very much like to hear it." I wouldn't mind hearing it either. The excerpt starts with Vic in a police interrogation room. From what I can work out he is stalling while his friends play out the rest of their plan. It sounds adventurous, slightly crazy and yet dark and edgy.

Three Dark Crowns - Kendare Blake

Every generation three queens are born. They are raised separately, depending on their power's affinity, by the elementals, poisoners or naturalists. In the year of their sixteenth birthday, they must engage in a battle for the crown - a battle that will see two sisters dead and the third crowned as the ruler of the kingdom.

This sounds to be a deadly and exciting book. And with any good book about royalty and battles there is sure be an abundance of politics, romance, murder, secret plots and self discovery. There is also more than meets the eye to these three sisters. We start with Katharine. She has been raised by the poisoners and has suffered under the weakness of her gift. Her immunity to poison is weak, leaving her and her chance to win the throne weakened. The perspective then switches to Arsinoe, who too only has the weakest of naturalist powers. They both strive to keep their powers, or lack of them, a secret from their sister Mirabella, but the battle is looming.

The Forgetting - Sharon Cameron

Okay, forget the excerpt, let's all just take a moment to enjoy that cover...

At first a little confusing, The Forgetting weaves an intriguing tale and asks the question what would you choose or do if you knew you and everyone else would forget it? Nadia is the only person who does not forget. Every twelve years the people of Canann go through the Forgetting. In her seventeen years the last time Nadia witnessed the Forgetting her whole world changed. Now, she explores beyond the wall that encompasses her city, until she is discovered by Gray, the glassblower's son. And while the excerpt ends there, I feel that this will be a very interesting and beautiful book.

The Female of the Species - Mindi McGinnis

"This is how I kill someone." With that as the first line, you know this book has no choice to be edgy and direct in its honesty.

The chapters alternate between three teens, Alex, Peekay and Jack. You can tell that this will be a book that doesn't hold back and will appeal to the mature end of the ya market with great crossover potential. I enjoyed the excerpt and can't wait to read the entirety of this book.

Love and First Sight - Josh Sundquist

I enjoyed this excerpt and Love and First Sight is set to fill the gap I've had since Eric Lindstrom's Not If I See You First. Will Porter is going to high school. He expects to handle the transition to his new school just fine. It's the rest of the school community who may not know how to best handle his blindness. On his first day he gropes a girl on the stars, makes another girl cry for 'staring' and makes friends by sitting on someone during lunch. Will narrates with an honest and humorous voice that is instantly likeable and authentic. I can't wait to read the rest of the book.

The publishers provided a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Another really helpful edition for any serious reader. I loved getting excerpts of many amazing books that are coming out later this year. Having links to many of the books so that you can get the full title to review is also such a wonderful feature. All serious reviewers need to read this book.

Love the buzz books! Young Adult has some of the most exciting books and these buzz books make sure you don't miss out on new ones that you may look over.

Great collection, as always! I am always happy to see these previews, and after I'm done reading them, I am already waiting for the next one.

I love that you offer just enough of some of the great upcoming titles. It allows me to read what I need to and be familiar enough with the titles I won't get to.

This has been incredibly helpful for spotlighting books that I'm planning on reviewing and featuring as upcoming releases on my blog - thank you so much!

Loved being introduced to so many exciting new releases this way. Some books can't come soon enough!

I always love reading the Buzz Books and this seasons edition definitely did not disappoint!! I loved most of the extracts in the 2016 young adult fall/winter book. There are loads of really great fantasy novels in it that I am really looking forwards to being released or becoming available on NetGalley,

An incomparable resource for librarians.

I just love these Buzz Books! And once again, I have too many books on my "To Be Read" list. This is the perfect way to determine if you are interested in a book and want to read the entire thing.

I always look forward to the Buzz Books seasonal release! Learning what titles are being talked about is a great help to my reading list.

This is such an excellent resource for YA librarians to use when ordering for their teens. There is a good variety of genres, and enough of an excerpt to give you a good feel for the story line. I'll definitely be recommending this to our YA librarian to help her make decisions on her book orders!

I love these samplers! It's a great way for me to try out some of the buzz books and see which ones I'm interested in giving a full read, and which ones aren't for me. Thanks to this sampler, I got a taste of some books I've been hearing a lot about, and discovered a couple that I was unfamiliar with that I now can't wait to get my hands on!

I always eagerly await the release of these collections! Buzz Books picks some of the finest releases for the up coming season. Once again, I'm not surprised to have placed the majority of these on my TBR. Many of these authors are new faces to me & I previously wasn't interested in their work (based off covers alone) until I read the excerpts included in this bundle. I do it all the time, but I need to stop judging books by their covers!!

As always, Buzz Books YA is a great resource for teen librarians wishing to stay ahead of upcoming titles. It can sometimes be hard to take recommendations based on a short review and a cover, so Buzz Book's excerpts allow librarians to take a closer look at new publications and make informed decisions based on style and content.. Thanks!

Great selection! It's amazing how reading an excerpt can totally change your mind about a book. I've discovered a few titles which I would've overlooked without having read the excerpt. Yet I also thought I would like certain titles and then the writing style in the excerpt was just not my cup of tea. This will prevent me from wasting time with something I obviously don't like, as well as the opposite. Great stuff!

I liked quite a few of these, including some I had heard some YouTubers talking about already.

I'd like to finish: Kids of Appetite, Three Dark Crowns, Something in Between, Caraval, Girl in Pieces, The Thousandth Floor, The Female of the Species, Replica, The Hundred Lies of Lizzie Lovett, Love and First Sight and Frazzled.

Buzz Books 2016: Young Adult Fall/Winter is a great resource for people who are interested in getting an overview of a variety of upcoming YA titles. I loved that the entries had both synopses and excerpts, and that there was the option for obtaining the full-length galley for many of them. I am particularly looking forward to A Female of the Species by Mindy McGinnis and Frazzled by Booki Vivat.

I was able to request so many great books because of this publication! I love reading all the excerpts before I decide to request something. Keep it up!

As a high school Librarian I found this book very helpful. I have added many of the reviewed books onto my book order for the new school year.

I love the Buzz Books for YA. A great insight into the wonderful up and coming books of the season! It's great to be able to sample different books before they've been published!

What a great go to to look for read alouds to my classroom. I like that it gives the synopsis of the book and then an excerpt to see if this is really something I think my kids would enjoy. I would tell my readers to take a look at this book for their future individual reading, they might find something that sparks their interest that they might never think of reading.

It's always so exciting to get these sneak peeks at new books coming out in the next season. Reading these excerpts always makes me so excited, and I want to request all of them!

It is so difficult to write a review for a book with snippets from 20 new books and do each of them justice. I have taken down some thoughts about each one. I hope you find them helpful:

KIDS OF APPETITE by David Arnold This one centers around crime and an intellectual lead character with Moebius Syndrome. It reminds me of a YA "The Usual Suspects" from the excerpt because it starts in a police interrogation and is told in flashback.

FROSTBLOOD by Elly Blake 1st in a new series. A Fireblood girl who has been hiding from the Frost King's soldiers with a woman disguised as a healer is sold out by a local boy. I can't put my finger on what it reminds me of, but it reminds me of something. Really nice fantasy that hooks the reader immediately.

THREE DARK CROWNS by Kendare Blake I have to be up front. I have already pre-ordered this book, even before reading the excerpt. So I went into this one very excited. I wasn't let down. Three sisters (triplets) were separated at age 6. At 16, they must reunite to determine the heir to the throne. In a showdown to the death, the last girl standing wins the crown. It might take a moment to keep all of the characters straight, but this book will appeal to fantasy and "Hunger Games" fans alike.

THE HAWKWEED PROPHECY by Irena Brignull This book will be good for fans of Time of the Witches by Myers and Chime by Billingsley.

THE FORGETTING by Sharon Cameron Reminds me of Unwind by Neal Schusterman and Ember in the Ashes by Sabaa Tahir. Written in 1st person.

THE READER by Traci Chee Written in 3rd person. Sefia has spent 6 years on the run. Raised by her Aunt Nin, all is peaceful until soldiers attack their home. Sefia hides in the brush, but Nin is beaten, broken, and taken. Soldiers mention that the women are guarding "it". What is "it"? I don't know, but your fantasy and action fans will enjoy.

A SHADOW BRIGHT AND BURNING by Jessica Cluess 1st person fantasy with magic. Apparently wasn't my cup of tea because that's all I wrote.

SOMETHING IN BETWEEN by Melissa de la Cruz First, Melissa de la Cruz. So you know it's going to be realistic, gritty, and current. My library will be buying it and it will circulate. I really liked the inclusion of texting in the narrative. A Phillipino girl who has been offered a scholarship, which she can't take when she finds out that her entire family is illegally in the US.

THE CONTINENT by Keira Drake Fantasy.

CARAVAL by Stephanie Garber The tone of this novel is really amusing. Mystery, fantasy, and romance fans will all have something to follow if the rest of the book is anything like the excerpt.

THE EDGE OF EVERYTHING by Jeff Giles Really modern. What else would you expect from Jeff Giles?

GIRL IN PIECES by Kathleen Glasgow The excerpt wasn't particularly informative. It seemed like it would pair well with my "Challenger Deep", "Speak", or "Cut" readers.

ONE HALF FROM THE EAST by Nadia Hashimi While I have lingering questions, our library is likely to buy this book. It's about a ten year old girl in the Middle East posing as a boy to help her family. I'm intrigued. Why does that help? It seems like a book I could learn a lot from.

THE THOUSANDTH FLOOR by Katharine McGee Reminds me of "Uglies/Pretties" meets "The Westing Game". Mystery, murder, what's not to like? We will definitely be buying this.

THE FEMALE OF THE SPECIES by Mindy McGinnis Reading the summary, I wasn't expecting much but I really enjoyed this. It was full of action already. Teen readers will love it. Also buying this. It reminded me of Patterson's books or the Perry and Gobi series.

REPLICA by Lauren Oliver Lauren Freakin' Oliver. So you know it'll circulate and you know it will be good.
It has special instructions on how you can read it. All of one story then all of the other OR alternating perspectives. This will thrill some readers and turn others off. Maybe not one for the reluctant reader. But it is so unique, it will definitely make an impression.

VASSA IN THE NIGHT by Sarah Porter Reminds me of Cinderella - living with her stepmom and 2 stepsisters.
Reminds me of Russian folklore - Babs Yagg is not so different from Baba Yaga.
Traditional folktale with modern twist?
Reminds me of Cruel Beauty and Kill me Softly (Beau Rivage series).

THE HUNDRED LIES OF LIZZIE LOVETT by Chelsea Sedoti This is from Sourcebooks Fire (one of my favorite publishers) so it has that going for it. Mystery, murder, a girl taking another girl's place in life - sounds interesting!

LOVE AND FIRST SIGHT by Josh Sundquist This is what I was hoping for when I read "We Should Hang Out Sometime". Humorous and realistic, this book will capture readers of all ages.

FRAZZLED by Booki Vivat Middle school book in the vein of Diary of a Wimpy Kid and the Dork Diaries. I've preordered this for my own children at home and am strongly contemplating buying it for the high school library.

I received this book through NetGalley in exchange for providing an honest review.
