Buzz Books 2016: Young Adult Fall/Winter

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.

Wow. I need all of these books! This is probably the best collection I've seen so far!

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.

A great variety of intriguing excerpts in the YA genre. As usual, Buzz Books offer a collection of snippets from exciting new releases.

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!

Some great titles here that I've added to my "to read" shelf. Always grateful for these awesome previews!

Excellent Excerpts - plenty of titles that are worthy of being added to the library collection.

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.

Thanks for an amazing set of excerpts! I've discovered a couple of new titles, and it was great to get a peak at some that I've really been looking forward to.

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.

Buzz Books are one of my favourite things to look forward to now that I've discovered them. Thanks to the excerpts, I am now looking forward to a number of books that I hadn't known about before. This is a great way to put a book out there and keep readers on their toes for the rest!

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.

This was a fantastic set of excerpts! I have so many new books to add to my tbr list now. Most of these authors were new to me so I'm super excited to give them a read. Thank you so much for providing this!

The best thing about these is that I get to see if I like the author's voice before requsting the full galley. Love!

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.

Buzz Books are one of my favorite ways to discover new books and I eagerly await each new release! Here are some of the samples that caught my eye in this edition.

Three Dark Crowns by Kendare Blake has the unique premise that really piqued my interest! In every generation, a set of triplets is born: three queens, all equal heirs to the crown and each possessing a coveted magic. On their sixteenth birthday, they must fight for the crown and the survivor becomes queen. Wow!

The next story that really intrigued me is The Hawkweed Prophecy by Irena Brignull. A switched at birth premise, but one of the girls is a powerful witch destined to rule them all! Apparently Fate steps in to make sure the girls meet and the prophecy comes to pass. The sample was so good that I can't wait to read the rest!

Next on my wishlist is The Forgetting by Sharon Cameron. The main character, Nadia, lives in a walled city where every twelve years the citizens undergo a collective Forgetting. Like amnesia, they lose all memories of themselves, their lives, and their families. Nadia is unique in that she has never forgotten. Can she find out why and if there's any way to prevent it from happening again?

Since Lauren Oliver is one of my favorite authors, I was excited to read the Replica excerpt. I'm a sucker for stories about clones and this one sounds fascinating! The physical book is supposedly a "flip book" where you turn the book one way to read Gemma's story, then upside down to read Lyra's story. Sounds like an annoying gimmick, so glad that the ebook is a normal read. Looking forward to reading this one, as I really liked both girls!

The last sample to whet my appetite surprised me a little, as I didn't think I'd like it. The Hundred Lies of Lizzie Lovett by Chelsea Sedoti isn't my usual type of read, but I fell for the main character after only a few pages! I mean, how can you not love a girl who immediately assumes her brother has become a zombie because he's acting weird? Or that her best friend has been replaced with a pod person when she disagrees with her about something? Hawthorn is quirky, and I love quirky!

I should probably stop reading Buzz Book samplers because my wishlist is getting out of control, but it's one of my guilty pleasures!

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.

A dream come true for reviewers and book enthusiasts. A valuable list of the hottest upcoming books.
Thanks a ton!

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!

These excerpts are the best thing ever. They give you just enough information to "taste" a book and see if you'd really be interested in reading it. As a book blogger, it's super important to me to be able to read books that I really think that I'll enjoy and this is a HUGE time saver.

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 absolutely love Buzz Books. There are so many great titles to explore, and my TBR is totally not complaining. Love love LOVE it!

This book is fantastic as always, with tasteful, interesting excerpts from highly anticipated YA novels. Truly a useful tool.

Good way to taste a bit of the books that are in the publishing pipeline! Reading chapters is always better than reading blurbs.

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!

This book sampler gave me a chance to read through some possible book samples. I was even able to request a few galleys from NetGalley. I also talked over some of the titles with my teenage children and we found some books they would like to read. All in all, a great sampler!

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!

Another great sampler full of titles that sound intriguing. I found several new titles that I'm looking forward to reading this fall/winter, and I can't wait to share them with the internet, friends, and family.

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.

A great resource for busy librarians and educators of middle grade and young adult readers. A valuable tool for discovering and choosing future titles and to stay current and on trend with the targeted age group. Excerpts from 20 upcoming titles in a wide range of topics and genres that are sure to appeal to the intended audience. Highly recommend!

Thank you Buzz Books for allowing me to preview some of the most anticipated Fall & Winter reads! I love discovering new authors, this is amazing!
I absolutely cannot wait for Caraval by Stephanie Garber! Also Frost Blood, ahh chapter 1 had my heart racing! But most of all I discovered Love and First Sight by Josh Sundquist! Thanks again for compiling this wonderful list and excerpts of Fall/Winter YA reads!

Buzz Books was an excellent tool in order to know a Little bit more about the upcoming books in the YA and middle grade genre. There were some books that I am really looking forward to read. And obviously when the next edition of the Buzz Books Young Adult came out I will want to pick up.

This book offers readers the opportunity to see some of the hottest titles being published in the YA genre for the Fall/Winter seasons. And, while I was not pleased to see some tropes still being published (can we please just stop with the love triangles and the dystopian books now? It'd be greatly appreciated.), there definitely are some great books coming up!

I especially liked that this book gives the reader an opportunity to sample a variety of genres. While every genre may not be your favorite to read, you're bound to find something good to sample in this book.

A few that I'm personally looking forward to are Three Dark Crowns, The Hawkweed Prophecy, and A Shadow Bright and Burning. Yes, I am unashamed to admit that I have a favorite genre, but there's a ton of great literature coming out this fall to look forward too!

I requested this title as I'd already heard a bit about 'Replica' and was keen to take a look. The idea still intrigues me but I don't feel I have had enough of a taste of the novel based on what I read of the excerpt. I am still keen though to buy the novel and read it for myself when it is released. I normally read e-books these days but for 'Replica', I think I will buy a hard copy just so I can get more enjoyment out the unique reading experience of this novel (cover to cover, or interchanging character chapters). I wasn't particularly interested in the rest of the novels but read them regardless. I enjoyed 'The Female of the Species', as well as 'Love and First Sight', even though they're not my favourite genres. Both included an interesting view of the world. 'Frazzled' reminded me of Anh Do's series 'Weirdo', with its illustrations and look at a quirky family. 'Frazzled' is obviously targeting slightly older readers but there were some distinct connections there. I will recommend some of these titles for our school library.

Buzz Books Young Adult List is a holy grail for bloggers like myself, it means I can keep up to date with upcoming releases that are very anticipated. It is also super helpful for any book lover as well because it also means I can keep up to date with future releases, I love how it incorporates the cover (if it has been released), a summery and a snippet from the book so I can read a section and see if it would be for me. I particularly enjoyed this Fall/Winter release and found numerous books I am anticipating to be released.

It's an even greater tool for those that live outside of the USA, I myself live in the UK therefore we tend to have different release dates so I can keep up to date with US releases. Definitely going to be requesting more of these in the future so I can up to date with everything new!

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!

Once again Buzz Books gets me excited for upcoming titles! It's such a great guide for upcoming releases, and I love that there's one convenient place in which I can go and see all the kinds of awesomeness that will be coming to my Kindle in the fall. This is a great book for those who don't want to just one-click and regret it. I highly recommend checking out the books in Book Buzz and reading the excerpts!

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.

I love these little packets of book info. I'm super excited for Caraval and Three Dark Crowns. Definitely on my must read list.

This sampler has once again proved that we'll have an amazing fall/winter book season this year! So many wonderful titles from both well-known authors and new-comers, so many promising stories. At least half of the books introduced are going to my to-read list, so thanks for the sneak peek.

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!

This is a great look into the upcoming YA releases! I love to be able to clue our young readers at the library in to what's coming up that might interest them. I was personally interested in about a half of the titles, and was happy to see a very diverse selection highlighted here. I can't believe I'm just discovering these Buzz Books, they are great and look forward to seeing future publications.

I found several books that I'm interested in reading within these pages- most notably Caraval and Frostblood, the latter being one I hadn't known about before, which is a shame because it sounds incredibly awesome.

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.

The book is very helpful in deciding different books that I would like to further investigate, and then ultimately deciding whether or not I will add it to my classroom library and recommend to my students. Both the summary and the excerpt for each book are enough to judge.

This is once again an absolutely amazing compilation of excerpts of up and coming YA novels. I was thrilled to read them and ended up packing more and more books on my reading wish list.

This was another great book of excerpts. It included mostly books that I hadn't heard of. Several of the excerpts were really interesting and I look forward to reading the full books. My biggest decision will be deciding which books to request first.

I loved getting a look at the new releases that will be coming out later this year. The excerpts really let you get into each book, until you almost forget it's an excerpt, not the actual book. If you're interested in keeping up with the book world and knowing before everyone else what's upcoming, definitely pick this up. For this edition, I'm most excited for Three Dark Crowns and Girl in Pieces, but I also am interested in Frostblood, The Forgetting, A Shadow Bright and Burning, and The Hundred Lies of Lizzie Lovett. I can't wait to pick them up!

I received this ebook from NetGalley in exchange for my honest review.

I would totally recommended Buzz Books! This is the first time I pick up one of these books and honestly I think its worth it. You get excerpts from top upcoming reads. It got me really excited from some of my highly anticipated and I even discovered ones that I otherwise won't have heard from like Kids of Appetite and The Thousandth Floor. If you're interested in all the top anticipated reads that are coming up, I'd say this is a must.

Another great selection of excerpts from leading and debut authors. I appreciate the diversity in genres including reader's favorites like contemporary and fantasy. I've added quite a few books onto my TBR and wish list thanks to this Buzz Books edition.

Definitely added some books to my To-Read list for 2016. A great variety included here. Thank you Buzz Books!

I love being able to read samples and see the exciting new reads coming out this Fall/Winter!

I love these previews. It's enough to really get into the book and let you figure if it something you want to persue or not!

As always, I've enjoyed this publication. There are definitely some titles that I would really like to read at some point!

This is my first time reading something like this and I must say, it's really helpful! I realized that I rely heavily on the cover of a book and the summary on the back to decide whether I read a book or not. Many of the books in here were books I would skip in my usual routine. And what a waste would that be! Reading the first chapters is definitely a really useful tool to hook readers in and most of them were really strong first chapters. Now I have a lot of books to look forward to.

Yeah! The new Buzz Books collections are always something I'm looking forward to. If you enjoy browsing new books, I'm sure you'll like this Buzz Books.

This particular collection I quite enjoyed. There are some very interesting books in the batch and some very lovely covers I really loved. However, what I enjoyed best was the fact that I noticed it became easier for me to resist requesting way too many books.

Does this mean I'm at the start of the road to recovery?

Thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for providing me with a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review!

I love this! There are some great new books coming out this fall/winter that I am now extremely excited for! I love that this gives us all a chance to preview some of the upcoming projects! I will be reading this every season!!!

This was a neat preview of upcoming releases from new and favorite authors.

I love having the ability to see upcoming releases. Buzz Books collections help me identify titles for future purchase.

A great way to get anyone all excited to read books to come! I love these compilations.

This is such a fantastic resource to start looking at books I'd like to request for review and even pre-order for my ever expanding bookshelves. I wish I'd realized how useful these guides were before this year. It may have helped me narrow my focus a bit at BEA last year (2015).

This is the first of these books that I have gotten and it helped me pick some new books that I really want to read! Thanks, NetGalley!

This is why I don't read samplers. I'd been waiting so anxiously for some of these, I was desperate for even a chapter or two. But now that I've had a glimpse of the stories (well, mostly just Replica), I want them even more. Exciting collection of stories, some from authors I hadn't heard of before but now would be willing to try out.

I really enjoyed the majority of the chapter samplers in this book. Definitely a great way to gather interest in upcoming novels. I personally will be preordering a few titles.

This book was so much fun to read. I love getting samples of books to read. I have found it to be quite helpful in what books I want to read or not read. Usually though I find myself wanting to read all of them!

Thank you much for this awesome preview(s)

Love getting to see excerpts from so many books -- definitely excited for what's to come. Thanks for this opportunity!

I love sneak peeks of upcoming YA titles, so this is absolutely perfect for me. Here's a list of the novels with my initial thoughts:

KIDS OF APPETITE (David Arnold): A tragicomedy full of beautifully incorporated anaphora, snappy dialogue, and a tantalizing mystery.

FROSTBLOOD (Elly Blake): A fantasy with chillingly (haha, get it?) gorgeous world-building.

THREE DARK CROWNS (Kendare Blake): A dangerously compelling fantasy from the author of Anna Dressed in Blood.

As always, these are fantastic! I teach secondary school English and love being able to give my students tip offs for what to read!

Great taster of up and coming YA novels. There are now a number of upcoming releases that I have added to our "books to buy" list.

I love this book! I really enjoy the opportunity to review books to determine if I really will enjoy reading them. I really like the fact that it allows you to read the first few pages so you really get a feel if the book is right for you or not. Thanks so much for sharing this great resource!!!

I look forward to every new version of this sampler. It's the perfect way to get a taste of what's to come. I use this sampler to create a pre-order form for my store and to provide suggestions to our Young Adult readers.

This book is amazingly helpful. It is great to be able to go to one place and see all the exciting, upcoming young adult books for next season, especially as a blogger. I usually try hard to keep up with new books and what is coming out as well as which ones I would like to review, so it is really nice to have this book as a head start. I enjoyed looking at the titles featured in this book along with their excerpts. I will definitely be reading each new Buzz Books edition that comes out. Thank you.

Yay for another sneak peek into what's up and coming. Thank you. I look forward to sharing these with my readers, as well as reading some of them upon release.

I love these books and the sneak peak at what's to come in the Fall/Winter for books. I always add tons of books to my reading list. It's one of my go-to books for what to read.

Every time I read Buzz Books I immediately wish I was clever enough to invent a time machine because I just cannot wait for some of the titles here!

Every year I look forward to making new author/book discoveries while browsing through Buzz Books. The excerpts are a great way to get a feel for an author's writing while the background information helps point bloggers and reviews in the right direction as far as requests go. Informative and fun - always a great help!

Great to preview upcoming YA books. Especially looking forward to Three Dark Crowns by Kendare Blake.

So many great books coming out my bookish mind is on overload. This issue always provides the most intriguing reads!

I really like these buzz books guides! They let me know what books are coming out. Keep them coming because I will keep reading them!

Highly recommend this for any high school teacher and for any livrary. So much easier for a parent or teacher to read an excerpt from a book to decide whether or not to recommend to a young adult. Also makes it easier for a reader to decide which books to read.

Got some great info from this. Thanks! Picked up some of the ARCs at ALA!

Anyone who wants the opportunity to get a sneak peek at fabulous YA books should read this! You're pretty much guaranteed to walk away with a list of new books you'll want to read.

Thanks to NetGalley and Publishers Lunch for the arc of Buzz Books 2016: Young Adult Fall/Winter. This is my first time reading Buzz Books and I think it is a wonderful way, and helpful as a librarian, to get a taste of what will be published soon. Twenty books are spotlighted in this sampler and my favorites are The Hawkweed Prophecy by Irena Brignull, A Shadow Bright and Burning by Jessica Cluess, and Caraval by Stephanie Garber. Can't wait to read the full versions!

I always love these collections!

This is incredibly helpful for knowing what to look out for in the publishing field. So many were added to my to be read list!

What a great resource! Just before I am about to attend a YA convention and discuss possible author events this comes along and I have lots to be excited about! Thanks so much for providing this so I can map trends, plan book buys and events.

I really like this, it's a great way to find new books to read, and I've added a lot of new books to my TBR-list. I can't wait to read the full books!

Always love having these to try out books and recommend to patrons!

Always a delight to read the latest Book Buzz and get ideas for reading wish list!

Love these previews - and the fact that a lot of these are linked after the preview. Thank you!

Stay ahead of the crowds so we seem to be on the know! Very nice resource for Readers Advisory.

This was a great tool to use to see what will be coming out for teens or young adult in the fall and some of these books I have placed orders for them for my libraries teen dept.

This book is a great way to learn about upcoming releases. I haven't read anything from all of these authors except Lauren Oliver, but now I"m interested in checking out their other books. I'm especially excited about Frostblood by Ella Blake, Three Dark Crowns by Kendare Blake, The Hawkweed Prophecy by Irena Brignull, and A Shadow Bright and Burning by Jessica Cluess. They all had very interesting characters and plots and the writing styles were really captivating.
Most of the books were interesting and it was few that didn't seem appealing, even if it is just the first chapter/s, but they were mostly a matter of taste. I don't keep up with new releases much, but now I have books to anticipate so it'll be exciting when the full titles are released and I can finally read the whole stories.

Buzz Books is a great way to find out about upcoming book releases! Not only do they provide a cover and author summary, you also get to read a sample. I am most excited for Replica and Three Dark Crowns!

A well curated selection of young adult novels to look out for this year and next. I read this collection front to cover, skimming through only one excerpt and skipping another. With a brief summary and lengthy excerpt of each book featured, this collection offers just enough to get you hooked in the story. Occasionally, a character from this anthology will cross my mind, and I wonder what happened to her, want to keep reading that book — and then realize that book isn't out yet. The collection featured more fantasy than I'm used to, but rather than a disappointment it was a good reminder to expand my genres.

I found this to be a very useful tool for filtering books before I even request any from NetGalley. I read the excerpts and then requested 2 books through the direct links. As a librarian, I only recommend books I have read AND liked, and this is a sure fire way of locating them.

SO excited for some of these titles! Definitely putting in a request to purchase for several at our library. Fall/winter 2016 here we come!

Just as nice as the one for other books (if I write adult books, it gives a totally different message!), it is just a bit less interesting for me because I'm not so much into ya books. It still gives me an approach, some names to look at or titles to check. It must be needed by school libraries. The teenagers will use word of mouth among themselves.
A great anthology anyway.

There are so many exciting Fall/ Winter titles in this! I hadn't heard of 'Kids of Appetite' previously but I'm really looking forward to this now!

Great! I love seeing the covers, getting a summary and then an excerpt. Really helpful for future reader's advisory, plus I found a couple of books I'm looking forward to reading.

I love that we can have a look at the books that are going to be released soon. My favourites among the 20 titles are The Hawkweed Prophecy, The Forgetting, The Continent, Replica, and The Hundred Lies of Lizzie Lovett. Thank you so much for releasing the sampler. Love Buzz Books!

This was a great way to find new titles to add to my reading list! Having the summaries and excepts was so helpful, and the variety of books included gave me insight into some upcoming books in genres I wouldn't always be paying attention to.

Wow! This connected me with so many books that I otherwise wouldn't have even considered. I'm even planning on picking up a couple that are a little out of my comfort genres. Thanks so much for putting this together!

I've read several titles in the Buzz Books series, which invite readers to sample excerpts from upcoming novels, and they never disappoint. Buzz Books 2016: Young Adult Fall/Winter, published by Publishers Lunch, is no exception. Many of the stories previewed here are also suitable for tweens and middle grade readers, and they range from fantasy to romance, and humor to mystery, and more. Highly recommended for book lovers who can't wait. Use it to make a shopping list for your fall gotta-have titles, or a holiday list for gift-giving. I'll be watching for The Hawkwood Prophecy, by Irena Brignull, and Frazzled, a humorous tale by Booki Vivant.

Lots of great titles I'm looking forward to reading and sharing with my classes!

I absolutely need a buzz book like this each and every year! It is so helpful in learning about so many new and upcoming books that might have missed my radar from the bigger buzz creators! This years buzz has helped us create blog posts for Waiting on Wednesday and adding so many books to our netgalley shelves as well as our pre-orders!

I love the Buzz Books previews! It is so helpful to read a chapter or two of some of the most buzzed about books to help decide which will be my next read, which to pick up at book conferences and which to request.

Such a huge help for me as a mom to be able to read samples of books coming up for my teens to read. It's a huge help to be able to sample books before your kids invest in buying them. My teens list of want to reads has grown too after looking through this book.

This was a great collection of upcoming releases in YA! I enjoyed many of these excerpts and I'm especially excited about Three Dark Crowns by Kendare Blake and Replica by Lauren Oliver. There were many books that I either wouldn't have known about or may not have become interested in had I not read this collection. While I may not spend my own money on a collection of excerpts, I'm glad this introduced me to many upcoming releases. I can't wait to read so many of these!

I love the Buzz Books previews. The excerpts are long enough to give me a feeling about the author's style and the story line. I mainly use the Buzz Books to choose which books I'd like to read in the upcoming season and place them on hold at the library. I also use them to request books for purchase.

So glad these are available!

It's my first time to read a Buzz Books and it's a good way in attracting reviewers to review and read a certain book. I did not read all the stories because I RARELY read fantasy. I can say that most of the excerpt I've read belongs to a good book. Though they didn't give much so I really do not know. Here are the excerpts I read:
*Kid's of Appetite by David Arnold
*Something in Between by Melissa de la Cruz - I think the author is Filipino because the characters are. I like how she showed the Filipino culture which I rarely find in novels.
*Girl In Pieces by Kathleen Glasgow - my impression is that this is a bit eerie, but I think I'll like it.
*Love at First Sight by Josh Sandquist - I LOVE THIS!! Can I have a book please. Lol
*Frazzled: Everyday Disasters and Impending Doom by Booki Vivat - This is like a graphic novel and it's so cuuuute

As per usual Buzz Books delivers a delightful first glance at some of the most anticipated reads of the upcoming seasons, giving librarians, educators, and readers themselves a taste of what to expect in the approaching months. Buzz Books is a fantastic resource and has been a great asset to me as a reader and book reviewer, allowing me to navigate upcoming options and choose the books most suited to my tastes.

I'm so excited for all of these books. Thanks Buzz Books!

These little snippets really are a great way to get to know what's coming up.
*Thumbs up*

I received this previewing copy through Netgalley.

This is the first year I actually got to request this very helpful book. If you're a reviewer, I highly suggest checking this book out.

This book is quite helpful. Not only does it give you some insight on the books but it also provided links with even more information about the books.

All the information is a very organized and had a wide variety of books that can appeal to anyones interests. Everyone should check this out. Especially bloggers.

This an awesome compilation of novels. I got the chance to read many of the novels I'm excited for and even ones I didn't know much about. This makes it easy to really get a feel for those upcoming releases. Glad I read this because I'm super excited for all the fall and winter ya releases.

As a romance blogger, I enjoy variety in my reads and YA is a sub-genre that I often go to for a change of pace. However, while I'm in the know at all times of upcoming noteworthy romance reads, YA is a subject that I am constantly looking for more information on. The Buzz Books 2016: Young Adult Fall/Winter was the perfect source for information on great upcoming YA titles that I plan to mix into my reading to spice up the variety this Fall/Winter!

Moreover, in addition, to my romance blogging, I also coordinate two middle school age book clubs--so I'm always looking for interesting reads to keep the book club members engaged and wanting more of book club. I also found a few great books that I'm going to propose to our book members as upcoming book club selections.

Thank you for this thoughtful and informative guide!

A great way to get a sneak peak at books. As a library director, this is a great resource.

Excellent insight in what to be excited about this autumn and winter!

This is a perfect resource for librarians! It offers a plethora of new YA book excerpts. The volume gives plenty of information that is so useful for planning and purchasing for YA libraries.

Like the general fall/winter guide, this is a huge help and great reference!

I loved getting glimpses into upcoming releases. I look forward to reading the full books when they are available.

I like the fact that you can see the upcoming books and that you can read some excerpts of it. It helps a lot if you are doubting about whether or not you will like the book.

I am very excited for the upcoming releases of the ya books this fall! This was a great collection. I would recommend anyone to read a few excerpts.

i loved all the new and upcoming books that you guys have for us to pick from. I really like the chance to read a sample of each one and have the chance to possibly review it and share it with my followers on my blog.

I always love being able to get previews of upcoming books, a little taste particularly for new to me authors. To see if you'll like their style of writing and how they move on the story. So this is always great

First time I read Buzz Books, I had the chance to read it thanks to NetGalley. It is amazing to find so many fantastic suggetions about new oncoming books! My wishlist and TBR pile is growing faster now, so the pleasure to read and share my opinions on books and writers.
I think this is a special tool for librarians and bookstores, and helps to keeps updates on some of the books that for sure will be some of the best sellers of the new season!

Great previews included in this title! As usual, this introduced me to some great upcoming novels.

This collection of up and coming books showcase some of the great young adult books coming this fall and winter. I highly recommend you check this out- I am definitely reading several of these when they are released!

Many thanks, wonderful excerpts. I love all your suggestions! Many thanks in the past I didn't know where to discover the latest in terms of newest books. I won't miss to follow you always!

I love getting a once over on these every season. These Buzz reviews always help me to know what to keep an eye out for both on Net Galley and in my own bookstores. This fall is looking amazing and I'm definitely looking forward to Blake's Frost Blood, Chee's The Reader, Cluess' A Bright Shadow Burning, Garber's Caraval, Oliver's Replica, and Porter's Vessa in the Night.

This collection included some of my favorite authors as well as some that are new to me. I've already bought many of these books to read and to lend to my students. Thanks!

I love this collection of excerpts - I think the idea is brilliant, put a lot of samples together in hopes of catching the interest of readers. I'm reading this a bit late - I know some of the books have already been released, but I left with a much longer list of books that I'll be checking out when published. In particular, Traci Chee's "The Reader" and Stephanie Garber's "Caraval" seem right up my alley!

This was an invaluable resource! Sneaking peeks facilitates interest and opportunity for educators, Young Adults and parents to be selective and not waste time forcing commitment to the end of a book to decide if it's worthy of reading! I look forward to reading a resource like this again! Thanks for sharing it Netgalley!

A nice selection of books, some Ilike the look of more than others. I'm particularly looking forward to Frostblood by Elly Blake, I just want to know more!

I love these previews. They're an amazing way to try a bunch of books that are upcoming!

A great assortment of excerpt from books which have already been released, or are yet to be released. All of the featured books vary greatly from each other, and I was glad to have downloaded this preview because I learned about some books which I may not have otherwise heard about.

Thank you to Netgalley and the Publishers for sending me a digital ARC. I have never read "Buzz Books" before but I will try to get as many as I can from here on out. The books coming out this Fall and Winter and amazing! There were so many original ideas and beautiful worlds that I am nearly overwhelmed. I am most excited about "The Continent" by Keira Drake and "Three Dark Crowns" by Kendare Blake but there are so many more to look forward to beyond these two.

As a big reader I am always interested in what upcoming releases there are. I love compilations like this one where you are able to read the start of many popular books, as well as other books that you may not have heard of. I can not wait for the books in hear to be released as now that i have had a taste of some of these books i need more!

This book provided a great insight into what was being published in Young Adult and an excellent way to get a snapshot of what the titles were about and what might be of interest to us at the Library.

Buzz Books Young Adult is a collection of short snippets of highly anticipated young adult books coming out fall and winter of this year. It was really amazing to be able to read some of the books on my "Want to Read" list to see if they really are for me. I also really love that Buzz Books has so many different categories, they don't just do Young Adult. I highly recommend finding your favorite genre of books and checking to see if they have a version for it. I really appreciate books like this that help me discover new books and allow me to read parts of books I already had on my radar. I added so many of the books in this one onto my list and I'm really grateful I was able to read this. I highly recommend checking out their other books.

I really enjoyed this book. It gives anyone a chance to review several books that you might never pick up--now is the time to go buy a bunch of them. I recommend this book.

As always, I enjoy the sneak peaks of upcoming YA books. I typically add books that I wouldn't have added otherwise to my purchase list.

Really useful for any reviewer or blogger interested in upcoming YA fiction. A great selection!

This is a nice sampler of upcoming book releases. I missed BEA this year so this was helpful. I'm excited for these new titles!

If you're anything like me, you are always on the lookout for the next great book. Sometimes finding what to read next is almost as much fun as actually reading the book once I've discovered it. Now if you're also like me, you probably already have too many books on your TBR (real or virtual) so be warned, Buzz Books 2016: Young Adult Fall/Winter can be dangerous because it will introduce you to some great titles that you will be compelled to add to that ever-growing TBR list, go out and buy or checkout from your local library.

This fifth edition of Buzz Books 2016: Young Adult Fall/Winter provides the reader with excerpts from 20 new Young Adult titles, some of which might be on your radar already; others completely new to you. Of the 20, the following caught my eye and have been added to my TBR list:

Something in Between by Melissa de la Cruz; published by Harlequin Teen (September 27, 2016); ISBN 9780373212385

Caraval by Stephanie Garber; published by Flatiron Books (January 10, 2017); ISBN 9781250095251

Thank you to NetGalley and Publishers Lunch Buzz Books for providing me a digital copy in return for an honest, unbiased review.

As per usual this is a fantastic and helpful resource to see the coming YA titles!

I was really pleased to see the fall/winter 2016 line-up...so many amazing options. It was presented really nicely, clean, easy to navigate and with just enough tease to make me want to read more than just the first few pages of each book. Can't wait to get reading them!

Helpful excerpts on upcoming books. Found lots of future reads!

Holy Moly. How awesome is this book!? This was my first Buzz Book, and I’m so glad I gave it a try. Once I opened it, I realized I already had the majority of these books on my TBR list. It was hard to only read excerpts on some of these though and totally wish I had the full copies to continue the stories. However, given the opportunity to read these excerpts, I will definitely be ordering some of these very soon.

I received a copy of this book through NetGalley for an honest opinion.

Another great sampler. I enjoyed it a lot. I recommend it if you are looking for something new to read.

Brilliant idea and the perfect way to entice new readers with upcoming books!

Blurbs! I love blurbs because I want to know more about the tone and style of a book, but if I just open it up to read a few chapters I tend to get sucked in, and as always, my to-read list is longer than the hours in a day. Books like this make me a better reader's advisor.

Grateful for the glimpse into future stories! Quite a few of the titles are already on my must-read list, but I added a few more after reading these excerpts. I'm looking forward to these upcoming releases!

I enjoyed seeing the new YA books coming out! I've read most of them already and you were right in recomending them. Thanks!

Some very strong excerpts this time around! I was convinced to buy a few titles featured as a result of the excerpts.

Can`t wait to read them all!
I started reading experts with my expectations being not JUST high, but literally OFF THE CHARTS! (do you see those charts? Yes? Now imagine me hovering right above them) and you know, when that happens, there's a good chance those expectations won't be met, something might be lacking, something might not be quite right cause who could possibly make one's imagination come true in the most wholesome of ways, right? Well... that's really not the case at all.

Great look at the books on the horizon and to help plan ahead in book reviews for our blog! THank you!

This preview offered an awesome mix of highly-anticipated known authors with new titles, and debut voices. Sampling excerpts helps me decide what I'll be purchasing, and lets me prepare some Reader's Advisory ideas before the books hit my library shelves. I SO appreciate these Buzz Books samplers!

Great, this book gave me so much to look forward to reading, thank you !

Buzz Books are a great help for collection development!

As usual, a great look into what's to come for YA. It got me excited for lots of books. Can't wait to get my hands on them!

Bit late, but always appreciate being able to see this. Helps make the to buy and wish lists for my school!

Great for getting to know some super popular and a little less popular 2016/2017 releases!!!

This book is a great way to get a sense of upcoming releases, should be available for all genres.

I love these publications and read them religiously. There is no better source to keep me apprised of upcoming releases. Thank you!

Loved this collection of YA (with one middle grade) excerpts.

My favourites were Three Dark Crowns, Something In Between, One Half From the East, The Thousandth Floor, Replica and Love & First Sight but I enjoyed a large majority of them, some of which I would have never heard of or considered without this sampler.
