The ninth Buzz Books edition evokes all the excitement of BEA with substantial excerpts from 40 of the most highly-touted books to be published this fall/winter. Our “digital convention” features such major authors as Amor Towles, Christina Baker Kline, T.C. Boyle, Ann Patchett, Maria Semple, Marisa Silver, and Andrew Gross. We showcase sparkling debuts from soon-to-become literary stars such as Emily Fridlund, Nathan Hill, Elan Mastai, and Stephanie Gangi. Fascinating memoirs and inspirational nonfiction include excerpts by bestselling author Elizabeth Lesser, New Yorker writer Lauren Collins, child star Mara Wilson, and renowned neurogeneticist Dr. Sharon Moalem.As always, there’s also a comprehensive preview from Publishers Lunch of more than 100 additional, noteworthy fall/winter books to have on your radar. Start reading the bestsellers of tomorrow to see why reviewers rave with comments like this: Buzz Books is a helpful tool for those who love to read but have little time to search out reviews and recommendations of the latest offerings. Much like trailers for upcoming films, Buzz Books whets your taste buds for your next read. Each edition gives you summaries, excerpts, and author biographies that make choosing your next book an easy pleasure. Issued twice a year, each volume gives you excerpts from debut and well-known writers in both fiction and non-fiction over a wide variety of genres.

Did you know that you can download the e-book versions of the Buzz Books for free?! Who said there's no such thing as a free lunch? *

Lola * They did: The phrase and the acronym are central to Robert Heinlein's 1966 science-fiction novel The Moon Is a Harsh Mistress, which helped popularize it. The free-market economist Milton Friedman also popularized the phrase by using it as the title of a 1975 book, and it is used in economics literature to describe opportunity cost. Campbell McConnell writes that the idea is "at the core of economics". But seriously, these are really free :) 8y
