The Buzz On YA and More

January 26, 2015
By Michael Cader

We had a big launch on Friday for the latest editions of our free ebook samplers, BUZZ BOOKS 2015: Spring/Summer and BUZZ BOOKS 2015 Young Adult: Spring — with national press, thousands of downloads, and excited reviews from the fan base of passionate readers who look forward to these previews.

As a reminder, you can get the complete “trade versions” of Buzz and Buzz YA directly from our site as EPUB files, or if you prefer, both titles are “read now” downloads at NetGalley — and you can find each one on Edelweiss. Or to get the consumer version on any platform (and share with readers and fans), both Buzz and Buzz YA are featured right now in the iBooks Store, and easy to get on Kindle, Nook, Kobo and Google Play.

For the second time we have a separate edition featuring YA fiction (as well as some middle grade), reflecting the broad spectrum of today’s literature for younger readers. It includes pre-publication samples of new work from well-known bestselling authors including Sarah Dessen, David Levithan, Barry Lyga, Michael Buckley and Carrie Ryan. We feature nearly as many renowned middle-grade authors including Newbery winner Rebecca Stead, adult author Alice Hoffman, and Louis Sachar. You’ll get the first glimpse of highly-touted debuts, from anticipated books by Margo Rabb and Maria Dahvana Headley to You Tube star Paige McKenzie and author Alyssa Sheinmel’s The Haunting of Sunshine Girl (adapted from the web series of the same name and already in development as a film from the Weinstein Company) and Sabaa Tahir’s debut An Ember In the Ashes (already sold to Paramount Pictures in a major deal).

See what YA fans will be buzzing with anticipation about and prepare yourself for the coming season in both adult and YA discovery books with our latest free ebooks.
