Will you miss Book Expo America? Here's the solution.

A plane ticket to New York City. Taxi and hotel costs. Meals and a ticket to the Javits Center. It really adds up.

But you don't have to worry. This year, you can sample the best of the writers showcased at Book Expo America without leaving home. And without spending a cent.

This year, for the first time, Publisher's Lunch has compiled an ebook that presents "over 30 meaty excerpts from books that will be featured at the convention and highly-touted fall releases of all kinds".

Want one? It's free. You'll find BEA Buzz Books on all ereader formats.

Here's a little more about what it contains:

Enjoy new work from Junot Díaz, Mark Helprin, Rhoda Janzen, Barbara Kingsolver, Dennis Lehane, J.R. Moehringer, Neil Young, and other well-known authors
Discover some of debut novelists the publishing world is already "buzzing" about, including Shani Boianjiu, Amanda Coplin, Peter Heller, Scott Hutchins, Kevin Powers, M.L. Stedman, and more.
Sample breakout books from experienced authors, and get a taste of what's coming from some of the biggest names in growing field of young adult fiction (including Libba Bray, Jessica Khoury, David Levithan, Sarah Maas, Jenny Han and Siobhan Vivian, Ned Vizzini, and others).
 Who knows? You might discover a new favorite author. And maybe someday, your name will be included.

  3. I've been to the Javits Center before, but that was in my pre-writing days. Wish I had known!

  5. I'm so glad someone thought of this idea. It's fantastic! I could see publishers putting out ebooks with sample chapters of their new lists to build excitement.

  6. I was blessed to have attended last year as a guest of another writer/publisher. What a wonderful experience. Can't say I made any real connections that have advanced my writing career but I met up with author Jonathan Mayberry whom I had the pleasure of meeting in person on a plane some months earlier. Got personal advice on how to keep at it. It was an experience seeing how the publishing world does promotion etc. I am planning to return maybe next year... oh to be asked by a publisher because of one of my books...wouldn't that be a hoot.
