Notice for Review Requests

I receive review requests weekly. However, my personal schedule is hectic and I no longer review actively. (I also manage another blog called The Toronto Cafe and Food Blog). I do read every request sent but I apologize in advance that I do not reply to them all.

If I do take on a request, I will forewarn that it may take some time before I can review it. I am now looking to review adult fiction and self-help books instead of young adult fiction because I have grown out of it. If you are to request a review for either adult fiction or self-help, I will more likely to give it a shot.

In the meantime, Stop, Drop, and Read! serves as an archive book review blog. When I have the time, I may post a review. Thank you for understanding.

Trailer Tuesday: A Field Guide to Surreal Botany by Two Cranes Press + Operation TBD 2009

Title: A Field Guide to Surreal Botany
Author: The many talented writers of Two Cranes Press
Description: Two Cranes Press presents A Field Guide to Surreal Botany, an anthology of fictional plant species that exist beyond the realm of the real, with contributions from Jay Lake, Eric Schaller, Darja Malcolm-Clarke, Ben Peek, Victoria Elisabeth Garcia, Mark Teppo, Vera Nazarian, and many, many others. Fully illustrated in gorgeous full-color by Janet Chui, the specimen entries are by turns witty, hilarious, and very strange.

You know, I have never heard of the word botany until I saw this trailer that Eric from Living Jacket introduced to me from his site (they make awesome book trailers!). I absolutely love the graphics in this one! They are so enticing! Now I am curious to pick up this book. If you like what you see, you can order it at http://www.twocranespress.com/botany/.

And to spread a word about an amazing book cause at readergirlz, check out the trailer below!
