Notice for Review Requests

I have been receiving some review requests over the past few months. However, I have been quite busy with my personal and school life to continue actively reviewing novels. I do read every request that has been sent but I apologize in advance that I do not reply to them all. I have accumulated a pile I have yet to go through and I try to work with what I have instead rather than taking on more.

If I do take on a request, I will forewarn that it may take a couple of months before I get around to it.

In the meantime, Stop, Drop, and Read! serves as an archive book review blog. Once in awhile when I have time, a new review will go up.

Okay, my reviews may be slowed down for the next couple of weeks. Exams are coming up and I'm dying because I barely started studying. I will try to squeeze some more reading in between the time and hopefully keep myself tamed away from the computer. You can see the books I'm in the middle of on the sidebar under the Goodreads widget.

Thank you Diane for the Literacy Blogger Award over at The Book Resort! If I go back and count all the awards I have received, at least 9/10 are from you. Haha, thank you for being an awesome follower! =)

Contest Alert: Tomorrow is the last day to enter to win 1 of 5 copies of Hollywood Car Wash by Lori Culwell. Click here to enter before it's too late! I will announce winners on Wednesday (if I can)!
