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.

Trailer Tuesday: Impossible by Nancy Werlin

Title: Impossible
Author: Nancy Werlin
Description: Lucy Scarborough is seventeen when she discovers that the women of her family have been cursed through the generations, forced to attempt three seemingly impossible tasks or to fall into madness upon their child’s birth. How can Lucy succeed when all of her ancestors have tried and failed? But Lucy is the first girl who won’t be alone as she tackles the list. She has her fiercely protective foster parents beside her. And she has Zach, whose strength amazes her more each day. Do they have enough love and resolve to overcome an age-old evil?



The concept is interesting but for some reason, I don't really think it is my type of book. For those who have read it, your opinions?

Haven't read this one yet, but I've heard so many wonderful things about it...it's sitting in my TBR pile as I write. :)

Awesome. Amazing. Book. :)

The ending was such a page turner.

The beginning...was pretty blah..but after around the mid term point...it got so addictive.

Hope you can read it! It's a great book...if you get past the beginning of course.

Hmm I haven't read the book, but I'm definitely interested now. The trailer is very beautiful and atmospheric. =D

Ooh, I hadn't seen this trailer before, which I really like, but I did read the book. I enjoyed it very much, but it's not my favorite Werlin title. Definitely worth a read.

If you're interested, the trailer for my debut in March is here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_u5g__oAAo

Nice blog!

It was okay.
It seemed kind of odd, I enjoyed reading it, but probably wouldn't read it again
