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.

My Monday Mailbox (July 23/12): Swapping Edition

I went back through my archive and saw that I haven't made a MMM for almost a year! I have been receiving novels here and there throughout the year but it has been very sparse since I no longer review actively; which is why I don't do this meme anymore. However, this past Saturday I went to a swapping event where people traded in books, DVDs, and CDs! I brought in 32 picture books and came out exactly with 32 items. Since I do have a lot more books on hand, I will try to get through them some more!

Ooh nice, looks like you got some awesome things. I really like the song "Bye Bye Boyfriend" by FeFe Dobson. I think I have her first album.

And 17 Again is a great film!!
