Stop, Drop, and Read!: Taking Audiobooks Review Requests/Recommendations!

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.

Taking Audiobooks Review Requests/Recommendations!

Hello, hello! Long time no talk! So I want to do a quick update. Although I don't have the time to read like I once used to, I have plenty of time to listen to audio (I work part-time at a car assembly plant). I have about 16 hours of listening time a week. I only listen to a couple of podcasts (Runaway Thoughts and Dada Life) with so many songs I could just replay over and over on my iPod. Since my review blog has been dull for the past couple of years, I am willing to jumpstart by blog again with audiobook reviews. I am really new to the audiobook side of things so I would need some navigation.

I looked into Audible, however it seems like I have to input my credit card number, which is something I don't want to do. If anyone can recommend a great audiobook site where I can download my novels for free, let me know!

I am unsure how popular audiobooks are in the YA realm. Therefore, I will give flexibility with the genres of audiobooks I will take on (mystery, horror, etc). So yes, feel free to shoot me any audiobook requests (or recommendations!) starting now! :)

Kristen said...: I would check and see if your library has eaudiobooks - mine does and it's really helpful! I recommend any book narrated by Katherine Kellgren. She narrates the Bloody Jack books by L.A. Meyer as well as Maryrose Wood's Incorrigible Children of Ashton Place along with many others.; December 15, 2013 at 9:23 AM
Diana Dang said...: Thanks Kristen! I will see if I have the time to drop by the library for eaudiobooks. I never thought the library would carry any lol.; December 15, 2013 at 10:49 PM
Liviania said...: Try your library, as said before. Also, Audible has some free audiobooks even though you have to a have a credit card on file. Downpour has one free audiobook a month.

I recommend Chris Colfer's books - they aren't my favorite books, but he's great at voices.; December 16, 2013 at 12:19 PM
