Overflowing in review books...I need help.. LOL
I'm still reading the same book. I'm in a reading rut. It's nothing against the book, my mind just has been elsewhere. Between my ears hurting and my computer problems, I just havent been reading as much. I have 5 books due in 3 days and there is no way I will get them done in time so I am going to be late. :( I think I over did it with all these books and need to cut back. But how do you cut back when you have 10 books and 9 more coming within a week!!! AHHHHHHH! Out of control I tell you!

No wonder you feel like you're in a rut, you're probably totally stressed that all of those books are waiting for you. :( Can you get an extension on your review deadline for some of them? That would at least give you some breathing room.
ReplyDeleteWell one of the sites I contacted already and I canceled the three more that are coming from them. The second site sends monthly packages and no matter if you're done with last month's books or not they send more. They're sending me 8 more books in one package! I just hate to contact them to ask for more time. I honestly don't think they will notice if I'm late so I'm trying not to let it stress me out. I'm sure they'd give me more time but with so many more books coming it's like I can never get on track! It's my own fault though for constantly asking for books when they're offered knowing I already have too much. LOL I just feel like I am bleeding out my eyeballs from so much reading sometimes.
ReplyDeleteI love your blog Kimberly! Come back and visit me often! :)
Okay, take a deep breathe, lol.
ReplyDeleteYou've been reviewing for a while, right? And this people trush you soI'm sure they won't mind if your reviews are a wee late but listen, DON'T STRESSED don't stress with a girl screaming at you not to? heheh anyway! seriously, try not to because that's only gonna make things worse. Just take your time and get it done. :)
Aww thanks Wendy! I know, I think if I calm down and don't think about having 19 books to review in a short amount of time that I may be able to do them. In some alternate universe this is of course...LOL
ReplyDeleteThat's 3 less, now you have to try not to request more until you get through most of what you have already. I know that's tough, especially when there is so much you'd love to read. :) The site that sends the monthly package, will you have the rest of the month to do those?
ReplyDeleteThank you, I'm enjoying yours too! :)
Two of the sites I review for are books I request and I can just not request any. The third site sends me a monthly package but they're actually combining two months into one so I think I have 6 weeks for every 4 books. So I guess it isn't that bad. I just go nuts when they send these emails offering books and ask for more then I can handle. LOL
ReplyDeleteOh and the fourth site is not as important. I might actually stop doing that one.

ReplyDeleteWhat's funny is after I canceled those three books, I ended up requesting one from a different site. LOL My explanation to myself is that it's romance and sounds like a quick easy read. LOL

ReplyDeleteDo you review for a site or do authors contact you through your blog for reviews? I just wondered. All my reviews are on the websites I review for but I wanted to make up a blog to show what I'm reading just for fun.
Reading is quite the addiction isn't it? :)
ReplyDeleteI do review for another site, but those reviews are only posted on that site like yours are. The reviews on my blog are books that I either requested from authors or publicists, or ones they've come to me and asked that I review. :)
Oh ok cool!
ReplyDeleteWow...cool! I need to look into doing reviews for other people at some point. I only do them for my blog and college newspaper. That keeps me pretty busy, though... :)
ReplyDeleteHI T.C. Sorry I didnt see your post till now. I think I need to set up my blog so I get the comments emailed to me. If you'd like to become a reviewer online, email me through my site and I'll tell you about some sites you can review for! :)
