Getting Reviewed

I've been looking into getting reviewed. It seems very hard for an independent author/publisher to get reviews. The stigma of POD/self publishing seems to permeate most magazines and other major forms of reviews open to authors. I'm very uncomfortable with paying for reviews, but there seem to be so few options out there. The reviews for my first book Miss Mary Pennynickle's Tales of Torment for Toddlers were great. I plan on asking (begging?) reviewers on that site to review Connie Cobbler: Toy Detective for me. If anyone out there would like to review it for me as well, please let me know and I will gladly send you a copy.
