2021 Audiobook Challenge

The Audiobook Challenge is back for 2020! I’ll be joining Caffeinated Reviewer and That’s What I’m Talking About who is a new co-host for the 9th year of this challenge. I’m going for The 100 Club since I listened to more than that in 2020 and I listen to more audiobooks than I read these days!


Challenge Details

  • Runs January 1, 2021 – December 31, 2021. You can join at any time.
  • The goal is to find a new love for audios or to outdo yourself by listening to more audios in 2021 than you did in 2020.
  • Books must be in audio format (CD, MP3, etc.)
  • ANY genre counts.
  • Re-reads and crossovers from other reading challenges are allowed.
  • You do not have to be a book blogger to participate; you can track your progress on Goodreads, Facebook, LibraryThing, etc.
  • If you’re a blogger grab the button and do a quick post about the challenge to help spread the word. If you’re not a blogger you can help by posting on Facebook or Tweet about the challenge.
  • Updates plus a giveaway will be posted twice during the year. The first update will be July 2, 2021, and the last update will take place on December 30, 2021.
  • Use hashtag #2021AudiobookChallenge on social media to alert others of your listens and progress!

  5. This is the easiest if I was going to do challenges because I am always listening to audiobooks. I’m listening to one now! lol I track how many audios I read for my own information.

      1. I know. I did it for 2 years, maybe 3 but I just don’t want to have to link everything up. And since I already have the publishers so good to me I figure I don’t need the prizes.
