The Audiobook Challenge is back for 2022! I’ll be joining Caffeinated Reviewer and That’s What I’m Talking About the co-hosts for the 10th year of this challenge. I’m going for The 100 Club since I listened to more than that in 2021 and I listen to more audiobooks than I read these days!
Challenge Details
- Runs January 1, 2022 – December 31, 2022. 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 2021.
- Books must be in audio format (CD, MP3, etc.)
- ANY genre counts.
- Re-reads and crossovers from other reading challenges are allowed.

Wow! That’s a ton of audios, Jo. Amazing. You’re really busting out with these challenges. I may try this one too because I always end up listening to them throughout the year. Fun! Thanks for sharing and good luck. 😃

Yes, I listen to more books these days than I read. Have trouble staying focused on eBooks, an outgrowth of the pandemic lockdown. It’s a really fun challenge and I hope you’ll consider it.

During the lockdown, I found it hard to concentrate except when I was listening to a book. Even I’m surprised at how many I’ve listened to this year! I’m slowing regaining ground with being able to read my eBooks again.

Woop! I’m going to be joining in again next year too, Jonetta. Although I haven’t written my post yet. I think I’ll aim for Over-Achiever as that’s what I’m headed for this year (if I can get those last few listens in)
