The Audiobook Challenge is back for 2023! I’ll be joining Caffeinated Reviewer and That’s What I’m Talking About the co-hosts for the 11th year of this challenge. I’m going for The 100 Club since I listened to well over that in 2022 and I continue to listen to more audiobooks than I read!
Challenge Details
- Runs January 1, 2023 – December 31, 2023. 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 2023 than you did in 2022.
- 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, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube or Tweet about the challenge.
- Updates plus a giveaway will be posted twice during the year. The first update will be July 2, 2023, and the last update will take place on December 30, 2023. You’ll have one week to link up and share your progress
- Use hashtag #2023AudiobookChallenge on social media to alert others of your listens and progress!

Good luck with the challenge! Do you get some of them from the library? 100 audiobooks must be expensive. I think, I can just about qualify for the marathoner category.

Thanks, Stargazer💜 It’s a combination of library and those received for audio review. Very few purchased. Hope you consider joining!
