The Audiobook Challenge is back for 2024! 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 2023 and I continue to listen to more audiobooks than I read!
Challenge Details
- Runs January 1, 2024 – December 31, 2024. 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 2024 than you did in 2023.
- 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, etc. I recommend creating a shelf on Goodreads titled 2024 Audiobook Challenge. You can keep track and link the shelf.
- Grab the button and do a quick post about the challenge to help spread the word. You can post on Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube or X, Threads, Mastodon, your blog etc. about the challenge.
- Updates plus a giveaway will be posted twice during the year. The first update will be July 6, 2024, and the last update will take place on December 28, 2024.You’ll have one week to link up and share your progress and enter giveaway
- Use hashtag #2024AudiobookChallenge on social media to alert others of your listens and progress!

I always listen to at least 100 audiobooks a year, so didn’t participate in 2023. Now that they have two new achievement levels, I’m going to jump back in. Good luck to you with this one, although I don’t think it will be a problem for you, Jo.
