Julie Review Avatar Julie’s 2020 Audiobook Challenge:

2020 what are you? Let’s see how am I doing…

My goal:

  • Binge Listener (Why read when someone can do it for you) 20-30

 

I’m currently at 13 books (and one in progress). Definitely not making it to my goal. Shame shame.

 

Here’s my 2020 Audiobook Challenge shelf on Goodreads.

 Lynn’s 2020 Audiobook Challenge:

I had a good run on audiobooks while I was walking outside. And now that I’m back to commuting to the office, I’ve been listening to more books. But there was that long stretch in the middle where I didn’t listen to anything. Oh well!

My goal:

  • Binge Listener (Why read when someone can do it for you) 20-30

I completed 19 audio books this year out of the 57 books I read this year. I’d say that’s a pretty good percentage. I’m ok with not having reached my goal of 20-30 books given everything else that was going on this year!

I had some favorites ([easyazon_link identifier=”1524761338″ locale=”US” tag=”chapbrea05-20″]Ready Player Two[/easyazon_link], [easyazon_link identifier=”1534430997″ locale=”US” tag=”chapbrea05-20″]This is How You Lose the Time War[/easyazon_link], [easyazon_link identifier=”0062570617″ locale=”US” tag=”chapbrea05-20″]Dread Nation[/easyazon_link] come to mind) and some not favorites ([easyazon_link identifier=”B003IYI6T2″ locale=”US” tag=”chapbrea05-20″]The Ark[/easyazon_link] and [easyazon_link identifier=”0316273511″ locale=”US” tag=”chapbrea05-20″]Stalking Jack the Ripper[/easyazon_link] certainly). But audio books still remain strong in my life.

Here’s my 2020 Audiobook Challenge shelf.
