Julie’s 2025 JIAM Mini Challenge Update:
Sign up: Here I am declaring my intentions to join this challenge! Yay for June is Audiobook month!
I don’t know which challenge I will end up getting, because I am mostly not wanting to think ahead about what I will read. But probably, most likely, one of these:
- Love your library (the primary way I get through so many books is through Libby)
- Let there be Monsters (my primary genre)
- Going the Distance (12+ hours each )(I have some long ones on my Libby holds)
I know, ONE of these.
Here’s my main 2025 Audiobook Challenge shelf on Goodreads.
Challenge Completion Update:
- Ruthless Fae, Zodiac Academy #2; Length: 13 hrs and 10 mins; From Library; Let there be Monsters (Review here)
- A Court of Wings and Ruin (A Court of Thorns and Roses, #3); Length: 25 hours and 10 mins; From Library; Let there be Monsters (Review here)
- The Sirens; Let there be Monsters (Review here)
I completed the Let there be Monsters challenge topic because that’s just what I like to read. The third one wasn’t long enough and I had to purchase it because the library line was too long to make it to book club. I’ll be in the middle of another long library audio but won’t be finishing it in time to count for this challenge.
Lynn’s 2025 JIAM Mini Challenge Update:
Sign up: It’s not like I’m not already reading audio books. I might as well join a challenge!
Honestly, I have a low boredom threshold. I’m not likely to read 3 books in the same series or genre in a month. For this challenge, I’ll go with:
- Going the distance. 12 hours is nothing!
- Love your library. It’s also my primary way to get books.
Here’s my main 2025 Audiobook Challenge shelf on Goodreads.
Challenge Completion Update:
I completed the love your library challenge with 4 library books. But only one book I read was over 12 hours. Hilariously, it is really challenging to read books over 12 hours when all the on-hold library books become available at once. I guess one completed challenge and one not completed challenge is pretty good. (Read the reviews here)

I have to always seem to put audiobooks from the library back on hold because they do all become available at once it seems! lol. Great job on your challenges!
