Audiobook-Challenge--2018
The Audiobook Challenge is back for 2018! Join Hot Listens and Caffeinated Reviewer for the 6th year of audiobook fun. Whether you are new to audiobooks or a junkie like me, I hope you join us for the 2018 Audiobook Challenge.

Listening has never been better! Thanks to the continued popularity of Audiobooks just about everything is being published on audio. Audiobooks are great for those times you want to read but can’t for some reason like driving, doing chores, working out, or just relaxing.

Challenge Details

  • Runs January 1, 2018 – December 31, 2018. 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 2018 than you did in 2017.
  • Books must be in audio format (CD, MP3, etc.)
  • ANY genres count.
  • 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 or Tweeting about the challenge.
  • Updates plus a giveaway will be posted twice during the year. The first update will be June 30, 2018, and the last update will take place on December 15, 2018.

    Sounds fun. I just started listening to books last year. This year I am going for Binge Reader.

  3. Jackie Briere

    I have 89 titles in my audible library and 10 more free audio listens from whisper sync on overdrive. I think I should join.

    I’m in again and going for Binge Listener. I ended last year at 33 audiobooks but I don’t want to put too much pressure on myself for 2018 lol.

    I am so participating in this one here!!! I have to do it every year because even though I didn’t do a good job with it this past year….2018 is a new year!!! And my library just got Hoopla for audiobooks and ebooks so I am so excited because they have really great selection.
