Yes well I have continued to increase my audio listening every year and this year is no different. I’m up to about 170 and will probably add in at least 2 more over the next couple days. I listen while doing most things. Thanks for hosting!

Ooops I am at 163. I will probably get to 165 I was looking at the wrong thing.

I am a Binge Listener and had a great year of listening. I am in awe of your tally Kimberley. Well done. Thanks for hosting and to Hot listens as well. Audiobooks – such a gift.
Lola
Thanks for hosting this challenge! This was my first year participating and my first full year of listening to audiobooks. I managed to listen to 15 audiobooks, which was more than I had expected. I go for a level higher next year 🙂

Looks like the link up and the contest ends before the end of the year. Fortunately, I’m posting mine before the deadline, but any chance you’d extend it to the last day of the year to catch everyone? (I usually only post my wrap ups on the 31st of December.
Kimberly
Yes Mark, i hosted the year end giveaway last year and kept it open until the 1st of January and will do the same next year. I typically do my wrap ups on the last day as well. I will speak to cohost.
Rachel
Congratulations on exceeding your goal, Kimberly and thanks for hosting! 🙂

Forgot to say I completed my Marathoner Goal of 50+ with 86 as of today. Should have a few more by the end of the year.
Jen T
Nice work! I’m at 72 now, and should finish another 3 by the end of 2019! That’s 10 more than my goal of 65.
Lindsi
116?? Nice!! I’m planning on doing my post for this later in the week, and cannot wait to link up! I know the email said you guys were doing it today, so I hope it’s okay that mine is a little later. 🙂
Lindsi @ Do You Dog-ear? ☃?
Kimberly
No worries. You have until the end of the month.
Lindsi
Hey!! I just checked my total, and it’s 116!! Hahaha.
Lindsi
Whoops! I was looking at the wrong group! My total is 42 right now. I knew there was no way I listened to as many as you!! 😉
Kimberly
Hey, 42 is pretty dang awesome!
Lorna
I think I signed up for Marathoner and I am listening to book 97 right now. I have no idea what I would link up. I did what you told me to do and just made a 2019 audio shelf on Good Reads. First challenge I’ve ever done.
Kimberly
Wahoo!! I am so glad you joined. You did awesome! I keep saying we need a new category for the 100 club!
Jennifer
I signed up for Socially Awkward (Don’t talk to me) 15-20 but made it to Marathoner (Look Ma No Hands) 50+. No surprise. LOL
Kimberly
Nope..no surprise. We really need a 100 club.
Sophia Rose
Way to go with 116 and counting, Kimberly! I hit my goal of 100 audios just yesterday. 🙂
