I surprised myself in 2023 and did great! Technically I listened to 46 (my goal was 12) but one wasn’t on Goodreads because it was a special one-off from the author for Halloween.
Kimberly
That is awesome!
Mary
Not as many as I would have liked. Working on my Nurse Practitioner License so I am in school and working full-time. Trying to manage it all. Happy New Year! Thanks for all your hard work on this!

The Book Junkie Reads . . .
I absolutely love this challenge each year. This year I completed for the year 517 audiobooks. I had 33 new authors to me this year.
Virtual Voice audiobooks have hit the scene. I find they are not terrible but would never replace a human narrator. They were just above a text-to-speech eBook.
Kimberly
Amazing stats. I won’t support the AI audiobooks. I never got into the text-to-speech listening. I know some folks love it.
