Hello Audiophiles, it’s time to sign up for the 2025 Audiobook Challenge, hosted by Caffeinated Reviewer and That’s What I’m Talking About.

Choose your level and get those audiobooks ready. JIAM is back for June and we’ll be hosting a special month long challenge. Grab your earbuds, decide on your goals, and sign up below!

Use hashtag #2025AudiobookChallenge on social media to alert others to your listens and progress!

Current 2024 audio challengers, the last check-in will be December 28th. You’ll have 7 days to link up and share your results.

Challenge Details

  • Runs January 1, 2025 – December 31, 2025. 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 2025 than you did in 2024.
  • Books must be in audio format (CD, MP3, etc.)
  • All 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, etc. I recommend creating a shelf on Goodreads titled 2025 Audiobook Challenge. You can keep track and link the shelf.
  • Grab the button and do a quick post about the challenge to help spread the word. You can post on Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, BlueSky, Threads, Mastodon, your blog etc. about the challenge.
  • Updates plus a giveaway will be posted twice during the year. The first update will be July 5, 2025, and the last update will take place on December 27, 2025. You’ll have one week to link up and share your progress and enter giveaway

    I failed the 2024 challenge big time but definitely want to try again. I’m going for Weekend Warrier. Good luck everyone.

    Despite failing miserably in meeting my goal for 2024, I am signing up for the 2025 audio challenge. I am aiming for the binge listener level this time around.

    I’m excited to keep listening to lots of great audiobooks in 2025! Aiming to be an Over-Achiever in 2025. I barely made it to that level in 2024 with 76 books, so hoping to go for even more next year. 🙂

    I will enter Kimberly but won’t be able to write my post and link to yours before January! I am packed full with posts for my best reads of 2024! Or A solution would be to include it in a Sunday post!

    First timer here! I’m an enormous fan of audiobooks and look forward to seeing how things go for me on this front in 2025! I’ll be shooting for Over Achiever (Power Listener)!
