We wrapped up 2023 quietly at home. For 2023, I read/listened to 230 books, of those 139 were audiobooks. I managed 11/12 Library Love. We are expecting our first significant snowfall tonight into Tuesday with bitter cold temperatures. Stay Caffeinated.

I am in awe of the number of books you read/listen to, Kimberly. 😍
I’m not a book blogger but I am an editor, can I join the Sunday Post meme?

I think a quiet evening at home is the perfect way to end the year. 2023 was the year of the audiobook for me. SO many of my favorite books were audiobooks. I hope you’re having a great week!

Stay safe with all that incoming snow!
Mary Kirkland
It’s been in the 40’s and 50’s here but we hardly ever get snow. Keep warm.
vidya
i realized i am not good at maintaining stats at all, despite all the tools available.. this year, maybe?? but you have read a cool amount of books…
it has been pretty cold here as well in the bay area
Anne - Books of My Heart
You are doing great! I rely on audiobooks to keep me on track. I hope your storm isn’t too cold.
MarthaE
Looks like you had another good year of reading/listening.
I do hope you grab a book and huddle under some blankets to ward off the cold!
Happy Reading!
Jenni Elyse
I’m glad you had a nice and quiet NY. Even though I enjoy spending time with family or friends during the holiday, I really do love low-key celebrations. I hope you have a great week!
Lisa R. Howeler
We got snow this weekend and then it’s supposed to jump to 50 on Tuesday with freezing rain. Weird. That’s a ton of books. I’m back into audiobooks and really enjoying them.
Sophia Rose
Sounds like your year wrapped up great and nice job on the totals. Bundle up for that storm.
Have a good week, Kimberly!
Meezan
Happy New Year!! Have a great week. 🙂
Emma @ Words And Peace
Good luck with the snow. We got a couple of inches yesterday – Chicagoland
Jen at Introverted Reader
We were supposed to get ice here on Friday night but luckily it was only rain. Stay warm!
Cindy's Book Corner
We are also getting snow, but it’s not bitterly cold (thankfully!). I hope you are able to stay warm! Have a great week!

Happy New Year! New to the link-up.
That’s a lot of books that you read/listened to last year. =) I hope you have another great year of reading.
Nicole
You’ve reviewed some good books! I’m joining in for the first time too 🙂
Victoria Hamel
Happy New Year. We got our first stick-to-the-ground snow on Friday. Just a couple of inches. It looks like next weekend it’s going to get truly cold. Fortunately, I’ll have a three-day weekend and can stay home by the fire and do some reading and writing! Thanks for the info on Crazy As A Loon, I added it to my audible wish list. It looks really fun!
BonnieReadsAndWrites
Stay warm! I enjoy snow if I don’t have to drive in it. Have a wonderfully bookish new year!

We are supposed to be getting our first real snow on Monday through Wednesday! So hoping for a snow day on Tuesday!

Happy New Year Kimberly! Congratulations on a great year of reading.
I hope you stay snug and warm despite the weather.
Wishing you a happy reading week
Jessica @ a GREAT read
Wow! Congrats on your reading goals from last year! That’s awesome! We’re expecting the same kind of snow storm Monday night as well. I am very glad to be working from home as I would hate to try to battle traffic to get into work that day!
Nice new reads! These are new to me ones! The cover for Crazy as a Loon is making me chuckle with its unexpectedness! Hope you enjoy all the lovely new reads!
Here’s my StS
Have a GREAT day!

Wow that’s an awesome number of books and audiobooks you read in 2023. We’re getting some cold weather here as well, but no snow predicted so far. Have a great week and enjoy your new books!
Greg
Happy new Year!
Mislaid looks good. I think I’m going to start that series in 2024. I hear so many raves.
Stay warm!
Tessa
Happy New Year! And I thought my year of 200 books was a lot – Congratulations on such a wonderful reading year 🍾🥂
Gail
Happy to join the link-up – I’m now starting a regular Sunday books post. 230 books read is very impressive! I finished on 108. I don’t listen to audio books, but that’s an opportunity as I walk quite a lot and listen to podcasts.
Maree
Happy new year! Stay warm 🙂
Jill
We were supposed to get snow today, but got a very cold rain instead. Blah. Have a good week!
Lark @ The Bookwyrm's Hoard
What a great reading year you had! I hope you “weathered” the snowstorm all right. I was hoping for a little snow here, but alas, all we got was rain.
Happy New Year to you and your family! We saw the year out quietly, too, going to bed well before midnight. We greeted the new year by driving across the country for the first three days.
Laurel-Rain Snow
You had a great year! May this next one be just as fabulous. Enjoy the upcoming week.
Yvonne @ Socrates Book Reviews
You had a great reading year in 2023! Congrats. I hope 2024 is a great one too. I hope you don’t get too much snowfall! Stay warm.
Rachel @Waves of Fiction
You had a great year of reading! We had our first snow of the year here, too. Not a lot, but it’s cold!
Mark
Very impressive number of books. And audiobooks. Hope you survive the storm okay.
Haze @ The Book Haze
230 is a lot! That’s amazing! I only did about 90, and I didn’t keep track at the time, but I’m pretty sure at least half of them were audiobooks, probably more.
Taylor @ Taylor Fenner’s Bookish World
230 books is amazing! I think I ended up with 135 or 136 with 46 being audiobooks. It started snowing here yesterday and we’ve had maybe 5 inches. I’m ready for summer lol. Stay safe and stay warm!
