Join me and challenge yourself with these fun 2022 Reading Challenges!

2022 Audiobook Challenge

So easy to sign up for the 2022 Audiobook Challenge and loads of fun to participate! I get mine free through Overdrive at my local library and now also through the NetGalley audiobook shelf. There are two check-ins; one mid-year and one at the end to see how you did. Participants will have the chance to win prizes. I’m going for My Precious (I had my earbuds surgically implanted) 30+, the plus because I know I’ll have more than 30 but not likely 50 (the next level).
