Join me and challenge yourself with these fun 2024 Reading Challenges!

I’m excited to work on the challenges but really terrible at reporting the results–not only with the host (and I apologize for that) but for updating this page as well. For 2024, I’ll begin by sharing the logo and the link.

2024 Audiobook Challenge

So easy to sign up for the 2024 Audiobook Challenge and loads of fun to participate! I get mine free through Libby (formerly Overdrive) and Hoopla 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 Marathoner (again) (Look Ma No Hands) 50+.
