Audiobook Challenge 2016

The Book Nympho

I am attempting this level: 
  • Stenographer (can listen while multi-tasking) 10-15


Back by popular demand, Audiobook Challenge is back for 2016! Join The Book Nympho and Hot Listens for the 4th year of great audiobooks.
Audiobooks are great for those times you want to read but can’t for some reason like driving, doing chores, working out, or if you’re one of the lucky ones like me, listen to them at work.
I know some of you are thinking, audiobooks? Pass. I thought that once too. But when you find a great narrator they can make the story even better. There are some series I will only listen even if I can get the Arc I’ll wait until the audio is available because the narrator does such a great job bring the book to life.

reading challenge details:

  • Runs January 1, 2016 – December 31, 2016. 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 2016 than you did in 2015.
  • Books must be in audio format (CD, MP3, etc.)
  • ANY 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, Shelfari, Booklikes, Facebook, LibraryThing, etc.
  • If you’re a blogger grab the button (on the sidebar) and do a quick post about the challenge to help spread the word. If you’re not a blogger you can help by posting on Facebook or Tweeting about the challenge.

Happy 2016!

Well, here I am again.  Typing in my much neglected Blog.  School is just about over for me. I have one more week and then I will finally be a college graduate.

As you can see, for the past few years, this blog has suffered as I toiled through my studies, I'm going to post more often now.

I've decided to also widen the scope of this blog.  I'm not changing the title and it will still be about books and movies, but I will be adding other things as well.

I don't plan to post 7 days a week, but my goal is at least 10 posts a month.  Big dreams!
