At the start of this year, 2020, I was looking for a new audiobook challenge for the year. I was searching Facebook when I found the Listening Books 2020 Audiobook Challenge. I am now listening (and reading also - for a great book club) my December challenge, "A Christmas Carol" by Charles Dickens. You can check my blog post of November 30 for more about this month's challenge.
I also tried the Listening Challenge from AudioFile magazine in 2019.
So I was pondering the next challenge late last week looking for a new 2021 audiobook listening challenge.
I was happy to see a notification on FB this morning that Listening Books has posted a new challenge for 2021. It's different from 2020's but looks interesting and I think I will try it.
Now I don't belong to Listening Books, a UK Audiobook Lending Charity. They have audiobooks for children and adult members that have "illness, physical, or mental, disabilities that affects their ability to read the printed word."(https://www.listening-books.org.uk/).
When I decided to join this year I asked if it was OK to do so since I'm in the US, and also would not qualify for membership. They explained that they had opened it to the public on FB in the hopes of learning about new audiobooks from a wider public so that they might then research for their members and add to their lending library.
I really enjoyed their 2020 Audiobook Challenge.
