Audiobook aThon

What is Audiobookathon? It's a two week long "readathon" created by @BkishPorcupine where readers listen to audiobooks! Guess who's a fan of these readathon!!!
One of my 2020 commitment was to read on my commute- to and from work. Honestly, sometimes I stay in the car to finish a section, especially if the plot is getting thick. Yes, this decision is usually why I'm late to work. Much like a physical book, I find myself saying one more chapter with audiobooks. The other great thing about leaning into listening to audiobooks, this format allows me to get more reading done. I can listen to a book a little faster than I can read so as long as the plot keeps my interest. While I can consume an audiobook a tadbit faster, you can still find me reading a 300+ novel in one sitting.
Enough about why I read/listen to audibooks more about the readatohon. My first recommendation is to check out the hosts announcement videos (listed below).
- Steph from Stephs Romance Book Talk
- Christa from Bookish Porcupine
- Zacary from Zac Tries to Read
- Kathy from Kathy Trithardt
- Alyssa from Alyssa’s Shelves
- Wulfie from The Starlight System
- Marci from The Bright Side Girl
Another recommendation is if you are on Twitter I think it might be helpful to follow the @audiobookathon account. Any readaothon with a Twitter handle means you can check updates and connect with other readers who are participating along with you.
The readathon will take place from March 8-21, 2020. Now here's how I plan to participate
1. I will be using the #audiobookathon to share my progress.
2. If you know me, then you know I avoid making TBRs. So, instead I made a tracker check off prompts I've completed. I plan to insert the book cover once I've completed the audiobook. I will share the trackers on Twitter and IG stories.
**Feel free to use the tracker and tag me so I can see your progress.
I really hope you participate in this reading challenge! And, I can't wait to see everyone's progress.
Happy Reading!
