This is a challenge that is hosted by Read, Sleep, Repeat. My goal was 15 ARCs, but I thought I might do more. Here is my final list. I completed this challenge of 15/15 read/listened to. I also read or listened to 14 other ARCs that were not on the original list, and 21 Children’s ARCs read to my grandchildren. Of the 29 novels, 14 were audiobooks.

I live alone, am retires and am not a big television watcher, so read or listen to a book a day. When I worked and my husband was alive, I read one or two a week, so I have been there too.

Carla,
How do you get audiobooks ARCS? By the way, you can do it. Writing all 15 reviews is the real challenge!

You are so right EziChi, writing the reviews is the hard part. I have over 15 children’s books that I have read to my grandkids that I have to write reviews about. You have to contact the companies and ask to be put on their list, sometimes you get on, other times they say no thanks.
