An Audiobook Challenge

J. Kaye is hosting an Audiobook Challenge, and since I love listening to audiobooks, and have listened to 23 audiobooks this year, I am signing up for this 2009 challenge, too!

Our goal is to listen to 12 audiobooks in 2009, and I'll update this post and list my books as I go.

1. A Wizard of Earthsea, by Ursula Le Guin (narrated by Rob Inglis)
2. The Audacity of Hope, by Barack Obama (narrated by himself)
3. Rumpole and the Penge Bungalow Mystery, by John Mortimer (narrated by Bill Wallis)
4. The Devil's Arithmetic, by Jane Yolen (narrated by Barbara Rosenblat)
5. The Uncommon Reader, by Alan Bennett (narrated by himself)
6. The Lost Painting: The Quest for a Caravaggio Masterpiece, by Jonathan Harr

I'm not going to join the challenge, but I just finished my 76th audio book for this year! I could not live without them.

J. Danger, sorry about your grueling commute, but I would hope that audiobooks help make it less miserable. I don't have very far to drive to and from work, but I always have a book going in the car.

Nan, you are inspirational with your audiobooks. I love you choices. Do you belong to Recorded Books, or do you get the mostly from your local library? I've wondered as I read your reviews.
