Back to Basics Audiobook Style - Revisited!
February 1, 2019 through May 31, 2019


Hey, all you audiobook fans!

It's been quite a while since we've had an audiobook challenge! Everyone seemed to like this one the last time, so we're dusting it off and giving it another shot. The rules are simple. Just pick your level, then pick from the lists of genres and characteristics you want to use, and start listening! You are welcome to pick any features that appeal to you, and they can be listened to in any order. Features can be used multiple times, but only once within each genre, so the more genres you use, the more times you can use a given feature. There are no limits on length except for the few rules where it is specified. Rereads/relistens are allowed. You may read small portions of a book you use in this challenge, but in order for a book to qualify you must listen to at least 75% of it.
