The audiobook service libro.fm (a great alternative to Audible/Amazon that supports independent bookstores) has a yearlong audiobook challenge I just saw! I usually listen to about 20-30 audiobooks in a year, and this challenge has 24 prompts, so I think I’ll give it a try in parallel with (and overlapping) my other challenges.
Here’s the link to prompts:

If others are interested in joining, I’m willing to share a spreadsheet version that I am typing up tonight. We could even make listopias for the prompts where it would be helpful, if there’s enough interest.

Apologies for cross-posting with AtY!

I've divided the prompts into 15 that are 1 book each, and 9 that are other things. Some of these "others" are marketing for libro.fm, but I'm not thinking of them as necessary. Even if you use the library or Audible instead (which I will for at least half of these), you can still access libro.fm's playlists and suggestions for prompts.
