Shari | 482 comments Finished The Lost Hours last night. I need to remember to read shorter books next read-a-thon. LOL! I would also like to check into listening to audio books. I've never "read" a book that way before. I'm thinking I could listen to them while working. I've talked to one person at my work who listens to books while she works. I will never read all the books on my TBR list unless I start doing audio books! Ha!

I have the same thoughts about choosing shorter books and/or audiobooks every time with any reading challenge haha. But I am still warming up to audiobooks. Somehow, I just can’t focus my attention all that well when listening unless it’s recorded really well, with good voice acting etc.

Betty | 233 comments I love middle grade books so I always focus on those during the Readathons, since they are usually shorter and tend to be much quicker reads for me.
