Romance Audiobooks discussion

Started too many challenges and never got around to finishing them?

Well we have all experienced that. Join me in completing some of those series. List the series below and catch up to the latest book. It’s just that simple!

If it is one or two, it doesn’t matter. Even if you don't think you can get caught up, but want to make a dent, now is the time to try to catch-up!

Don't forget to come back and edit your post to reflect when you have completed each book.

I too am trying to read some classics. Just wanted to let you know that Nicholas Boulton narrated David Copperfield by Charles Dickens. I'm not the biggest Dickens fan but I loved it. Very worthwhile listen!

i saw the Richard Armitage is narrating a new dickens book when i was on audible today

Molly Harper's Half Moon Hollow series. I've always wanted to finish it.
- finished January 20th 2016

I have started another one of my series to finish up. I'll update my post.

since i only need a couple of books to finish it out - added the Guild Hunter series to my challenge goal

I read two more in the Maiden Lane series. One more to go till I'm caught up!

Catching up with Virgin River, read #18 My kind of Christmas and one more in Thunder Point series #8, A new hope. Both by Robyn Carr.
Adding #2 to The In Death series that I've been wanting to get back to, Glory in death. Loving this challenge!

I have a lot of series to get up-to-date on, but since I'm Danish I do have the problem that not all books in a series are available as audio.
Would it be ok if I picked some series where some would be listen and some would be read?

Louise, the main goal would be to listen to all of the books. Are there any of the series that have all audio available to you?

I didn't set a goal but I've finished one series and am up to date in three others!

Wow. That's good news, Jonetta. I have to make sure mark off the one or two books that I did listen to. LOL
