Jocelin | 295 comments I am looking forward to 2019! Can't wait to read some great new books next year. Not sure if I will make 75 Books in 2019, but I will definitely be reading. To our moderators: Thank you for all you your support in 2018! You kept us focused and reading to tackle the stacks. Thank you for all that you do. Let's all have a great new year!

Yes! Audiobooks are so win! I really enjoy celebrity memoirs, especially comedians. Mindy Kaling, Any Poehler, Tina Fey, Ellen DeGeneres, Jim Gaffigan, Trevor Noah, Stephen Colbert, etc.

I read some of Amy Poehler's and it was pretty funny! I think it would be a good one to listen to.

I am totally loving them. I couldn't even imagine just reading them. The guy who reads them, does such a wonderful job with the voices. I can't wait to read/listen to the next one.

Jocelin | 295 comments Well......this year was a struggle to make it to my goal of 75 books. I only made it 1/3 of the way. I am very happy with the books that I did read. I think that 2020 will be a great year for books in general.
