Reading challenge completed!



We're hardly even two and a half months into 2012 and I've already completed one of my reading goals for the year: to listen to 12 audio books.

I think I can blame my job...even though it keeps my hands busy, it also gives me ample time to listen to audio books. :)

Below is the list of what I've listened to, and that list will continue to grow throughout the year!

1) Abhorsen: Sabriel by Garth Nix, read by Tim Curry
2) Daughter of the Lioness: Trickster's Choice by Tamora Pierce, read by Trini Alvarado
3) Rocannon's World by Ursula K. le Guin, read by Stefan Rudnicki
4) Midnight Magic: Murder At Midnight by Avi, read by Jeff Woodman
5) Avalon High by Meg Cabot, read by Debra Wiseman
6) Moby-Dick by Herman Melville, read by Anthony Heald
7) The Moon is a Harsh Mistress by Robert A. Heinlein, read by Lloyd James
8) The Princess Bride by William Goldman, read by Rob Reiner
9) Princess Academy by Shannon Hale, performed by various readers
10) Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen, read by Nadia May
11) Starship Troopers by Robert A. Heinlein, read by Lloyd James
12) Beka Cooper: Bloodhound by Tamora Pierce, read by Susan Denaker

Look at you with your bad self ;-)

You know, I haven't checked to see if I had completed any of my reading goals? I should probably do that. Also, I'm thinking about give Beka Cooper another chance...

If you do try reading Beka Cooper again, let me know what you think. :)
