Wrap Up MBS 2022 Audiobook Challenge

WRAP - UP
MBS (Martha's Book Shelf) 2022 Audiobook Challenge 
 
2022 Audiobook Challenge
The 2022 Audiobook Challenge, hosted by Caffeinated Reviewer and That’s What I’m Talking About.

I COMPLETED This challenge well with 135 Audio books read out of a total of 144. Clearly, I favor listening to "reading".


I didn't sign up for this challenge the last few years but perhaps I should have. I have set my own goals though.
Here is my history of audio reading over the past six years:
2021 I listened to 113 books with the original goal only 64.
2020 I listened to 96 with the original goal of 75.
2019 I listened to 108 with the original goal of 75.
2018 Total Audio: 106.
I signed up for Marathon, 50 books in 2016 and 2017.
2017 I listened to 79 Audiobooks.
2016 I listened to 70 Audiobooks.

I am having more and more difficulty reading on the Kindle App. Listening goes much easier for me.
So for 2022 I am going for the high level "The 100 Club (Audiobook Addict) 100+".

I am working this into my Alphabet challenge too and already have many audio titles lined up.

Wrap Up MBS 2022 Reading GOALS

WRAP UP
MBS (Martha's Bookshelf) 2022 Reading GOALS

I have only signed up for one actual goal (Goodreads) and one actual challenge (Audiobook). The rest are just my own set goals. 
I didn't meet all goals but I was happy with those completed and overall happy with the reading year. I still would like to find a way to read more ebooks.

GOODREADS Goal: 125
COMPLETE - I exceeded the Goodreads Goal finishing 145.

TBR Goal: 90 Audio, ebook or print.
COMPLETE - TBR exceeded at 111 total.

AUDIOBOOK Goal: 100
I am joining the 2022 Audiobook Challenge hosted by Caffeinated Reviewer.
I have chosen the highest level - The 100 Club (Audiobook Addict) 100+
COMPLETE - I ended up reading almost all Audio for the year finishing 135.

NETGALLEY Goal: 10
I am having trouble with the ebooks so I will shoot for at least 10 in either children’s titles or audios. Most of these will be new since I only have 4 on the TBR shelf, one of which is a third read.
COMPLETE - NetGalley exceeded with 14.

AUTHOR Goal: 10
I did 14 in 2021 so I should be able to do 10. My concern is the slowness I have for ebooks so I have to hope for audios. I have two to start the year.
Not Completed - I only did 3. I just didn't get through the ebooks this year. I'd be glad to listen to audio!

NONFICTION Goal: 12
I like including this to get in nonfiction. Most likely the books will be TBR audiobooks.
Not Completed - I only finished 11.

EBOOKS or PRINT Goal: 12
I only did 10 (of 24) in 2021 so I want to push to at least one per month. Not necessarily have to be read one per month but that would be nice.
Not Completed - I got to 10 with four of those being children's books. As noted above, I ended up shifting to Audiobooks.

SEASONS Goal: 4
I will do this again for Winter, Spring, Summer, and Autumn (maybe Fall). I have toyed with monthly goal in prior years, but it just didn’t work to match the month. I could try reading the months whenever… I’ll think about that.
COMPLETE

SERIES Goal: 75
Considering I read 97 series in 2021 (32 continuing + 65 new) I expect to do well with this again.
COMPLETE - I read 99 series; 34 continuing and 65 new to me.

ALPHABET CHALLENGE #1: My first choice is AUDIO SERIES which I so enjoy! Most will be TBR before 2022. Part of my decisions will be choosing between a series I am familiar with or one I want to start!
COMPLETE but I had to use an X22 Podcast for X.

ALPHABET CHALLENGE #2
: This will be a variety Mixed Media - Audio, NetGalley, eBook and Print. I will try for single titles rather than series in this challenge, but not guaranteed. Most will be TBR before 2022.
The Alphabet goals help me pick from my overflowing shelves. :-)
All done except X.

YouVersion Bible App Goal: Bible through the year and 10 additional plans.
I finished my Bible (5th year in a row) but only did 5 additional plans.

Colors – No goal. This wasn’t as easy as I hoped so I am not setting this one up this year. I may just keep track to see how it goes.

Sunday Post January 1, 2023/It's Monday! What are You Reading? Plus Mailbox Monday January 2, 2023

Sunday Post #318 Chairs, Compliance, and Storms
I am linking with Sunday Post at Caffeinated Book Reviewer.

It's Monday! What Are You Reading? now at The Book Date (at Wordpress)
What Are You Reading? is where we gather to share what we have read this past week and what we plan to read this week. It is a great way to network with other bloggers, see some wonderful blogs, and put new titles on your reading list.


Happy New Year!
I hope everyone had a lovely two weeks while I was away from computer visiting family. I only opened the computer to assist Heather with a couple of work related files.

I drove to Illinois to visit my son and his family since my d-i-l is having surgery for the returned cancer on January 3. It was too much for the five of them to drive down.
My eldest granddaughter here in Florida went up with me. She just had her 15th birthday so doesn't have her learners driving permit yet but maybe next visit she can help drive the 787 miles.
I took three days up and back instead of the usual two. Going up I was worried about driving in snow and ice. Fortunately, the highways were cleared and I had only a short time driving through light snow flurries. Coming home was not so nice as we drove several hours through rain. 

The only bad snow was at our hotel the second night. This made it hard to walk the dogs!
Long haired and fluffy Bear almost played in the snow, but short haired Princess could barely keep her feet down.

My Illinois grandchildren each gave me a special gift - a "beautiful Grandma" cup for my daily coffee or tea, a make-up sponge to help me look better, and a fluffy pen because "Grandma writes a lot".

Have you made any New Year Resolutions? Mine is: more decluttering, which may include less computering. I'll be setting up some goals for reading but may do less blogging.

My prayers include prayers for more unity in all nations and a calmer atmosphere in 2023.

I am so glad to be home. I drove a short two hours the storm day (Thursday 12/22) but that meant I set out to face 5 and 1 degree weather (-9 wind chill) and snow - brrrr.
It warmed up after Christmas and I returned home to temps in the 60s with a range this week from low of 37 to  high of 76.

I wish everyone a Year full of health, peace, and love - which are the best features of prosperity!
New Years Wishes 2023

I finished five audios plus my 2022 Bible plan. I barely turned on the computer this trip so I could spend more time with the family and less online.

I did no visiting over the past two weeks.
No Shout outs until I get settled in to computing again. I hope you continue to enjoy visiting blog friends.

Audiobooks.com is still sharing some free listens for children.

Length: 9 hrs and 34 mins
I enjoyed this Christian police procedure thriller and will want to get more in the series.

Publisher's Summary
Tess O'Rourke dreams of becoming the first female chief of police in Long Beach, California. As commander of the East Division, she is well on her way...until the night she responds to an officer-needs-assistance call and fatally shoots an unarmed teenager. Despite being cleared of wrongdoing by a grand jury, Tess is so hounded by the public that she takes a job in Oregon to escape the bad press.
Winning over the residents of Rogue's Hollow might be more difficult than adjusting to her new role as police chief in the small backwater town - especially when her closest friend, the pastor's wife, goes missing and the woman's cousin is found shot. Tess finds an ally in sheriff's deputy Steve Logan, but as they track down Rogue's Hollow's first murderer, she worries that she's breaking one of her rules and getting too close to him.

Length: 8 hrs and 31 mins

Publisher's Summary
Miracle Springs is a place of healing. Strangers flock there hoping that the natural hot springs, five-star cuisine, and renowned spa can cure their ills. And, if none of that works, they often find their way to Miracle Books, where, over a fresh-baked scone from the Gingerbread House bakery, they exchange their stories with owner Nora Pennington in return for a carefully chosen book. That's Nora's special talent: prescribing the perfect novel to ease a person's deepest pain and lighten their heaviest burden.
But when a visiting businessman reaches out to Nora for guidance, he's found dead on the train tracks before he can keep their appointment. Determined to uncover the truth behind the businessman's demise, Nora forms the Secret, Book, and Scone Society, and, as the society works to untangle the web of corruption surrounding the murder, they also discover their own courage, purpose, and a sisterhood that will carry them through every challenge.

Source: 1/15/2020 December Audible Credit.

Publisher's Summary
“The answer is no, Lyra”, my mother utters her favorite - I swear - phrase.
No means I have to travel with them to another planet - again.
No means leaving all my friends 50 years in the past. Thanks, Einstein.
Seventeen-year-old Lyra Daniels can’t truly blame Einstein or her parents for their impending move across the Milky Way Galaxy. It’s all due to the invention of the Q-net, which made traveling the vast distances in space possible - with one big caveat: the time dilation. But that never stopped Lyra's ancestors from exploring the Milky Way, searching for resources and exoplanets to colonize. What they didn’t expect to find is life-sized terracotta warriors buried on 21 different exoplanets...Make that 22.
As the Galaxy’s leading experts on the warriors, Lyra's parents are thrilled by the new discovery, sending them - and her - 50 years into the future. Her social life in ruins, she fills her lonely days by illegally worming into the Q-net. The only person close to her age is the annoyingly irresistible security officer who threatens to throw her into the brig.
After the planet they just left goes silent - meaning no communications from them at all - security has bigger problems to deal with than Lyra, especially when vital data files go missing. But that's just the beginning, because they’re not as alone as they thought on their new planet...and suddenly time isn't the only thing working against them.

The Return of the Gods
By: Jonathan Cahn
Narrated by: Lawrence Richardson
Length: 8 hrs and 34 mins
I chose this for my First Book of 2023.
Source: 12/3122 Audible Credit.

Publisher's Summary
In The Return of the Gods, Cahn takes the listener on a journey from an ancient parable, the ancient inscriptions in Sumer, Assyria, and Babylonia that become the puzzle pieces behind what is taking place in our world to this day, specifically in America.
The mystery involves the gods. Who are they? What are they? And is it possible that these beings, whose origins are from ancient times, are the unseen catalysts of modern culture?
Is it possible that these gods lie behind the most pivotal events, forces, and movements taking place in our nation and around the world at this very moment? Are the gods at this very moment transforming our culture, our children, our lives, and America itself?
Could this mystery have even determined the exact days on which Supreme Court decisions had to be handed down?
What is the Dark Trinity?
Is it possible that what we in the modern world take as nothing more than ancient mythology could actually possess a reality beyond our fathoming?
Who is the Possessor? The Enchanter? The Destroyer? And the Sorceress?
Could a sign that has appeared all over America and the world be linked to the gods of Mesopotamia? And if so, what does it actually mean?
Could the gods have returned to New York City and an ancient mythology played out on the streets in real time?
Is it possible that the gods lie behind everything from what appears on our computer monitors, our televisions and movie screens; to the lessons given in our classrooms; to the breakdown of the family; to wokism; to the occult; to our addictions; to the Supreme Court; to cancel culture; to children's cartoons; to every force and factor that has transformed the parameters of gender; to that which appears in our stores, on our T-shirts, and on our coffee mugs—to that which is, at this very moment, transforming America and much of the world? Is it possible that behind all these things are ancient mysteries that go back to the Middle East and ancient Mesopotamia? This and so much more, most of which we can't even reveal in this description, will be uncovered.
Is it possible that the gods are even affecting your life right now? How can you recognize it? And what can you do about it?
The Return of the Gods is not only one of the most explosive books you'll ever listen to but also one of the most profound. It will reveal the most stunning secrets and truths behind what is happening before your eyes in America and the nations. You will see things, even in your world, in a whole new light. With such chapters as “The House of Spirits,” “The Avatar,” “The Masters,” “The Deep Magic,” and “The Day of the Goddess,” The Return of the Gods will take listeners on a fascinating, unforgettable, and mind-blowing journey that will leave them stunned and with the ability to see the world as they never have before.
Be prepared to be blown away as you open up Jonathan Cahn's most explosive book ever, The Return of the Gods!

At Love's Command

Release date: 06-09-20
I am enjoying this Historical Romance.

12/18/2021 November Audible Credit.

Publisher's Summary
Haunted by the horrors of war, ex-cavalry officer Matthew Hanger leads a band of mercenaries known as Hanger's Horsemen who have become legends in 1890s Texas. 
They defend the innocent and obtain justice for the oppressed. But when a rustler's bullet leaves one of them at death's door, they're the ones in need of saving. Dr. Josephine Burkett is used to men taking one look at her skirts and discounting her medical skills. What she's not used to is having a man change his mind in a heartbeat and offer to assist her in surgery. Matthew Hanger's dedication to his friend during recovery earns Josephine's respect, and when she hears of her brother's abduction, he becomes her only hope for rescue. 
Matt has stared down ruthless outlaws, betrayal, and injury, but when a bossy lady doctor crawls under his skin, his heart is tempted to surrender. And when she is caught in the crossfire, he may have to sacrifice everything - even his team - to save her.

I am still trying to decide if I want to read older TBR, pick from alphabet or go with all the favorites in series I have waiting! I have to start organizing my 2023 reading lists. 


January 1, 2023 -  I have started a new plan in YouVersion.  I totally enjoyed watching the devotion videos so I am doing another BibleProject plan: The Full Story - "From the beginning to the Amen" .  I have never done a Chronological reading before. I think I will enjoy it.


I finished five audio titles and reviewed none. I am now behind 10 reviews (not likely to get to the 7 children's books any time soon). I plan to work on year end posts and maybe a review in between.

NETGALLEY STATUS--
I have five titles from NetGalley.
I still have the three old ebook titles. I will probably end up letting A Place Called Armageddon go as DNF.
I have one author review in my queue that I need to start reading on my computer.
(Plus a few that I received from Facebook links and newsletter sign-ups, not specific review requests.)
Still many titles through InstaFreebie and many new author requests I haven't replied to.


Welcome to Mailbox Monday.

Mailbox Monday is a gathering place for readers to share the books that came into their house last week and explore great book blogs. This Meme started with Marcia at A Girl and Her Books (fka The Printed Page) and after a tour of hosts has returned to its permanent home at Mailbox Monday. Thanks to the ladies sharing hosting duties: Serena of Savvy Verse & Wit, me and new to the team, Velvet at vvb32reads. Warning: Mailbox Monday can lead to envy, toppling TBR piles and humongous wish lists.

I tend to fill up on titles in December so they will qualify for TBRs in 2023.
I picked three new (listen now) review titles this week through NetGalley.
I selected my two December credit books at Audible.
I found two titles at Chirp that I purchased at $.99 each.
I got two free Kindle title this week.

Are your mailbox and TBR piles blooming?

Sunday Words of Encouragment January 1, 2023 - God's Expectations

My granddaughter and I arrived home safely on Saturday. All appeared fine with the house until I turned the well pump/water fuse back on. Then my granddaughter said, “Grandmom, there is water spraying from the pump house!” So, I had to call the well/pump repair man. He is supposed to come this morning.

I missed attending our first church service that opened with church breakfast. :-(  But I am thankful I could attend the service online.

Pastor reminded us that the church will go into a 21-day time of fasting starting next Sunday. His message was on God’s Expectations for Us.

We don’t always know what others expect, even our spouses and family members. And often we don’t communicate our expectations well, if at all. Do we even think about God’s expectations?

God says, ”When you pray…When you give…When you Fast.” These are not “if you” situations. God expects these as part of our worship.

Most Christians pray – to greater or lesser extent.
Only 5% of professed Christians tithe to their church. And the average giving is $17.00 per month. (That is barely the cost of a fast-food meal or fancy coffees for two.)
Malachi 3:10 says, “10 Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. Test me in this,” says the Lord Almighty, “and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that there will not be room enough to store it.”

How many of us fast?
Why do we fast? We are fasting to grow closer to God, to get to know Him better, and to see His presence manifest in our lives. We want to see His peace, His joy, His love radiating from each of us. We fast to seek God, not to impress others. Matthew 6:5-6, 16-18.

The fast does not expect us to eat no food for 40 days or 21 days. There are a variety of fasting plans we can participate in.
Many of us will do a “Daniel fast” where we forego certain foods. We are to plan to give up some food, a meal or something else that God calls us to give up. Then we are to be mindful and spend that time with God.

Pastor believes God is calling our church to be more than a “status quo” church. We are seeking the supernatural kingdom of God.

Supernatural power and anointing to flow in our lives. Goal to have more powerful prayer life, more anointing of God. More evidence from your life of God in your life.
God rewards with favor and forgiveness, release from addictions, peace.

We fast not as a hunger strike to get God to move but replacing our hunger for things of this life with the things of God.

James 4:2b-3 tells us “You do not have because you do not ask God. 3 When you ask, you do not receive, because you ask with wrong motives, that you may spend what you get on your pleasures.”

If we seek to focus on God, we seek to have the Kingdom of God manifest more in our lives.

I didn’t pick a “New Year” song because this song spoke to me instead.
I had a little struggle with my first Christmas, birthday and New Years in 37 years without my Bob.
This song reminds me that God still Reigns and He is God.

Verses for Today:
Matthew 6:16-18.
16 “When you fast, do not look somber as the hypocrites do, for they disfigure their faces to show others they are fasting. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. 17 But when you fast, put oil on your head and wash your face, 18 so that it will not be obvious to others that you are fasting, but only to your Father, who is unseen; and your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you..

Lord, I pray that you will help me seek and be true to Your expectations of me.

What Do You Expect? -Matthew 6:2-6, 16-18
