I've loved audiobooks for years and years, but I always get excited when I hear about a new convert! I'm glad you've recovered your love of reading, and agree that the narrator makes a big difference when you're listening instead of reading and hearing your own internal voice.

I'm impressed, too! I guess you need a longer list! ;) I meant to participate in the Twitter chat and just completely forgot until there was less than 10 minutes left to it!

This isn't one I would automatically reach for, but I like the sound of it now.

That's very ambitious! Have fun working on your blog and hosting a mini challenge!

Great list! I love posts where bloggers share book-related links, especially links to other blogs I may not be aware of!

I just saw this post on Google+ and clicked through because I too have thought off and on about linking Facebook and my blog, but I haven't. I feel they're two separate "audiences" and my Facebook friends list is varied enough already that I can't always feel comfortable posting everything I might post to a certain circle of friends, but don't want to take the trouble to change the list of who can see a post on FB! I'm also tiring of FB, and I expect others are too. It's hard to maintain a stream of interesting status updates! Every now and then I do use the WordPress publicize feature to share a new blog post on FB, but I can't see bringing blog readers to my Facebook. I don't think they'd care about most of what I post there, but i's definitely something to wrestle with!

Great post! I love all of you who tackle these big blogging issues/themes on your blog! I was old enough when I started blogging to know I wasn't going to hit the big time so I've never gotten to the point of feeling as though I HAD to keep my blog going for my vast hordes of readers. I keep it going for my own pleasure, and have had to drop way back on requesting review copies because of all those "else" things you mention!

Fantastic list! I've been meaning to read We Are Completely Beside Ourselves for quite a while, and have added Parnassus on Wheels to my TBR. The Martian was on my 2014 favorite audiobooks list, and I also thought The Invention of Wings was excellent.

Happy 2015! I chose a book I received as a gift for Christmas, too, but I'm cheating by trying to finish one I was close to the end of first! I figure I have till midnight tonight to start my official first book!

Love your photo! I have been meaning to read your book, too! Have you already read The Storied Life of AJ Fikry? I loved it!
