italics = re-read 

Given the following choices for levels, I think it's safe for me to choose "Marathoner" which is 50+ audiobooks in 2015. My overall goal for number of books to read this year is 120. See all of the books I've read so far this year here.

levels:

  • Newbie (I’ll give it a try) 1-5 
  • Weekend Warrior (I’m getting the hang of this) 5-10
  • Stenographer (can listen while multi-tasking) 10-15
  • Socially Awkward (Don’t talk to me) 15-20
  • Binge Listener (Why read when someone can do it for you) 20-30
