My favorite audiobooks of 2016 are:  Not My Father's Son by Alan Cumming, The Help by Katherine Stockett, As You Wish: Inconceivable Tales from the Making of The Princess Bride by Cary Elwes, Ready Player One by Ernest Cline, Dear Mr. You by Mary-Louise Parker, and Hidden Bodies by Caroline Kepnes.

My least favorite audiobooks of 2016 are: The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain (despite being narrated by Elijah Wood) and Breakfast of Champions by Kurt Vonnegut (despite being narrated by John Malkovich).  I liked both Wood's and Malkovich's voices, but I didn't care for either story and found them a chore to get through.

Thanks to the gals @ A Book Nympho and Hot Reads for hosting the challenge again this year.  I can only imagine the amount of work that must go into hosting a challenge.

As for 2017, I have decided not to participate in the challenge next year.  My life has changed a bit and I find myself not listening to as many audiobooks as I once did.  I love a good challenge, but think it's best to just sit this one out.  

Do you listen to audiobooks?  What was your favorite and least favorite audiobooks of 2016?

As always, thanks for stopping by!
