kittykat AKA Ms. Tortitude | 376 comments Maybe??? I'm not a challenge person as it makes me slumpy most of the time, and later last year I decided to ignore all the ones I had committed to. However, a few mini ones like this should be ok for me and I'm two down already!

I've been able to grab all three audiobooks for free b/c of hubby's Audible account and they were free Audible Originals 😁 I still haven't started the series tho.
