Anita Pomerantz | 9280 comments PBT members have voted, and the following people have won a slew of participation points. If you are a winner, please report the number of books you read AND reviewed from the list. Or post a link to your member challenge tracking thread (if you have that, that would be great). I will add your points in January.

For the Most Interesting List, KateNZ wins the prize for her choice:

Speculative Fiction that Passes the Bechdel Test

For the Most Difficult List to Read, Ellen and Joi are the winners with their shared choice of:

The Most Disturbing Book Ever Written

Finally, annapi snags the prize for reading the list you'd least expect her to read with:

Titlemania III: Whole-Sentence Titles

The awards are as follows:

a) Most interesting list (10 points per book)
b) Hardest list to read (20 points per book)
c) List we least expected the particular member to choose (10 points per book)

Please send me any info you can (either post here or point me to a link) to verify the number of books so you may claim your awards!

2) The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls, finished April 25
