message 1: by Booknblues (new)

Booknblues | 12060 comments I just have to say, that for my reading/book obsession this is one of my favorite times of the year>

I love thinking back over the year and choosing my top 10 and I love thinking about what I want my next year in books to look like. The moderators with their challenges are instrumental in shaping my year and this year I think they topped themselves.

I love the way they have set up the TBR challenge. They did it in a way that I actually believe that I can meet it and I never seem to meet my own personal TBR challenge. I love how the members set up little buddy reads with it and the moderators were able to adjust and work with us.

I personally love the expand your horizons challenge, because I read so many books in settings around the world.

If I am able to meet the 2 challenges as well as the monthly tag that is a whopping 36 books, given no overlap and that is serious business.

KateNZ | 4100 comments Seconding! I get so much out of this group and the challenges and companionship of like minded people. Our mods do a huge amount of work throughout the year but this is such a busy time for them, and all while Hanukkah/Christmas/New Year is going on as well. Kudos, and many many thanks! 👏👏

Charlotte | 1701 comments I wholeheartedly agree!! I feel so fortunate that I found this group this past March!! I was welcomed with open arms and I've had so much fun with all of the challenges. I feel like I've made a ton of new friends and finally have people I can talk about my obsession with. I can't thank the moderators enough for the work they put in to challenge us and make it all run so smoothly!! Thank you guys for all that you do!!!

Book Concierge (tessabookconcierge) | 8414 comments Couldn't agree more. The mods of this group are great and really do a ton of work behind the scenes to keep everything running smoothly.

As an aside ... re the emojis .... couldn't figure out what the "turkey drumsticks" had to do with congrats .... until I remembered to zoom in and realized they were champagne flutes!

Ellen | 3511 comments I've been a member of this group for 10 years now and have enjoyed every single challenge, game, discussion and the friendly members.

Nicole R (drnicoler) | 8088 comments Awww...thank you all very much! We love adminning PBT and no small part of it is because of the wonderful members who always participate and he friends we make.

We even love it during this hectic time of year when we are wrapping up old challenges, starting new challenges, and maintaining the regular operations in the midst of law school finals and the holidays! It can get crazy but we wouldn’t have it any other way 🤗
