2. PBT was founded in February, 2008. Read a book that represents or relates to any event that occurred (or occurs) in February.

4. We have been compiling the PBT Top 10 list since our inception. Read a book from any of our 15 years of Top 10 selections.

https://www.goodreads.com/topic/group...

5. Read a book that fits the tag of India. Read in December, 2013, it represents our least read tag (excluding administrator special tags).

6. Surprisingly, our favorite tag as measured by books read in one month was read way back in 2008. Read a book that fits the tag of mystery.

7. When PBT was 7 years old, we compiled our own top 100 non-fiction books of all time. Read one to blow out this candle.

https://www.goodreads.com/group/books...

8. When PBT was 8 years old, we compiled our own top 100 fictional books of all time. Read one to blow out this candle.

https://www.goodreads.com/group/books...

9. In 2016, we were forced to make the move from Shelfari to Goodreads. Read a book that fits EITHER the last tag we read at Shelfari (2010) or the first tag we read at Goodreads (world war ii).

10. Our most prolific poster (in the Goodreads era) is Amy (https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/1...). Amy has posted more than anyone (including the administrators!) with 9301 comments as of this writing. Read a book in Amy's honor that somehow relates to her (either it is on her shelf, or highlights something you know about her personally, or her geography, or her profession). Indicate how you selected the book with your review.

11. Read a book that was a buddy read here on PBT that you have not read before. Link to the buddy read thread along with your review.

12. Fall Flurries and Trim the TBR have been staples for PBT for a very long time! Select a book that has been read for either of these PBT stalwarts that is shelved on our PBT bookshelf found here: https://www.goodreads.com/group/books...

13. PBT's very first game/challenge was called "Last Tagger Standing", and it was modelled on the famous television show, Survivor. Read a book that is tagged with survival or survivor.

14. Read a book from your favorite tag of all the tags you've personally read with PBT.

15. PBT is 15 years old! Read a book that was published the year YOU turned 15.
