MONTHLY PAGE COUNT
>
What is This?
I think she might be busy now. Anyway, it's always good to post rating and date read. I am sure J will include it :)
How about book review? Is it optional?
Maybe a link to the review you write here on GR after you finish.
Yes, a rating and date finished is supposed to be included. I'm very sorry! I was very busy while trying to post this! You do not have to do a review but if you do, just link the website below your books! Thanks!
What if I started a book in November, but didn't finish it until December? Do I count the pages I've read in December? Or not include that book at all?
You would list the whole book in the page count (see paragraph three above):) Yay!! I love seeing our total climb quickly!!!

Lucky for me I finished my books from last month, except Daughter of Smokes and Bones.
but up above it says"If for instance, you start a book late in one month and then finish in the next, you may include all pages. So say you read 40 pages in November and the rest in December you can still put those 40 pages towards this."
you include all, right?
It'd be hard to estimate if you read e format :) So she said Yes... lol.. She has changed the rules and I forgot to reread :)
How are we counting our ebook reads? Do you count the pages it says or the number of pages in the paperback? I think the page counts on NOOKs and Kindles are even different.
this is what she put above"Now, I know many people read ebooks. Pages can be hard to calculate when reading this type of book. On Amazon, when you go under the ebook version of the book, under where the prices and book description is listed, the real page amount is listed. This can definitely help!"
does that help?
Jalyn, you would count the pages you read in November towards this as well! Thanks so much Trisha for helping while I was away!
Vicki, you can just search it up on Amazon!
How do you post the book cover itself when submitting your pages?
when you go to type into a comment box, there is a writing just above the box that says "add book/author"click on that. You can then select your book (type in the name). Below where you type in, you have the option to either post a "link" or "cover". Just click cover.
I hope that helps!
You are good at answering those questions, Trisha. Thanks. Very helpful :)
Are you going to total up each person's total pages read like you guys do with total books read for the monthly book count?
Yes! It's kind of tricky to do updates during the month so I will just do total pages at the end!
You're welcome!
Thanks for that J. It is not easy to go through those numbers again.
wow! Ugh, I hope it wasn't me! I'm so scared of messing up our numbers! LOL! I know a couple of us tried to correct numbers as we saw them go off....
Maybe it was me :P I am so bad at numbers!
I'm sure it is ok. No one would have done it on purpose :)
No, it wasn't any of you, I actually forget who it was but it was on the second page! Thank God I caught it because there was like an 1,000 page difference!

Great job everyone! Thanks for participating! Keep Reading! Come back for the February Page Count: http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/1...
yay!!! My prediction came through!!! We had about 10K more pages! Just amazing!Do you think we'll do more next month??
This month I am deff going to write everything down when I finished a book. Istarted off febuary's just five minutes ago since I finished a book!(:
It is amazing! Hopefully we'll get more but as long as we keep reading I'm happy! :D
Tracy, great! Congrats on your first book of Feb! What was it?
Hey J, I think it'd be great if you create another thread to keep track of how many pages we have read. You know, to see how many months it'll take us to read 1 million pages :)
Awesome! I'll create them now!
Thanks Gisbelle for posting the March one! I have been so busy lately and I will have the total stats for Feb. as soon as possible! Thanks for your patience!

We will be using this to see how many total pages we can read together as a group in each month. This will start in December!
If for instance, you start a book late in one month and then finish in the next, you may include all pages. So say you read 40 pages in November and the rest in December you can still put those 40 pages towards this.
Now, I know many people read ebooks. Pages can be hard to calculate when reading this type of book. On Amazon, when you go under the ebook version of the book, under where the prices and book description is listed, the real page amount is listed. This can definitely help! Please do not use Goodreads page amounts because they are sometimes incorrect (which I know because of past experiences.) I nicely ask all of you to please check Amazon when posting the page amount of your books. This will make it much easier for me and it won't be too much changing.
When posting your page amount, put the cover of your book with page numbers and then add them to the last number. For example,
Message #1:
Pages: 304
Total: 304
Message #2:
Pages: 501
Total: 805
Any questions? Make sure to post them below.
Ratings (1 out of 5 stars) and the date you finished the book has to be included! Book reviews are optional. If you do decide to write one link it below the books. Thanks!
