Rebecca NJ (njreader) | 2120 comments Hi! I'm looking to see if this book would count. The ebook says 98 pages but there is a print equivalent of 216 pages.

Her Wolf by Rebecca Royce

Thanks!

Yes, Rebecca, I see there is a paperback version with that number of pages, so it counts.

Yay! Thanks - I can't seem to stop with this series. I'm probably going to start #4 this weekend...

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 15159 comments Enjoy!


message 60: by Ashley (new)

Ashley I'm kind of confused about page numbers. I just finished reading Unwrapped by Chantilly White. GR doesn't have page numbers listed (at least none that I can find) but the Kindle store has it listed as 177 pages. Can I count this book?


message 61: by Lisa Kay (new)

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 15159 comments Sure, Ashley. That one counts.


message 62: by Jamie (new)

Jamie Dubois | 33 comments I am getting ready to start Destined (Vampire Awakenings, #2) by Brenda K. Davies but Goodreads doesn't give page numbers.
Kindle shows true page numbers (330 pages), can you add those to Goodreads please?


message 63: by Lisa Kay (new)

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 15159 comments Jamie, I combined the paperback and Kindle editions and added the page numbers. I also fixed the wonky bookcover on the Kindle version.

Rebecca NJ (njreader) | 2120 comments I'm trying to verify Living with Temptation by Melinda Hale. Goodreads now says 174 pages but I'm finding an estimated 147 pages on Amazon (File Size: 332 KB).

Some of the ebook pages are changing on me...

Rebecca, Amazon has the words "estimate" after the page count. I found it here on Smashwords with a word count of 50,194.

Divide that by 250 word/page (what we established for this challenge), then that = 200.776 pages. I'll accept it. However, I'm not going to change anything on the GRs database.

I don't know what to tell you about the changing page numbers... other than it is a dynamic system.


message 67: by Rebecca NJ (new)

Rebecca NJ (njreader) | 2120 comments Thank you. I missed the "estimate" earlier.

Yeah, it is NOT in both places where page numbers are indicated, so easy to miss.


message 69: by Mary X (new)

Mary X (marymaryalwayscontrary) | 5588 comments Can I get a page number added to this: Lipstick and Leather: Three Sexy Cowboys, Three Sexy Tales

Amazon says it's 178 pages but all the editions here say 0 pages.

Lipstick and Leather Three Sexy Cowboys, Three Sexy Tales (Rough and Ready #1) by Cheyenne McCray"


According to GRs database, the paperback version has 178 pages; therefore, I changed the eBook/Kindle versions.


message 71: by Mary X (new)

Mary X (marymaryalwayscontrary) | 5588 comments All the versions I saw on here had no page counts. Guess I missed one.

Thanks.


message 72: by Lisa Kay (new)

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 15159 comments Not a problem, Mary.


message 73: by Jane (new)

Jane  | 705 comments I can't find the page number for A Different Witch (A Modern Witch, #5) by Debora Geary there is no mention here or amazon that I can see.


message 74: by Lisa Kay (new)

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 15159 comments Let me check into it, Jane.


message 75: by Lisa Kay (last edited Feb 17, 2013 06:49PM) (new)

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 15159 comments I can't find anything, either, Jane. I'm going to go by the rest of the books in the series (except the wedding one, which doesn't have a series number assigned) and say it is >200 pages.

Based on file size, it is approximately 236.5 pages. I'm not going to add it to GRs database, because I have to use a legitimate source. However, it is allowed in the challenge. If anyone questions it, just refer them to this post.

Rebecca NJ (njreader) | 2120 comments Hi Lisa Kay!!

I am currently reading The Mind Readers. I found on Smashwords that the book has 81,570 words. However, on Goodreads most editions just show 170 pages. Will this book count for this challenge?

Thanks!


message 78: by Lisa Kay (new)

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 15159 comments Yup!


message 79: by Rebecca NJ (new)

Rebecca NJ (njreader) | 2120 comments Fabulous! Thank you. I'll tell you, these e-reader page counts are driving me bananas!

Amazon has it as 326 pages.

and this: Mystical Seduction by Dorothy McFalls
Amazon has 179

The Frenchman's Woman (The Grandmaster's Legacy) by Taylor Lee Amazon has 310

I didn't get there in time! I will do it some day :)


message 87: by Lisa Kay (new)

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 15159 comments Mary, I cannot find those books anywhere but Amazon/Kindle. They are certainly allowable for this challenge; I'll take those pages numbers, as indicated; however, I didn't change the GRs database. If anyone questions you, refer them to this post.


message 88: by Mary X (new)

Mary X (marymaryalwayscontrary) | 5588 comments OK thanks. I may not even use them but I own them and would like the option.


message 89: by Mandy (new)

Mandy Beyers (mandybeyers) | 173 comments I am planning to read Walk A Lonesome Road which Smashwords says is ~70,936 words. I assume this is fine?

Yes, Mandy. That would work out to be about 284 pages.

jingles Good morning. I need some help in finding/verifying the page numbers for this book:



Feathers on the Floor by Genene Valleau

I'm not sure if it will qualify for this challenge.

Thanks for the help.

:)


message 92: by Lisa Kay (last edited Mar 12, 2013 11:05AM) (new)

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 15159 comments Jingles, Feathers on the Floor by Genie Gabriel & Genene Valleau is combined with another book The Bodyguard, by Genie Gabriel. Are they the same book (re-published under a different title) and same author? If not, I'm going to have to contact the GRs Librarian group.


message 93: by jingles (last edited Mar 12, 2013 09:47AM) (new)

jingles They are the same author. She writes under both names. I think it was first published as "Feathers on the Floor" by Genene Valleau. Then maybe republished as "The Bodyguard".

You might want to confirm that though, as I could be wrong.


message 94: by Lisa Kay (new)

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 15159 comments Done! All editions (and titles) are now showing 262 pages, jingles.

Feathers on the Floor by Genie Gabriel


message 95: by jingles (new)

jingles Thank you, Lisa Kay!


message 96: by Jane (new)

Jane  | 705 comments I am currently reading (for another challenge) The House at Pooh Corner (The Winnie-the-Pooh Series #2)

This is the Kindle edition. Other editions says page number is 192 for this book.

Now according to page number is should be okay for this challenge but it being a children's book there is of course quite a few illustrations in it.

My question: Can I count this book towards Tower Teams Read?


message 97: by Lisa Kay (new)

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 15159 comments Oh, good question, Jane. I looked at it on-line and, while there are illustrations, they are small and within the pages.

However, I found the word count = 25,361. If you divide that by 250 (words per page), that equals 101.4 pages. So, sorry, no. Nevertheless, another book of that type or by that author, with enough words, would be allowed for this challenge.


message 98: by [deleted user] (new)

Got another problem: I just started reading Red Mist (Kay Scarpetta, #19) by Patricia Cornwell . When I select it for tracking the pages that I read. It shows there is 512 pages but the edition that I have only have 352. It's the hardback not the paperback and I can't find anything that has 352 pages when I try to change the edition. Do I keep the 512 pages or do I use one of the edition that is close to the 352 pages?


message 99: by Lisa Kay (new)

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 15159 comments Okay, Nancy, how about I just add another edition?

You want:

This cover:


This page count: 352

This format: Hardcover

What is the publication year for that edition?

Who is the publisher?


message 100: by [deleted user] (new)

Yes, that is the one that I was looking for. The publication year for the book is 2011 and the publisher was the Penguin Group.
