Page Numbers, Just About Page Numbers...
This is a weird one. I read this Penguin Classics edition of The Crucible. WorldCat gives 143 pages for the book (and the Penguin Classics Paperback version) but it also has 25 pages of roman numeral introduction which puts it at 168 pages.ARBookFind says that it is 35,560 words, but I this seems to be just the play itself. The Penguin Classics version has an introduction, which I did read, of 7,463 words (copied and pasted into word for the count) which puts it at 43,023.
It's kind of borderline, but I'd like to count it if I can!

Can I get approval for
, I can't find a word count/page count but Amazon has a print version at 222p.
I wanted to confirm:
has only Kindle versions listed in GR. On Amazon they both print versions. Both are above 200 pages. Should I get them both approved?
I need help with a book when someone has time.The name of the book is "Victory for Victoria" by Betty Neels. It is the Kindle version I've read, and is listed at 224 pages on Amazon's website. The ASIN number is: B007JK57VQ.
This version is not currently listed as an option, so that I can't tag it as "read", or for the Tower Team Challenge.
ETA: I'm not sure if those two zeros in the ASIN are actually zeros or if they are the letter "O".

Sorry for the delay. This book is listed as a novella and the edition that was found on WorldCat is actually shown on the publisher's website as having only 128 pages. I'm sorry to say that this book will not count.
Thanks, Countess Paige! And following up, the member finished the next two books in the series which has only Kindle Editions in GR but Amazon has the paperback versions. Both of them qualify in terms of page count.Here they are:
- Amazon PPB - 388 pages
- Amazon PPB - 366 pgsShould I need approval for those two too?

Hi, I needed to know page count for
by Sarah Mayberry. GR puts it over 160, while amazon is puts it under. Thanks in advance!
Good morning. I'm getting ready to start the unabridged audio version of Argo: How the CIA and Hollywood Pulled Off the Most Audacious Rescue in History by Antonio J. Mendez.
The GR audio version does not show a page count, but the hard back version shows 320 pages I believe.

- we would use the print versions (both hardback and paperback are 320 pages) APPROVEDFor future reference, the audio is also listed as 9 hours and 27 minutes according to Amazon.
Hi, I am looking for a page/word count for
by Kristen Ashley. Wasn't sure if it could be used for the bouncing cupcake, but I couldn't find a word count for it and amazon is estimating its pages.
That is a loooooooooong book, Hina. I know it is a "chunkster," at least. Might be best for Lisa Kay or Countess Paige to try and find a word count, as it could be a 'triple threat.'
Tutlecollector said I should come and talk to you about the covers for some of my books (messages #711-715). I don't know what covers the books have as separates (presumably the second title is the cover on the combined edition) as I had the 2 in 1 combined book from the library but I had to take it back so I'm not sure when I'll get to read book 2.
md, you might see if the front of the book has separate ISBN numbers for the two books... that's the first thing I always check for! If they have separate ISBNs, you can just put that in the search box and it'll pull up the right edition for you to tag!
Hi,We have a member that has read 2 books that only have the kindle edition here on GR. I found paperback versions on Amazon.

And I just found it :)
