Dr. Sophie, both those books are on the Chunkster and Triple Threat Approved/Not Approved Books Spreadsheet as "Triple Threats." They will not become Cutthroats.

I can't find a word count anywhere for
Artful Dodger, published in 2013 by Barrel Boat Enterprises. Can you help?
Is this
by any chance chunkster material?I couldn't find word count, but pages are pretty close (according to GR)
Nichole - I could not find word counts for either of these booksThe Fall is not a chunkster. According to WorldCat it is only 440 pages.
The Night Eternal would be accepted as a chunkster.

No. Sorry, ❀Tea❀. It doesn't quite make it.
❀Tea❀ - I could not find a word count for this book either.When Lightning Strikes is only 441 pages according to WorldCat and would not be a chunkster.

Thanks CP!
When you have time, would you check these to see if any of them count as chunksters? Several are over 450 pages, but the others might qualify based on word count. Thanks :) Gettysburg, by Stephen W. Sears
The Sign Of The Book, by John Dunning
Alone, by Lisa Gardner
You're Next, by Gregg Hurwitz
Defending Jacob, by William Landay
Daemon, by Daniel Suarez
Fly Away, by Kristin Hannah
Barb, one or two of these almost make it to a TT, but not quite:
“Chunksters”
Gettysburg, by Stephen W. Sears
The Sign Of The Book, by John Dunning
You're Next, by Gregg Hurwitz
Defending Jacob, by William Landay
Daemon, by Daniel Suarez
Fly Away, by Kristin Hannah
Regular Book
Alone, by Lisa Gardner
If you have time, could you check the word count for The Emperor of All Maladies? Based on the length of the audiobook, I'm 99% sure it's a triple threat instead of a chunkster, but I wanted to make certain before I submitted it.Thank you!
That's right on the borderline, Ashley Marie. I'll have to turn it over to Countess Paige, and we don't do page counts on Sundays. (I know, you posted it last night. ☺)
Just doing the Sunday Update and need approval on one of Barbara's books. The version below is what she shelved for us but it's showing only 1 page but others show anywhere from 496 to over 600 pages. Small Sacrifices: A True Story of Passion and Murder

The version below is what she shelved for us but it's showing only 1 page but others show anywhere from 496 to over 600 pag..."Small Sacrifices: A True Story of Passion and Murder = 487 p with 8 pages of pictures, according to WorldCat.
I have a question, is cranked by Ellen Hopkins approved for the challenge? It is over 500 pages,but written poem style?
Amy - books by Ellen Hopkins have been approved for the challenge but are not considered to be chunksters despite the number of pages.
My computer isn't working too well and I find it difficult to add books on the Ipad so I hope a librarian will add a book to GR database that is not here.It is: How (Not) to Kiss a Gargoyle (Cindy Eller #5) by Elizabeth A Reeves. I have bought it on Amazon.co.uk
Dearest Countess Paige,Have you discovered any more information on the Dresden Files (specifically, right now at least, books Four - Summer Knight and Five - Death Masks)? I have recently finished Summer Knight and will be reading Death Masks soon, and was just wondering! :D
Thanks!!!
Yes, I would prefer the kindle versionThe kindle version also only says 197 pages and not 225 like the ebook.
Thank you LK

But I'm not complaining, it helps my team and the others involved in the buddy read of the series :D
I noticed that one of the In Death series is on the approved chunkster spreadsheet.I'm not going to ask for rulings on all 465,723,183.6432 books in the series, but just those I've noticed on my team's bookshelves today -- are these chunksters or not?
Thanks! :D
(oh, and for ease of comparison, the already approved one is
)
*gentle bump*Just wondering if you've been able to find anything on the word count for
.Thanks in advance, Countess Paige!
Sorry Ashley Marie. I talked to LK about this and we never reported back.
would count as a chunkster but not a triple threat. Sorry!
I recently finished The Naughty Box which is 9 books in one. GR has the page count as Kindle Edition, 1650 pages. Can I count it as one book or since it's a Kindle set, do I have to count it as 9 books? If the 1650 holds up, then I would ask about extra BAPs for the length but I wanted a ruling. Thanks mods!
Stacie, we'd have to check the page count of each book (as it isn't on WorldCat), but yes, if it all bound together, it would count for the appropriate cupcake redemption.

I'll submit it in the cupcake redemption thread for you mod geniuses to verify.
Hi, can I get approval for a book please? I can only find a page number from Amazon. The book is
