message 206: by Vi (new)

Vi | 1758 comments Lisa Kay, just checking- do we need to verify page number for ebook only versions? I'm pretty sure Golden Trail is more than 160 pages..


message 207: by Lisa Kay (new)

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 15159 comments LMBO! Not if it is listed and there's not discrepancy. I know this author. She usually writes toe breakers.

Golden Trail (The 'Burg, #3) by Kristen Ashley = 611 pages


message 208: by Vi (new)

Vi | 1758 comments It was and it really needed editing. Could have saved at least 50 pages! Thanks, LK!


message 209: by Lisa Kay (new)

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 15159 comments Is that all? LOL!


message 210: by Vi (new)

Vi | 1758 comments I'm trying to be nice here,LK. :D


message 211: by Lisa Kay (new)

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 15159 comments Posting this here for Countess Paige's referencing.

Nancy W (Purple Mountain's Majesty), the nearest I can figure, it clocks in right at 160 pages, so I'll allow 'tagging' it for this challenge. It rangers from 138 to 222 all over the Internet.

After Leaving Mr. Mackenzie by Jean Rhys After Leaving Mr Mackenzie by Jean Rhys

Too funny! I have to read this series sometime this summer. I guess this is gonna feel too long....


message 213: by Lisa Kay (new)

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 15159 comments Man-oh-man! Don't get me wrong, she writes a great story, but sometimes she just goes on and on.


message 214: by Vi (new)

Vi | 1758 comments Totally agree with you, LK! The suspense part was good but she was having way too many threads that could have been cut so much shorter. The middle part was soooooo long.

Thank you Lisa Kay. I have made note of it in the spreadsheet.


message 216: by ~Melissa~ (new)

~Melissa~ I do love her but I have to agree with both of you. They all could be a little shorter. Sometimes the whole inner turmoil of the h that gets repeated...yep I could do without so much of that


message 217: by Jane (new)

Jane  | 705 comments Lisa Kay. Could you add pagenumbers or add the book to Athena the Brain.

I am reading this edition http://www.amazon.co.uk/Athena-Brain-...

It is not exactly the same edition as the ones that are already on GR. It says 177 pages but in my Kindle the story itself is only 168


message 218: by Lisa Kay (new)

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 15159 comments Athena the Brain (Goddess Girls, #1) by Joan Holub = 177 pages


message 219: by md (new)

md | 83 comments I didn't mean that one (since I've not received it yet) though YAY for page numbers because I was wondering how long it was :D

I meant The Surgeon's Rescue Mission by Dianne Drake which I can only find a cover for here


message 220: by Lisa Kay (new)

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 15159 comments Which format, md?


message 221: by Lisa Kay (last edited Jun 01, 2013 01:01PM) (new)

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 15159 comments Kindle? I don't see that it is available in Kindle.


message 222: by Lisa Kay (new)

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 15159 comments All I see is a paperback edition and a "board" edition. I don't know what that last one is.

Jane  | 705 comments Thank you LK.

md | 83 comments Sorry, paperback!


message 225: by Vi (new)

Vi | 1758 comments LK, need your help in estimating The Boss’s Fake Fiancee by Inara Scott .. Amazon says 165 pages. Thanks.


message 226: by Lisa Kay (new)

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 15159 comments O.M.G.! Vi! This is the first time I've seen a "tweet" regarding page count. Someone asked the author for a word count, and she tweeted them back that it is just over 60,000 words.

LMBO!

I won't change the GRs datebase, but if you need page count verification, just link them to this post.


The Boss’s Fake Fiancee by Inara Scott = 240 pages

Thanks, LK!

Hey, a lot of people want page numbers. It is used in different competitions. Maybe it was someone on GRs! LOL!


message 231: by Jane (new)

Jane  | 705 comments I need help. It isn't really about pagenumbers more about edition and language. I am currently reading Rivers of London by Ben Aaronovitch.

I am reading this edition: Rivers of London I think!
It seems to be the one that corresponds Best with this amazon.uk edition

2 problems: it is missing a cover and the blurb is in German when it says it is an English edition.

Is this something you Can help with Lisa Kay?

Turtlecollector Dennis | 1164 comments Sorry if this was listed before, but I didn't see it in my quick scan of posts. I just want confirmation that this book will count. Smashwords(my version) has no pages listed on GR but the word count as 118,216 words which is 472 pages by my estimation. Fantastical (Fantasyland, #3) by Kristen Ashley

Kindle version is listed at 338 pgs on GR.

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 15159 comments Jane, I'm going to send this to the GRs Librarian Group.

Question, first: What format? Kindle? Right? I just want to be sure.

If you want to skip the librarians group, I can fix this in the morning. I see what the issue is but it's a little more complicated than I want to try editing on my phone. ;) Fixed!

Jane, this is the edition you want, it has the matching ASIN from the Amazon link you gave: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/10...

message 238: by Rhonda (new)

Rhonda | 550 comments I'm going through our teams books and have run across these with no page numbers. Can anyone help by updating them in the system. I'm not a librarian, so I'm unable to do it.


ISBN 97807653
26300 - Need page numbers added to this edition - there are other editions on the site with page numbers

ISBN 0575081392 - Need page numbers added to this edition - there are other editions on the site with page numbers


Thank you so much. I'm trying to get everything in order, as I've been made aware that we've had errors when Sunday Update comes around.


message 239: by Lisa Kay (new)

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 15159 comments Rhonda, is there a specific edition to which you want the page numbers applied? Because that is a whole lot of editions. Maybe direct me to the individuals' bookshelves, and I can narrow it down.

Deathless by Catherynne M. Valente - 12 editions
The Name of the Wind (Kingkiller Chronicle, #1) by Patrick Rothfuss - 83 editions

message 244: by Lisa Kay (new)

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 15159 comments Actually, Rhonda, I'll just check her shelves. Easier on me, as I won't have to repost here.

So, Jane, do you still want me to take the issue to the Librarians' Group?


message 246: by Rhonda (last edited Jun 03, 2013 08:55AM) (new)

Rhonda | 550 comments ok - should I continue to check the shelves now? I have checked Madilynn (she has 1 book that will not qualify on her team shelf and Oo has notified her. I've checked Ozana, Karen, Pigletto, Lara, Pavarthy, and Zina.

I will go ahead and check the rest of the team for unqualified books and I'll start checking page numbers again on Sunday if you're going to go through them today. Please advise.

Oo and I thought this was being done and I apologize for the lack of followup.
