Can 1,500,000 Pages Be Read In 2016?
I think we are off count again already. Post #256 has 109, 771. Adding 383 from post #257, + 764 from post #258 + 300 from post #259 = 111,218
Using that total, I''m going to add:
The Iron Queen by Julie Kagawa 358 pages
111,218 + 358 = 111,576
Running on Red Dog Road: And Other Perils of an Appalachian Childhood
Drema Hall Berkheimer 208 pages + 111,576 = 111,784
312 pages Bookplate Special by Lorna Barrett340 pages Chapter and Hearse by Lorna Barrett
366 pages Tricked by Kevin Hearne
351 pages The Demon You Know by Christine Warren
064 pages The Grimoire of the Lamb by Kevin Hearne
Total 1,433 pages
112,484 + 1,433 = 113,917
157 pages City of Shadows (Part One of Two): A Lovecraft Adventure by Jack Conner115,695 + 157 = 115,852

152 pages: Determined170 pages: Determined: To Love
193 pages: Determined: To Win
159 pages: Trau keinem Playboy (The Law is a Lady)
324 pages: Mord ist ihre Leidenschaft (Vengeance in Death)
307 pages: Liebesnacht mit einem Mörder (Holiday in Death)
440 pages: No Turning Back
33 pages: Impregnated by the Seal (new title: Pregnant by the SEAL)
1,778 pages: total
115,920 + 1,778 = 117,698
On Feb 8, 2015, we had posted 99,587 pages.Our current total today is: 119,088
(Somewhere 27 pages got added that were not there.)
While we are 19,501 pages ahead of last year, with our increased goal, we are still 37,076 pages behind. I think we just need some more people to post. We did seem to lag behind at the beginning of the year last year, then partway through, folks started adding their Year-to-date totals, and we jumped up quickly.
We had 31 people posting pages as of the 8th last year, and have 37 this year. At the end of 2015, we had 62 people posting. If those other 25 people posted their totals, I think we would be up to date or ahead.
I am one person who didn't post last year, I hadn't seen the challenge or I would have added my total. Last years page count for me was 14, 943.
