It's okay @Riya, I just posted that to keep things organized and updated if not in the end it will me a mess to determine who won lol

This was more for me, so no worries.

You are doing very well on the Challenge.

Please go to the Group Home and click on the Challenge in order to keep a better track of the books read for this.

You have to post an approximate number of books to read and the name of the shelf that will be specific for the Challenge.

Then click on save and start adding the books that you want to read for this.

Good luck :)

Apparantly the challenge won't let me use re-reads, so I had to delete Selection from my last post :(

On challenges rereads usually don't count because you know the story already and you read faster. But on Goodreads it's because there isn't a reread button yet. And in order to have a more accurate number of reads for the Challenge. The books that do count for the challenge are the ones that started to be read from May 2nd until we reach 600,000 pages read.

Good luck :)

can I add books that I read before I started the challenge, but on May 2nd and past?"


Yes you can, you have to add them to the shelf you created for the Challenge, it can't be rereads nor books read before May 2nd.

Good luck :)

Gina, do you prefer that we write the page numbers and stuff on this page or on the page that actuall shows all the information about the contest, the number of books read and stuff?? Which is easier for you? I'd just post the number of pages there next time.

Wherever you like. Just don't post 2 times the page count on the same books because like this I get confused. You can also check the update spoiler to see if I did it correctly.

message 65: by Fari (new)

Fari  (nothingbetterthanbooks) Oh, alright! I guess I'll just post it in the other page. The spoiler that you did was when I had only read City of Ashes and that was fine. However, I've read another book now, and therefore, my number of pages has increased.

Nathasha (natynaty) | 496 comments Question… what do you mean that the books are not marked?? Does my challenge shelf have something wrong?

The Challenge didn't checked your 2 books, but now I checked again and the 2 books are now marked. So no worries, your progress has been updated.


message 74: by Hanna (new)

Hanna Mata (hkrivin1) Can they be books that I started before may 2nd but am still currently reading?


message 75: by Gina's (new)

Gina's (ginasgoodreads) | 2292 comments Hanna wrote: "Can they be books that I started before may 2nd but am still currently reading?"

No, because we reached 600 members on May 2nd and you would be having a couple of pages as an advantage from everyone else.

This Challenge is just for fun, so don't worry for the other books, there is plenty of time to read in order to reach the goal of 600,000 pages read as a team.

Enjoy :)

It's not late, but you have to add the books that you have started reading on May 2nd on the shelf you chose for this Challenge and then add the number of pages read so far so I can add them to the general update.

Gina's (ginasgoodreads) | 2292 comments Please note: on the Progress if you have question marks on the number of books read by you is because you haven't marked them as read on your shelf for the Challenge (so that is why I can't type in the pages you have read for the books, since those are not marked as read, yet). And if you have question marks beside or on the page count is because you haven't updated them for the all of the books marked as read for your Challenge.
Thank you all for signing up for the Challenge we are now 20 members with 1,283 books pledged and 49 books read. Congrats everybody.

maisha (maishareads) If we read short stories, should we add that to the number of books and pages we read?

This Challenge is for the most pages read until we reach 600,000, so if Goodreads has the book or short story, you should add it to the shelf for this Challenge (remember that rereads doesn't count for the the GR Challenge).

Thank you for the question :)
