Can 1,750,000 Pages Be Read In 2017?
Kafka on the Shore by Haruki Murakam- 505 pages15,184 + 505 = 15,689
The actual total with Sean's addition is 15,995

Going good, guys, considering only 8 days in!
Miami Requiem by J.B. Turner - 405 pgs17,089 + 405 = 17,494
310 pages17,494 + 310 = 17,804
Wow...only nine days into '17 and we've already read over 17.5K pages.
Finding Audrey by Sophie Kinsella - 286 pages18,156 + 286 = 18,442

I looked at it a different way. 18,442 divided by 9 days, then multiplied by 365. That calculates out to about 750,000. We have a long way to go, but we've met our goal twice before!!!

Many people have just returned from vacation and are just now getting back to serious reading.
I think that should be 18,442 + 292 = 18,734
as Sean added to an old total.

Thanks, Terri!
I'm confident that the total will be reached. As long as it's fun getting there. I'm halfway through I Am Pilgrim. It's a big one!
Ha! Now I am so nervous about my math! I hope Gary, Terri (or anybody!) can double check me too!Dark Matter 342 pages
The Woman in Cabin 10 340 pages
18,734 + 682 = 19,416
Don't be nervous Vicki! We've all got each other's back here and check on the math. Trust me...I will screw up at some point and someone will catch it and correct it. :)
Below the Belt by Stuart Woods
19,768 + 321 = 20,089
Double Bind by Chris Bohjalian13779 + 368 pages = 14147
Corrected both Nicole's and Cheryl's totals. 22.661 + 666 = 23,327
I'm sorry, I don't know how that happened...that was the number I saw before mine!
Colleen Cover - Small Favors - 229 pagesJohn Lewis - March: Part One - 128 Pages
Berkeley Breathed - Bloom County Episode XI: A New Hope - 144 pages
23,327 + 501 = 23,828

- 612 pages.612 + 25,597 = 26,209
Arathi wrote: "The correct total should be 24,999"I disagree. I think the 23,828 right above Arathi's post is correct. So, adding everything up to and including Janet's, the total is 25,038.
Holy hell. How'd we get this far this fast?
