47+48+48+153=296, Terri.
More times than I can count, the GR database is incorrect when it doesn't list the same edition that you're reading. That was the case with the book about the American Saddlebred horse. The GR database's only copy for that book has 32 pages, but my edition had 47. That said, I found the error in my typing and corrected it to show that the book about miniature horses had 48 pages.
Gary's total should be 1,293,515, plus Amber's 296 gives us a total of 1,293,811.
I'm not correcting until tomorrow. You have been warned, so be careful. I'm going out to lunch in a bit with my 1/2 brother Craig and I don't know if I'm coming back online today after that.
We all get it figured out in the end!

I wish GR would STOP turning (bleep) into links! See my previous post to see what I mean!

Don't know why you can't see that the word "diabetes" is a link in post 1886 and I can, Brenda, but I can clearly see that it is BOTH italicized and a link to some weird pseudoscientific c**p about diabetes. This is where you get sent if you click the stupid a** link on the word "diabetes" in the title of the book: http://latest-deals.info/diabetes/ind...
The stuff they're shilling here is pseudoscience because if there WERE a cure for type 2, either my primary doctor or my clinical pharmacist would have told me something about the direction the research is heading.
Sounds like it’s something your browser is doing, not Goodreads.
I can see a link in your post, too, Brenda. And another one in my previous post ( http://bestsearchlinks.com/?pchash=25... ) It's been happening since at least the end of August.Given that, so far this ONLY happens while I'm ON GR, it's NOT my browser. I've tried all three browser choices at the library and get the links on all three.
I didn’t put any link in my post, Amber. Does your library's computer have a virus? BTW, I did not click on either link you included as examples.

I know, I think I was the first to suggest our current goal. I think we will pass 1,500,000. I am hopeful we will clear this year's goal as well.
