It's not the last page of the text proper. I no longer have the book with me, but when I get a chance to look at it again I can tell you guys the last page of the text itself as well as what exactly is at the back. Then you can make a judgement about which number to use.
I apologize for not being more clear. In my experience the page count on Goodreads has nearly always included the index, notes, etc, so I thought that was the norm and I didn't need to worry about only counting up to a certain page.

But sometimes after the last numbered page there is more that should be included in the page count, such as the last partially filled page of text (of a novel, for instance), or a Readers' Q & A, or the index/notes/bibliography, etc.
The last numbered page is 396.
This is the hardcover.
Thank you!
