Amber, you had an extra "1" in the beginning of your total, (a "1" both before and after the comma) and that is what she was commenting on. You wrote: 1,197,549+592=1,1198,141 pages


message 1607: by Terri (new)

Terri  Wino (terriwino) | 2488 comments So our current total after the addition of Arathi's pages is 1,198,477

message 1627: by Amber (new)

Amber Martingale Since I read it already earlier this year, it's up to the thread admins to decide whether or not they want to add the 32 pages The Christmas Day Kitten by James Herriot again.


message 1628: by Terri (new)

Terri  Wino (terriwino) | 2488 comments Amber, did you read it a second time? If so, I would say to add it because we're counting pages read and those are 32 additional pages that you read. JMO.

Yeah, it was a reread because I forgot I'd already read it and counted the pages earlier this year, Terri.

Since the prevailing opinion is for me to add it again, here's the breakdown:

The Christmas Day Kitten 32 pages
Asian Flavors Diabetes Cookbook: Simple, Fresh Meals Perfect for Every Day* 145 pages
Dark Chocolate Demise (Cupcake Bakery Mystery #7)** 284 pages
and The Prophecy of Death (Knights Templar #25)** 336 pages=797 pages

*My copy
**My copies and I also no longer count previews of other series by the same author or appendices like the ones in Tolkien's The Return of the King in my page count since I don't actually read the previews OR the info dump in the appendices! I have had quite enough of THAT with the Jean M. Auel Earth's Children series beginning with The Clan of the Cave Bear!

1,213,234+797=1,214,031 pages
