Satin (satin_ss) | 365 comments Hi! I was wondering if a book that 215 pages ( which is only fifteen pages more than the amount allowed) would count for this challenge?

TY! ^_^


message 89: by Cendaquenta (new)

Cendaquenta | 307 comments I have a last-minute question, do audiobooks count for this, provided the print edition is <200pgs?


message 90: by chan (new)

chan (horizonous) Here are the books I read:

I'm Thinking of Ending Things by Iain Reid The Grownup by Gillian Flynn The Stepford Wives by Ira Levin
01. I'm Thinking of Ending Things by Iain Reid ★★★★★
02. The Grownup by Gillian Flynn ★★★★☆
03. The Stepford Wives by Ira Levin ★★★★☆

I have to say that I read them as ebooks and as always the page count is a bit off. In the case of I'm Thinking of Ending Things on my e-reader it has 136 pages but on Goodreads there are only editions with more than 200 pages which I unfortunately realised after reading it with this challenge in mind. I hope that's okay nonetheless?


message 91: by Cendaquenta (new)

Cendaquenta | 307 comments 13/15 - completed Carniepunk: Daughter of the Midway, the Mermaid, and the Open, Lonely Sea. 53 minutes long. Kindle edition states that in print it's about 32 pages.

And I think that's my lot for this challenge, there being only 12 hours left of the month in my time zone.

1/2

1. The Dispatcher (128 pages)

It was a slow reading month for me (a slow year--I really need to get back into it) so I only got one done.


message 94: by Candiss (last edited Aug 01, 2018 02:19PM) (new)

Candiss (tantara) | 996 comments I ended up completing my challenge by the end of the month, after all. I didn't think I was going to make it!
