Mindy | 21 comments I just purchased this book. I used the scan feature on the Goodreads app, and it's showing 288 pages for this book. The book ends on 266, but if the epilogue, acknowledgement and questions are to be included, then it would end on 273. If the table of contents and introduction are to be included, then add another 10 pages. Not sure what needs to be included, but if all that I mentioned is supposed to be included, then it should only be 283 pages. Thanks for taking the time to look into this.

Elbio (elbiocroce) | 118 comments the thing is that if you look for the book on amazon it shows 288 pages. and no page number on worldcat. we use those sites to check what people ask in this discussions. Some admin correct me if I am mistaken.

Epilogue is part of the story, no?

Not sure about acknowledgements and questions, if those pages are numbered or not.

Scott | 11376 comments Ok, I just did a Look Inside, and it looks like the last numbered page according to the table of contents, is the acknowledgements on page 271, so I would put that as the count.

The introduction would not be included.

Mindy | 21 comments So, will the book be updated to show 271 pages? Thanks!

If pages 272 and 273 (whether numbered or not) are questions, such as book group discussion questions, those pages would be included as well.

Mindy | 21 comments Actually 273 is the question page. Blank pages and an ad for her other books follow that and then it’s the back cover. So if question pages are included, then the last page number of the book should be 273. Please let me know when it’s been adjusted. Thank you!
