10,345 pages / 20,000 pages...I am a member of the Merfolk!
Since I am really ahead of my original goal of 20,000 pages, I would like to up my goal and try to be a Dragon this year (40,000 pages)! I may not make it but Dragon is a great goal to have :)

I've read lots of books this month but many were graphic novels (I found a great new SF series!). It means less pages turned, but more books read!
Here is what I read in February : 1603 pages
