message 1303: by Winter, Group Reads (new)

Winter (winter9) | 4998 comments I found a version that had 447 pages and that seemed more correct and probably just the book, not introduction to the author and such.

message 1337: by Cassandra (new)

Cassandra | 5832 comments Blagica: The best way is to search on Goodreads for the book and grab the page number from a print edition. Does that make sense? If you need to know specifically where to find the page number, let me know!


message 1338: by David (last edited May 25, 2015 10:55AM) (new)

David Goal is 50,000' but why list the books when the stats post the munger of pages read year to date. I,m now at 22341.


message 1339: by Cassandra (new)

Cassandra | 5832 comments You don't need to if you don't want to, David. I'll add you to the list! Please come back here and update us periodically so I can update your progress.

message 1341: by Cassandra (new)

Cassandra | 5832 comments Awesome! Since you've been adding books to your challenge, it's actually already counting your pages. You've already read 12,131 pages. Do you want me to add that to your total, or do you want to start from scratch with the 50k goal?

Is there a way for me to get the page number from the challenge since that is where I put my books first? i was going to sit with a calculator and add them but if there is an easier way i would love it =)


message 1344: by Cassandra (new)

Cassandra | 5832 comments Here's a step-by-step guide (if you're on a computer, I'm not sure about tablet/mobile):

1. Go to My Books.
2. On the left sidebar, click the link that says "stats."
3. This page will show you how many books you've read for each year. To see pages, choose the "pages" option near the top.

Then you can periodically check that page or start adding up your own list from this point forward - it's up to you!

Does that answer your question?
