I've just checked my stats (pages) wasn't aware of this possibility before your question in the other thread and I just barely crossed 25,000 so in my eyes you are a hero :-)

I'm a primary teacher who took early retirement. Many of the books I read are children's so are quick reads and, because all teachers have to read a lot to get their marking done, I'm a relatively quick but thorough reader. Add in more time to read when I want . . . . I asked a friend how many she thought I'd have read and she guessed higher!

Cool, I went for the wrong job :-)
Awesome job! I think we all should keep posting pages and see just how high we can get the total. We are at 100.43% of the goal, with an average pages per day of 3,487 - 27% over the goal for average pages.
We are on target to reach 1,273,000 pages by the end of the year. I think we can get to 1,300,000 or better. Let's keep it going!

Heading towards 2,000000.
In fact we would go well over that amount if more members added their totals, a shame.
But a great success for us all here and on our own lists.

We passed that, Sean - I think you missed two zeroes!
It's a great achievement. I've been planning all along to add my grand total at the end of the year! :)

Maybe more members might be doing that"
Genarally it's a good idea but not really a very acurate one :-)
When I wanted to loock up the # of pages for some Kindle-books without a proper book page number on the kindle / kindle-app I realized sometimes it's not listed in the library.
Last week I just included the column # of pages into my books and realized only then how often its really the case - and all these pages are missing in the stats as long we won't feed it into the library. I started to do it but the day has only 24 hours :-)
