as this is listed as an audio version, surely it shouldn't have a page count of 704 pages?


message 205: by lethe (new)

lethe | 16359 comments #204 For audio books, the "page" number is the number of hours rounded up. As the print versions all have around 400 pages, would 704 be the number of minutes instead? This title consists of 6 CDs.

WorldCat says 452 minutes. Set to 8 "pages".

TheFierceCat | 69 comments Hello !

This book has 448 pages instead of 428 according to edititor' s website (http://www.laffont.fr/site/phobos_t1_...)
The book : https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

Alos, can you add a description please :
Six prétendantes d'un côté.
Six prétendants de l'autre.
Six minutes pour se rencontrer.
L'éternité pour s'aimer.

Ils sont six filles et six garçons, dans les deux compartiments séparés d'un même vaisseau spatial.
Ils ont six minutes chaque semaine pour se séduire et se choisir, sous l'oeil des caméras embarquées.
Ils sont les prétendants du programme Genesis, l'émission de speed-dating la plus folle de l'Histoire, destinée à créer la première colonie humaine sur Mars.

Léonor, orpheline de dix-huit ans, est l'une des six élues.
Elle a signé pour la gloire.
Elle a signé pour l'amour.
Elle a signé pour un aller sans retour.
Même si le rêve vire au cauchemar, il est trop tard pour regretter.

And because it part of a series, can you change the title with "Phobos (Phobos #1).

Thank you.

Has to be pretty close, since a standard CD is 74min long.

message 214: by Stephanie (last edited May 11, 2015 04:11PM) (new)

Stephanie (stephaniereeds) | 2 comments ISBN 0-19-250472-X

(printed in book as: "SBN 19 250472 X"

Wrongly stated as having 425 pp. on Goodreads but should be 845 pp.

"The Small House at Allington"
by Anthony Trollope
Format/Edition: Hardcover; The World's Classics
Publisher: Oxford University Press, London
No year printed in book

Has 420 + 425 pages = 845 pp.
(For some reason, the numbering restarts after the first 420 pp, with no indication why).

Re 214, we would actually leave that at 425. We don't want users to have to do arithmetic to figure out what page they are on.

But it has 845 pages, not 425?


message 217: by rivka, Former Moderator (new)

And the last page of the book says 425.

message 222: by Farnz (new)

Farnz | 15 comments Hi, my copy of Mr Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore( ISBN 13: 9781443415798) has 288 pages rather than the 256 pages currently listed on goodreads. Amazon says the book has 304 pages, however the story ends at page 288 and the last six pages are blank. Thank you in advance.


message 223: by Abcdarian (new)

Abcdarian | 26579 comments #222: WorldCat agrees; fixed.

Sarah Elizabeth (bookworm_sarah) | 27 comments ISBN: 9783837129748

Another audiobook with a page count of 1046 pages. Surely this can't be right?

message 229: by Shaun (new)

Shaun (shaun2014) | 118 comments #228: WorldCat says 437 and no page count was found on Amazon. Therefore I matched the WorldCat count of 437.

Johnny (johnnyzevahc) | 66 comments 9781608463992
768 pages, not 600. Amazon and BN are wrong.


message 231: by Bea (new)

Bea #230 WorldCat says 735 pages, which is the one GR will use.


message 232: by Farnz (new)

Farnz | 15 comments Hi, my copy of "The Dinner" (isbn 9780385346856) has 310 pages rather than the 292 listed on Goodreads. Also, my copy of "The Ocean at the End of the Lane" (isbn 9780062255662) has 195 pages rather than 255. Thank you in advance.


message 233: by Shaun (new)

Shaun (shaun2014) | 118 comments #232 I updated "The Dinner", WorldCat agrees with that. Both WorldCat and Amazon say that "Ocean" has 181 pages for that ISBN. Can you please double check your copy that the ISBN is correct? Or check what is at the end of the book between pages 181 and 195?


message 234: by Farnz (new)

Farnz | 15 comments After page 181, there are 14 pages which includes a meet with Neil Gaiman, a reading group guide, and an interview with Gaiman.


Liam || Books 'n Beards (madbird) | 12 comments I don't believe we include pages that aren't numbered in the total.


message 236: by Farnz (new)

Farnz | 15 comments That's okay. The total number of pages is 181 rather than the listed 255 then.


message 237: by Shaun (new)

Shaun (shaun2014) | 118 comments Thanks Farnia and Liam, I don't think those pages count either. I updated the page count to match Amazon and WorldCat at 181, but hope a Mod or Super Librarian chimes in with the word on if that information is included.

The manual says that suggested discussion questions should be included in page count, but I don't know if that's the same as a "reading group guide". Since Worldcat mentioned 181, I'm inclined to just go with that, since it's considered a reliable source in the librarian manual.


message 238: by lethe (last edited May 23, 2015 01:45AM) (new)

lethe | 16359 comments #234-237 Unfortunately, GR does include those (it would be much simpler if they stuck to the international cataloguing rules for this, then we could blindly trust the library catalogues). Have corrected the page count to 195.

(The only things not included are excerpts from other/forthcoming books and adverts, anything to do with the book itself is included.)


message 239: by Shaun (new)

Shaun (shaun2014) | 118 comments Got it, thank you for looking and the explanation, lethe! It's much appreciated.
