Geoffrey (jeff_readsalot) | 267 comments Hi!

Would it be possible to add a page number to Laurine Roux's newest edition of "Le Sanctuaire" (ISBN: 9782072934025) please?

I couldn't find a page number on Worldcat but the publisher's website has it at 144p.

Thanks in advance!

Nadia Wijayanti (nadiawija) | 547 comments Hello, do you not have this book in hand? The publisher's website is not our preferred source of page numbering since they sometimes count pages that we don't and vice versa.


Geoffrey (jeff_readsalot) | 267 comments Hi!

I do have the book in hand. The story itself is 128p long. It is preceded by the title page (1p), a copyright page (1p), a biography of the author (1 page), a dedication (1p) and an epigraph (1p). Story is followed by acknowledgments (1p) which would bring the total of pages to 134p if we ignore the blank pages.

I hope this helps!

Nadia Wijayanti (nadiawija) | 547 comments Thank you for the info! What is the last numbered page? Is the last numbered page 128 for the story and then followed by an unnumbered acknowledgements page?


Geoffrey (jeff_readsalot) | 267 comments First numbered page (first page of the story) is p13 and last page is p141 so 141-13 = 128p for the story. The acknowledgments page is indeed unnumbered.

The pages before the story are unnumbered as well. I tried to be as comprehensive as possible since I didn't know which pages Goodreads takes into account :)

Nadia Wijayanti (nadiawija) | 547 comments Thank you for the info! We do not actually subtract from the final page count to determine the "actual" number of pages; we simply list the number on the last page with countable content. So, in this case, the number of page is 142, correct? Or is there a blank page between page 141 and the acknowledgments page?


Geoffrey (jeff_readsalot) | 267 comments In this instance, the last numbered page is 140, then page 141, then a blank page and finally the acknowledgments.
