Nic (bibliolicious_reads) | 77 comments Hello,

There is currently no page count showing for this book (Jonathan Abernathy You Are Kind, ISBN 9780008589172). I can confirm from my copy that it should be 354 pages.

In addition, it seems to have been separated from other editions of the same book: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...

Thanks!

Greg | 9755 comments Hi Nic,

WorldCat is the preferred source for page counts for printed books and they have this one listed with 368 pages.

Do you have the book in hand? What is on pages 355 through 368? Some things we can count and others we cannot.

Included end material may include acknowledgments, afterwords, appendices, bibliographies, glossaries, indexes, notes, and suggested discussion questions.

We don’t count the pages used for advertisements, preview chapters for other books or introductory material paged using roman numerals.

Thanks.

Hi Greg. Page 354 is the very last page in the copy I have. There is no afterword or anything - nothing at all except the back cover. But I completely understand that you may prefer to go with Worldcat as a more authoritative source than me!

Greg | 9755 comments Done - thanks for the reply. As long as you've verified that your copy is the same ISBN as listed on the book page, a book in hand trumps all other sources.

I also added the publisher and date published.
