Cornelia (stage) | 86 comments Goodreads says, the page number is 600. In fact, the book has 656 pages.

Lady Jaye (lady-jaye) | 47 comments WorldCat has the number at 652 pages, so I amended it to that.


message 3: by Cornelia (new)

Cornelia (stage) | 86 comments The text reaches until page 652, but the book itself has more.

Deborah | 390 comments What's on the four additional pages?


message 5: by Cornelia (new)

Cornelia (stage) | 86 comments The first one is blank, the second and third publisher's advertisments (including the first book of the Albae series), the fourth is blank again.

Those don't count.

Cornelia (stage) | 86 comments That's not logic, because books start counting their pages from the first page on, wether it has text on it or not. ^^

oliviasbooks | 25 comments But it makes sense when you look at peoples' reading process stati, Cornelia.


message 9: by Cornelia (new)

Cornelia (stage) | 86 comments It doesn't make sense either, when the text starts on page 7...

No one wants to have to do arithmetic every time they update what page they are on.
