it should be 807, 410+1546 = 808, 956

You missed my 1,795 pages from less than a half hour ago, Arathi.

Hi Amber

The sum of 256+289+21+27+101+179+186+487 = 1,546

Hence the sum of 807, 410 +1,546 = 808, 956

I hope I got that right, isnt it?

I thought at first you MISSED the 21, Arathi. I don't know how I ended up with the figure I originally used.

808, 956 +435 = 809, 391

Cross Kills by James Patterson - 113 pgs

814,345 + 113 = 814,458

My total for August is 6,381 + 814,345 = 820,726

Total should have been
820,839 + my 388 pages for The Library at Mount Char by Scott Hawkins = 821,227

Veiled by Karina Halle = 313 pages
The House by Christina Lauren = 400 pages
The Young Elites by Marie Lu = 355 pages
821,227 + 1068 = 822,295

August pages for me were 1369

1369+822,295 = 823,664

823, 664 +128 = 823, 792

and The Shelters of Stone page 751 (finished 9/5)=1,968 pages

824,117+1,968=826,085

Amber, I believe your total is 1,970,
which when added to 824,117 gives a new total of
826,087.

My original post had the page count on Dead With The Wind off by 2 (291 not 293) and my particular copy of The Shelters of Stone had 751 pages, rather than the 754 pages GR says it should have, so according to my revised calculations, the page #'s are correct.

Okay, so total is 826,085

Clammed Up = 375 pages
Engaged in Murder = 288 pages
Truly Madly Guilty = 415 pages
Here's to Us = 416 pages

1494 + 826,085 = 827,579

253 pages

827,579 + 253 = 827,832

828,576 + 395 = 828,971

828,971+892=829,863 pages

Broken Promise by Linwood Barclay 484 pages

The Life We Bury by Allen Eskens 303 pages

787 + 829,863 = 830,650 pages

I'm not sure our total is correct. Amber, you added in the same list of books twice. I'm assuming it was corrected page numbers, but you didn't subtract your original post before adding in the correct number??

It's a progress report, Terri.

The Crediton Killings page 227
Out of Circulation: A Cat in the Stacks Mystery page 304 (finished 9/8)
Easy Weeknight page 104
Small Favor page 241
Frankenstein: A Cultural History page 39
From Homer to Harry Potter page 192
and The Leper of St Giles: The Fifth Chronicle of Brother Cadfael page 199 (finished 8/9)=1,306 pages

830,650+1,306+831,956 pages

But if it's a progress report and you're totaling up the pages each time, aren't you essentially adding in the same pages each time? I mean, if you read 10 pages in a book since your last progress report it doesn't look like you're adding 10 pages to our total count. It looks like you're adding those 10 pages AND the previous pages you added last time all over again. Do you understand what I'm asking? Like you just added a thousand and some pages to our total count when in reality you may have only read a hundred or so since your last progress report.
I guess I'm just confused why you don't add your total pages read after you finish the entire book. I'm truly not trying to be contrary with you. I honestly don't understand how you're adding in your actual pages read.

Finished



364 pages

If above is right just following on.

832,320.

You guys crack me up! I do good to keep track of which BOOK I am reading and who the cast of characters is. Shoot me now if I ever try to keep track of pages.

Hey T......... I think Amber is using the NEW MATH!!!! I use it all the time when I balance my checkbook, when it has missing checks.

Y'all simply amaze me.........

Christine and Jean.........do you girls keep track of your pages????

Little Black Dress by James Patterson - 108 pgs
Pumpkintown Perils: Book 1 by Aubrey Law - 262 pgs

832,320 + 370 = 832,690

All that's required is when you finish a book, note the number of pages in it, and add them to the running total here. Just be sure you are at the newest post in the thread.

Amber, I looked back at your posts since mid-July. I am confused as to what you are adding to the total. Are you adding all the pages you've read each day?

It appears you are adding the same books over and over, which means duplication of pages you've read.

Please clarify things for us so we can keep an accurate total.

Right now, I don't have any faith in our total, but here's my latest.

The Burning Air 336 pages

832,690 + 336 = 833,026

I don't think our total is accurate either, Brenda. But my latest is The Jersey Devil by Hunter Shea
833,026 + 378 = 833,404
