Also, this is probably a very dumb question, but I'm still new at this. Can someone explain to me the scoring system here? I understand the page count portion, but not the numbers in parenthesis or beside the page count.

C.P. Cabaniss (cpcabaniss) | 8238 comments Kaylin, sometimes we use a table which has things labeled. We didn't this month. So the first numer (beside the page count) are the points earned from reading/reviewing or buddy reads, then the page count, then the number in parenthesis is your current number of points which is a combination of the first number and points from number of pages. Hope that helps. :)
