Byzantine Posted August 28, 2013 Author Share Posted August 28, 2013 Oh, and when I got home, the first thing I read was the Anne of Green gables books.... I'm not sure how many pages, as it was off of a kindle collection. Should we just say a thousand? How many is that? Okay, here are my rough book counts. I'll compare my list with AnneLine's later and hopefully I'll have just counted wrong. Just looking back a little, I can see that there are some places where I definitely messed up. I've read/finished Wisdom, We Still Hold These Truths, and Luke. By my count I'm at 28, but it looks like AnneLine's count is probably more accurate. Cartermia, 167 DTA, 75 Chrysophylax, 62 Catholicterp, 55 Byz, 28 AnneLine, 14 Arfink, 13 Christina T, 13 Ardil, 11 BG45, 11 Emily, 9 Doc Bomb, 8 LT, 8 Theresa, 8 Ampax, 7 LWS, 7 Ploomf, 6 FP, 5 Spem, 5 Trisha, 5 Crusader, 3 Btw DTA, that was really cool!

AnneLine Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Sheesh! DTA, we will have to call you our DARK HORSE ninja from now on!!!! :ninja: The rest of you can still pull some fast ones on the number of book counts. There are lots of short books, there are lots of books of the Bible that are WAITING to be read. Feeling LONELY in fact, looking for someone to read them. You can do an act of CHARITY toward them.... and if you say a prayer for their authors, you may even make a friend.... and a powerful friend if the author is in purgatory. So get busy. We have almost a week!!!!! Byz, the monkeys and I will make sure my excel chart is adding properly... .but if you find discrepancies let me know and we can knock heads together. I had planned to read this afternoon, but made the mistake of taking my book to bed with me... and I just woke up! :paperbag: not :bible: is my name right now. BUT... that means the Llibrary Llama can read ALL NIGHT... so be scared... be very scared..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deus te Amat Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 I just got back from the library. :evil: Byz -- I read the Anne series before the thread started, so we're not counting them. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheresaThoma Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Woot woot I think we are over the 100,000 pages (before EA and DtA added theirs in we were at just over 90,000 so we have definitely broken that mark let see how high it can go!)

AnneLine Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 (edited) I've read an absurd number of books since leaving the convent -- so many that I probably wont remember all the titles, but at least this thread will put all my times wasting to good use. :) Don't judge my book choices. The Name of the Wind (Patrick Rothfuss) -- 722 The Wise Man's Fear (ibid) -- 1107 The Innocent Mage (Karen Miller) -- 640 Empress (ibid) -- 717 (don't read -- weird) Path of Fate (Diana Pharaoh Francis) -- 369 The Sentinel Mage (Emily Gee) -- 509 Til WE Have Faces (C. S. Lewis) -- 313 The Magician's Guild (Trudi Canavan) -- 365 The Last Stormlord (Glenda Larke) -- 692 Shaman's Crossing (Robin Hobb) -- 607 The Assassin's Apprentice (ibid) -- 464 The Assassin's Quest (ibid) -- 757 The Royal Assassin (ibid) -- 675 A Wizard of Earthsea (Ursula K. Le Guin) -- 182 The Tombs of Atuan (ibid) -- 180 The Host (Stephenie Meyer) -- 619 (much better than Twilight) A College of Magics (Caroline Stevermer) -- 468 A Crack in the Line (Michael Lawrence) -- 323 Tamar (Mal Peet) -- 420 The Testing (Joelle Charbonneau) -- 352 Divergent (Veronica Roth) -- 487 Insurgent (ibid) -- 544 The Selection (Kiera Cass) -- 352 The Elite (ibid) -- 336 Matched (Ally Condie) -- 384 Crossed (ibid) -- 400 Reached (ibid) -- 512 Graceling (Kristin Cashore) -- 471 Black Prism (Brent Weeks) -- 679 The Night Angel Trilogy (ibid) -- 2003 Unfettered (Various Authors) -- 518 Father Elijiah (Michael O'Brien) -- 612 I read quite a few free ebooks from amazon when I first got home, but I was devouring pretty much anything and I don't really remember what I read specifically. I'll try to keep this better updated. Thanks! :) The above total is 17,779. Can I just put the total page total of the random books from amazon? or do the titles need to be listed as well? DTA... I get 17,167 for the count of the list of books in that list... will you re-add your numbers? Or did I miss a second list? You can wait for my full list, but you may want to see whether you see a math error. Generally the excel chart is pretty good, but I can transpose a number with the best of 'em..... And yes, I realize there are more documented below... pant pant pant... The Llama and the trained monkeys may ask for a raise....

cmaD2006 Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Considering that I was on retreat I can actually add at least 5 books to this mix. About 1200 pgs. Will add by tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BG45 Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Popping in between classes: The Last Man - Vince Flynn; 448 pages Tobit - Bible; dunno the pages Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnneLine Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 (edited) Welcome, CMaria! We'll look forward to getting your books for the count. We need name, author, and page numbers if you want pages counted. BG, for Bible, if people don't give me page counts, I can take 'em off my own Bible...but don't unless someone asks me to... sounds like that is a 'yes, please!' so I will give you my page count unless you give me your own (it might make a difference in the count, since translations vary, so let me know....)

arfink Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Add the complete collections of Axe Cop and Dr. McNinja to my totals over the past two weeks, I think that makes about 186 pages for Axe Cop and about 2080 pages for Dr. McNinja. Phew, it feels good to be caught up on all those, but it took a bloody long time to read it all! If you haven't read Dr. McNinja, and you like crazy action comics, you probably should read some.

the171 Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 A Thousand Splendid Suns- 384 pgs Revolutionary Mothers: Women in the Struggle for America's Independence- 200 pgs I'll look for the others I've read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ContemporaryCaflicCrusader Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 i read 2 page of a rulebook gotten and print from the web. No package in the mail yet with the big rulebooks lol. Hold on what about all the fantasy football magazines I bought and read and memorized this summer? What about rereading? How close are we to 100,000?
