Can 1,750,000 Pages Be Read In 2017?
79,535 + 199 = 79734Once upon a time in a city of criminals - Mark Barry
I'm not able to do the correction myself at the moment, but I feel like we are missing Maureen's 5000+ pages in our current total.
Dana, the post I see of Maureen's only listed 2 books, but says 5,000+ pages. Because it only lists 2 books, I wasn't sure if she had a typo, so I corrected her post to add in only the 2 books listed. If Maureen can list her other books making up the 5,000+ pages, we absolutely want to add them to our total.
In Such Good Company by Carol Burnett80,470 + 286 = 80,756

No problem Dana! I hope Maureen will double check her last post and, if there were other books that she neglected to list, make sure they get added to our total. :)
Academ's Fury: Codex Alera #2 534 pagesAmerican Girl: Meet Samantha 61 pages
American Girl: Samantha Learns a Lesson (A School Story) 61 pages
The Summer of the Danes: The 18th Chronicle of Brother Cadfael 251 pages
and Murder and Marinara (An Italian Kitchen Mystery #1) 326 pages=1,233 pages
78,207+1,233=79,440
Amber, I believe you added to an old total, so it should be:1,233 + 82,443 = 83,676
304 pages304 + 83,676 = 83,980
I didn't see an answer on which page version to use. I have been going by the goodreads listing as I often read large print books that are a lot more pages if I counted that way. e-readers also give different numbers depending on your settings and type of reader.
Delusion by Joanna Elm - 384 pgs83,980 + 384 = 84,364
Sweet Water by Christina Baker Kline - 304 Pages84,914 + 304 = 85,218 pages
Starboard Secrets by Hope Callaghan - 278 pgs85,218 + 278 = 85,496
Alton Brown: EVERYDAYCOOK: this time it's personal 224 pages85,918+224=86,142 pages

Israt, I'm looking forward to the new book in the Dresden Files. I think it's supposed to be called Peace Talks. If you want to read anything else Jim's written, you can read the Codex Alera series.

After finishing Dresden I will definitely give Codex Alera series a try. :D
I would recommend you skip Ghost Story, Israt. It moves as slowly as a constipated 3 toed sloth.The Codex Alera series is both an LOTR-style swords-and-sorcery epic high fantasy AND, ultimately, a tribute to the sacrifices made by soldiers and their families since the beginning of warfare, even though the Aleran Legions, especially the First Aleran in Cursor's Fury, are physically modeled after the legions of the Roman Empire.
