Zakiya LadyWings (zladywings) Good idea to put the page count! I'd better do that too.


message 3: by Zia (new)

Zia (zrg1) | 380 comments what i dont understand


message 4: by Zakiya (new)

Zakiya LadyWings (zladywings) She has the math problem on there to tell us how many pages she's read.


message 5: by [deleted user] (new)

But they don't count fully until I cross out the book title. Once I'm completely done with the book that will be the amount of pages I will be at.


message 6: by Zia (new)

Zia (zrg1) | 380 comments o ok now i get it.


message 7: by Zakiya (new)

Zakiya LadyWings (zladywings) that makes sense. Elyssa should be the one giving permission to do stuff. She should be the Head Mod....


message 8: by [deleted user] (new)

*Blushing* I'm not old enough to be head mistress! LOL


message 9: by Zakiya (last edited Jan 03, 2010 06:41PM) (new)

Zakiya LadyWings (zladywings) Well I don't really care about that! You've got the most experience of all the people that get on here the most! You are like the Answerer to everyone's problems!! LOL


message 10: by [deleted user] (new)

I've always been the listener. Ask and I shall respond!


message 11: by [deleted user] (new)

Total is 3,466 so far. I'm racking up those pages.


message 12: by [deleted user] (new)

3,794 pages. It took me awhile to get through Wicked Lovely.


message 13: by Jordan (new)

Jordan (flyinglogicmonkey) | 181 comments What did you think of Wicked Lovely?


message 14: by [deleted user] (new)

It was another just ok. It took me three days to get through basically 300 pages. Not good. But the ending was great. I def want to read the next in the series.


message 15: by Zia (new)

Zia (zrg1) | 380 comments Hi


message 16: by [deleted user] (new)

Hello, Zia!

Over 4,000 pages! Do I smell.... AWESOMENESS?


message 17: by Zakiya (new)

Zakiya LadyWings (zladywings) Haha, you should! Because you are!! :)


message 18: by Ayunda (new)

Ayunda (ayundabs) yes, you ARE awesome!!


message 19: by [deleted user] (new)

*Happy Dance* *Happy Dance* *Happy Dance*


message 20: by Zakiya (new)

Zakiya LadyWings (zladywings) Are the Happy Dances long? Because if so, you're going to be very tired!

If you keep reading at this rate, you'll have 10,000 pages read by mid-March!


message 21: by Kate (new)

Kate (katemreads) | 225 comments Hey Elyssa, I can't believe that you have that many pages already! I hope you don't mind but can I possibly...adopt your adding of the books pages together I'm trying to figure out a system but so far I've come up with nothing.


message 22: by [deleted user] (new)

Most defiantly. If it works for you.

message 25: by [deleted user] (new)

Hello, peeps. Here I am. I updated and completed my pathetic list of finished reads for February. I did break 6,000 pages.

I'm not going to let that happen again. Here comes March and I have a great book I plan on finishing really quick!!


message 26: by [deleted user] (new)

Working on book 2 for March... Whoop!


message 27: by Zakiya (new)

Zakiya LadyWings (zladywings) LOL, at least you've got a good start! I'm reading three books, and my life is very busy right now so everything's really confusing. I barely have any time to read. :(


message 28: by [deleted user] (new)

That is how I was last month. I feel so horrible when I can't pick up a book and relax!


message 29: by Zakiya (last edited Mar 10, 2010 02:22PM) (new)

Zakiya LadyWings (zladywings) Thats' how I feel this month! LOL; maybe everyone just a certain month that they're busy and can't read like they want to. Is that logical/practical/possible? Haha ;)


message 30: by [deleted user] (new)

I just get way too tired. Sometimes I feel like I'm on goodreads way too much. It really kills some of my reading time.


message 31: by Andrez (new)

Andrez (andrez-ssi) I know, sometimes I feel that too, btw, what did you think of sherylin kenyons book?


message 32: by [deleted user] (new)

I really enjoy her books. After spending so much time reading heavy books for college it is nice to read some fluffy fun romance books. :) I just don't need to use my brain so much for them. But I would be lying if I said I didn't really enjoy them. Because I do!


message 33: by [deleted user] (new)

Finished another one. The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian was a really good book.


message 34: by Zakiya (last edited Mar 14, 2010 02:33PM) (new)

Zakiya LadyWings (zladywings) Well at least you finally read a book for the March challenge. :)


message 35: by [deleted user] (new)

Working on book two for that challenge. This time I just picked the challenge. Most times I have several books to read when I come up with a challenge. So, this time it took me a bit to get a book and want to read it. That and this month is kicking my butt too. Ah, life.


message 36: by Zakiya (new)

Zakiya LadyWings (zladywings) LOL, but c'est la vie! Haha, I'm almost done with LW, and my mom got me four new books today! :)


message 37: by Andrez (new)

Andrez (andrez-ssi) cool!


message 38: by [deleted user] (new)

She really buys a lot of books. You will never not have anything to read! How are the library trips going?


message 39: by [deleted user] (new)

I'm listening to Little Women...


message 40: by Andrez (last edited Mar 19, 2010 09:31AM) (new)

Andrez (andrez-ssi) cool


I want to listen to the lion the witch and the wardrobe, my first audiobook!!

what do you think of audiobooks?


message 41: by Zakiya (new)

Zakiya LadyWings (zladywings) Elyssa, we still haven't made it to the library because I still have so many books to read. LOL :)

LeONor, I don't really do the whole audiobook thing. I'm okay with it, but I have to have the book in front of me to follow along or I get really confused. ;)


message 42: by Ayunda (new)

Ayunda (ayundabs) I only have one audiobook, and I haven't read - listen to it. So I still don't know..


message 43: by Andrez (new)

Andrez (andrez-ssi) when i listen to it, ill have my opinion formed though i want to hear it mostly because of the pronunciation


message 44: by [deleted user] (new)

I listen to audio books while I drive. Otherwise I read the old fashion way. For driving I say they are excellent. Or long trips. Even when I ride it is sometimes hard to focus on the words so I like to listen instead.


message 45: by [deleted user] (new)

Just did a little edit to my March reads. Not too many days left to get books read for this month. Boo! I'm not doing to well.
