Can 1,000,000 Pages Be Read In 2022?
Our current total is 497,239. Sean mistakenly listed a wrong total.
How long after the year ends can we post, I might do it when I am completely finished with the year for my count.
497,239 + 32 = 497,271Dark Shadows: Year One #1: Digital Exclusive Edition
3 stars for the story. My review here - /review/show...

499, 008 + 288 = 499,296The Atlantis Cipher
An action adventure book which can be read as a stand alone novel as well.
