Edurne, for future reference, can you please stick to editing your original post. It's so I don't miss your updates.
Whoops I was so tired when I totalled mine I missed some out! Message 12 correct now!
Has this been added up somewhere that I've missed? How did we do?
Mod
Well Done everyone.

*An easy way to keep track is using the Currently Reading feature on Goodreads, entering your page number at the end of each day. **For those who read by eReader, take the page number which shows for paperback/hardcover here on Goodreads for your total. Calculate by percentage to work out your page number read.
***For audio listeners, check out how many pages the book has on Goodreads, then divide that number by how many CDs or hours it is to give you an idea of pages per time. Don't forget to post your totals of daily or full weekend tally on the thread.
