Good idea to put the page count! I'd better do that too.

what i dont understand

She has the math problem on there to tell us how many pages she's read.

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.

o ok now i get it.

that makes sense. Elyssa should be the one giving permission to do stuff. She should be the Head Mod....

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

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

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

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

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

What did you think of Wicked Lovely?

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.

Hi

Hello, Zia!

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

Haha, you should! Because you are!! :)

yes, you ARE awesome!!

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

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!

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.

Most defiantly. If it works for you.

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!!

Working on book 2 for March... Whoop!

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. :(

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

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 ;)

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.

I know, sometimes I feel that too, btw, what did you think of sherylin kenyons book?

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!

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

Well at least you finally read a book for the March challenge. :)

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.

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

cool!

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

I'm listening to Little Women...

cool


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

what do you think of audiobooks?

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. ;)

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

when i listen to it, ill have my opinion formed though i want to hear it mostly because of the pronunciation

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.

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.

I fixed it. :P
