I've been gone a while. I started reading fanfiction to escape and I got sucked in an abyss.

I have no idea if someone else is hosting similar challenges. I just grabbed some of what I have hosted before.

Here's to a happy year of great reading
Jan2023: Not much has changed. Writing a fanfiction now O_o as well as reading but I bought 7 new books in December and hope to get those read soon. Crossing fingers about adding challenges (late!)

2019RC Pages Read


Pages Read
2019

Hosted here at The Lair




How many pages can you read this year?

This challenge isn't about how many books you read but rather how many pages. After all, it isn't fair that I might read 4 titles and another might read 2 titles but we've read the same number of pages!

There is one hard rule, one just for general courtesy, several guidelines and eight levels.

Hard Rules
  • The book in question must have an ISBN or equivalent. If you can buy it or borrow it, it counts - which just means that all those on-line serials I read don't count ;-)
General Courtesy
  • When you sign up in the linky, put the direct link to your post. That way we can find it.
Guidelines
  • You can list your books in advance or as you read them. You can also change your list.
  • Any genre or length of book counts.
  • Anyone can join, you don’t need to be a blogger, just let me know in the comments.
  • Reviews are good but not necessary. Once again, you don't need to be a blogger, there are lots of places to post reviews. Hopefully, they'll link up so we can read them.
  • You may move up a level but not down.
  • Crossovers for other challenges count 
  • Books started before January 1st, 2017 don’t count - unless you start over ;-)

Levels
Bonsai - Read 12,000 pages
Shrub - Read 24,000 pages
Dwarf Peach - Read 36,000 pages
Apple Tree - Read  48,000 pages
Oak - Read 60,000 pages
Douglas Fir - Read 72,000 pages
Sequoia - Read 84,000 pages
Redwood - Read 84,001+ pages

I am looking forward to participating again. Last year my goal was 24,000 and I ended up reading 32,000+ so I have upped my goal to 36,000. Hopefully I can reach that.

Hi, is reading ebooks counted? Sorry new to this lol

Andi said...

I often read books that, while serious literature, are so old they do not have ISBN. Some of these are huge! They cannot be counted?

oh i needed this. I always feel guilty for indulging in books when there is work to be done elsewhere. This will be just the excuse I need! thank you.

I have never counted my pages before. It will be interesting to see how many I have read by the end of the year. Thanks for hosting!
