As the readathon is drawing to a close, I would like to thank everyone for taking part. I see some people have finished putting their page numbers in, as usual, I will start taking note of these numbers when I get home tonight from work, and as usual, I hope to get the final number by this Thursday, so you all have until then. If you do get your final page numbers after that, I'm afraid they won't be counted.

I think my total is 82 pages. Not a great weekend for reading but every little helps."
In future, can you please keep your page totals to one post.

I have started to add your page numbers to my spreadsheet. Just waiting on 12 people, but you have until Thursday/Friday to do so. I have to say, I'm impressed by the numbers so far, you all did really well.
I won't give the final total yet but I will tell you that we smashed our target of 10,000 pages.

*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.
