And it is ON! You can now start reading books like crazy fantasy writers and racking up your totals. :D

This thread is solely for reporting page totals. Please do not chat in this thread! (Chatty posts may be deleted without warning.) Only post when you've finished a new book.

When posting your totals, try to follow this format:
Quote:
Read a book, then post the title, author, and number of pages in one of the Summer Read-a-Thon forum threads. At the bottom of your post, keep a running total of pages you’ve read so far. Here’s a sample:

Quote:
Treasure Island, by Robert Louis Stevenson. 336 pages.

Pippi Longstocking, by Astrid Lindgren. 160 pages.

The Cricket in Times Square, by George Selden. 144 pages.

Running total: 640 pages


It is recommended that participants use a calculator to add up their running total.


For complete rules and details on the contest, go here: viewtopic.php?f=35&t=3411

And they're off! :dieshappy:

Just a reminder from a mod (and a counter!) - please, no chatting in this thread! Jordan and I are going to be going insane keeping up with your totals as it is, so please make it easy on us. :D If you want to ask someone a question, hit the "PM" button!

ALSO... when posting your totals, please just post the new books. Do not keep a running list of books, just a running total of pages. The reason for this is that it makes it easier for the counters to see which books you are adding so we can double-check your math.

Thanks!
