Book Talk Reading Challenge April 2025 || RESULTS P.100|| - Page 7

Usually all ebooks will also have a page count, so just use that to calculate the number of pages you read in April. If you're reading several books in April and don't finish any of them, the DNF rules will apply - just add the number of pages that you read in each book.

If you don't find page numbers, you can use the total page count and percentage read to calculate.

I use large font, so my books would have more pages than you guys, isliye poocha

I do want to take part though, I will try to read 2 books

Agar pages na count kar saki to I will make an estimate based on the percentage read, if i finish the book then I will count pages based on Amazon hardcover print. Is that ok?

For eg: Even if you were reading The Rom-commers in large print and the total number of pages comes to 650, you would still log 325 pages (paperback: Amazon) or 336 pages (Hardcover: Good Reads). Similarly for Audiobooks - you just check the Amazon print page count and log those many pages. If you DNF an Audiobook, then you can calculate at the rate of 40 pages read (listened to) in an hour at normal speed. Does that make sense?

It doesn't matter if you read more pages because of font size, even I adjust font size on my Kindle while reading. You just use the standardized format (paperback or mass market copy) to log in the pages like I showed you in the SS above.

I didnt understand the last bit in bold, but thats ok, ill just try to finish 2 whole books and log their pages using Amazin.

Sign me up for 6 to 10 books.

I don’t think I can do more than that with my work schedule.

Do you read Audiobooks? Otherwise, don't worry about it

Nope, only epub format on iPhone

Also, do IF FFs/OS count if I round every 300 word to one page?

Ri, how do we log audio books? Just asking in case I do end up switching.

And if we read FFs, what is the total word count for it to be considered a book. since reading OS wouldnt be fair and cannot be counted as one book.

We've decided to include FFs and online fiction provided a word count is available but to avoid dealing with larger numbers and to accommodate most people who will be reading physcial &/or e-books, we ask that you log in number of pages by dividing the total word count by 300 (which is taken as the average ballpark figure for word count per print page) .

You will need to tell us the Book/ Fic name and the author's name in your post but will PM a link of the story to your team captain.

If this is acceptable to you to sign-up, please let me know how many books I can put you in for for April

If you DNF an audio book, then you will have to calculate how many pages you read based on the number of hours you listened to the Audio book.

The standard is 40 pages an hour at Normal speed.
