I am planning on reading plays - norton editions, if not them, then penguin ones along with their critical essays

Cool. If you find them on Amazon, great - just use page counts from there. If not, try ISBN or some other publisher's website. Otherwise, just log actual pages (if it's a physical copy you're holding)

The Queen of reading is here! smiley36 Shonali, we're in the same team again. It would have been great if you participated as a regular member instead of honourary member. Then the total page count of our team would have been the highest due to your incredible speed.

Hi Muskan! We're in the same team. Which Bengali books are you planning to read in May?

I haven't decided yet...My mom is in hospital.

Oh, I'm very sorry to hear that. I hope she recovers quickly. You can take a break from the reading challenge if you want. You can skip this month and participate in the next month once your mother recovers completely.

Acha today I spent most of my day reading through the 7-part series of Katha Amrita Saman by Dr. Bhaduri to make a summary of all of them. 200-300 pages approx...should I be logging it? smiley36

You don’t have to log your pages everyday. Just log the total pages in the book when you finish it

Nah, I mean I read through all 7 books, I needed to make a selective summary, so I read through cursorily to find things (my copies do not have an index smiley37 ), and properly read about 300ish pages, and probably won't reread the whole thing again this month. So, I was wondering should I log it based on that?

I mean it's okay either way, I did my 200 so I'm good either way smiley36

Ahh okay, you mean you skimmed for referencing? We’re not counting skimmed pages smiley9
