i never asked how you liked Water for Elephants, though maybe its on your goodreads review, eh?
If your goal is to read 10K pages, then shouldn't almost 7K pages be 70%? Wouldn't 17.5% be 1750 pages?
Either way, I'm totally impressed :)
Laurelyn - water for elaphants was OK, would have preferred there be a more realistic twist at the end.
Allison - your math is correct, I had a typo in the post. my goal is 40K, not 10K. I corrected it.
