The Maze Runner.

400 pages.

I'm seeing all this reading, but Cathinterp7, despite your fancy fingering (he he he), you only get credit for one readings' worth of pages for Talking Hands.... ;)

 

see all the rest of the stuff from the rest of you & will update when I next update. 

 

Welcome back, Miles, and be sure to look up page count if you want that counted.... either from the books or from Amazon....

 

LWS... did you see the link I put in your status update feed... it has the official catechesis on the Scapular in there... and probably is good for 5 or 6 pages, too.... ;)    (Since none of the Church Scholars have answered your query, AnneLine is sharing with you what we give to our SECULAR CARMELITES to read on this subject....)

Unless, of course, you actually did read it 3 times... :)

Done with LOTR!!!

 

The Return of the King, 293 pages

 

And now... I don't know what book is next. The Butter Battle Book is waiting, by Dr. Seuss, I'm probably going to grab something in Spanish, I have a book on St. Therese (Conversations with Therese of Lisieux) that I've started, I still have that library book (The Catholic Mystique), I should read Christy....

A few comments for the bean counting service:

1) 365 books read. Excellent. I like it when numbers show up like that....

2) I don't think you added in the page count for The Two Towers.... It was 338 pages.

3) I like how you added LOTH to my "in progress" list. If I'm not regular every day does it still count? I'm trying, but I fluctuate in regularity at times.

 

That sounds reasonable to me. It requires the honor system, but the whole competition is on the honor system anyway and we should be able to trust each other reasonably.

Bumping this, since I asked a question in point #3 and I guess you missed it.

I didn't forget it, Christina Therese... been thinking about #3.

 

The relevant section for you is....

 

In Progress: 

Morning, Evening & Office of Readings

from LOTH for the summer

(approx 700 pages)

Night Prayer from LOTH for the summer

(approx 200 pages)

 

 

I'm glad you liked my adding LOTH in there.  There are people who want it in there, and people who don't.  Your choice!  If anyone else wants it added, just let me know.....

 

I also try to get it in and do most of the time, but I also fluctuate in regularity.  (This has been true for... about 40 years now, btw....).   After all that time, I am aiming for a regular habit (done most days) rather than 'perfection'  -- because it is abount connecting with God and praying for the Church more than it is about AnneLine having perfect attendance.  I've had to face that reality is that there are just days it doesn't happen, no matter how hard I try...... 

 

This is how I would call it -- but you have to decide for yourself.  If MOST of the time you're getting to it, I'd count it.... if you get there about 1/2 time, count a 'half a serving'... or whatever the proportion is.  If you decide you don't want to get that public, you can always just not 'do' that part of the reading, right?  Then it is just a checklist reminder for yourself... kind of an examen point.   I've got it on my list as a reminder that I want to work at getting more faithfully.... we can pray for each other on this one.....

 

And I'm about 1/3 of the way through Christy, and I am enjoying re-acquainting myself with all the people in there that I enjoyed when I read it before..... sometimes I really like re-reading books.....

I finished more books! (Although my stack of books to read is not deminishing, because everytime I go to the library I bring home more books than I returned!)

 

Without Fail    by Lee Child (549 pgs) Pretty good! I'm looking forward to reading the first one in the series.
Unlocking the Spell     by E. D. Baker (261 pgs) This book was amazing! Another winning fairy tale!
