Well, I enjoy reading lengthier books so my total number of books will be far fewer than 250 (thankfully!). I think the longest book I read clocked in at 1100 pages.

For the page number challenge I decided to use the MMPB as standard for any ebooks I've read. Challenging yourself is the ultimate goal and the most important of all!
