I realize this was meant tongue-in-cheek, but it does bring up an interesting point. I often get omnibus editions when available, but I rarely want to read them all the way through in one go. So, if the works within were also published individually as books, I split them for "accounting" purposes. I mean, at the end, the number doesn't mean anything to anyone but me, so I do what makes sense for me.

What do others do?

(I think since we're talking about quantities of books read, it's relevant.)
