Pages read in January: ~1887
Average per day: ~60
Average rating: 4.14 (3.47 if you count all 20 Grimm's fairy tales)

I've also read the first 20 short stories of "The complete Grimm's Fairy Tales" of which there are 210. I plan on reading it throughout the year. I'm rating each story individually so I can average them out when i'm done for an overall rating. I'm going to count collections of short stories as only one book (otherwise it'd be crazy) but bind ups, like Alice in wonderland/Through the looking glass, each book separately only because that's easier for me. I am mostly enjoying the fairy tales so far. :) Counting the pages
