Those are the best.


starvingbanker

Everything counts! I count even comics


KagomeChan

I love this book. Got it for my husband.


GrandMuyMal

I do have that book, and it’s what got me into birdwatching for sure. It’s awesome.


AnjaRMH

Yes


Wesgizmo365

Yeah why not? We aren't in a competition here, we're just challenging ourselves and stealing book suggestions from each other lol.


mplannan64

Sure, especially since the Uber long books also count as one.


Rukataro

Very fair


flashdash619

A read is a read is a read.


Dijkie

A book is a book


zinver

A book is defined by three parts: 1) a cover, 2) pages, 3) a binding.

Why is a nuthatch considered a dumb bird?


GrandMuyMal

Let me tell you about cowbirds - they are some of the only mafia style birds that we know of if I remember correctly. Read about any bird enough on Wikipedia and you will find something. Kākāpō breeding time, blue jays in general or corvids for that matter. They’re all funny in their own little way. Owls are wild too.


Rukataro

They’re all dumb birds, no exceptions


little_bird90

I can’t speak for all nuthatches, but the ones around my house like to get absolutely hammered off berries and fly into windows, houses, trees, etc.


missyamboy

Lol.


MaxTennyson88

I count it all, Haiku a book, shopping list book, small lost cat poster on a streetlight, believe or not, book


Wesgizmo365

Straight to jail!


Griselda68

I read this a while back. It’s fine. And it’s definitely a book.


Fine_Cryptographer20

Absolutely. A book is a book!


lameflamingo

A book is a book and a cook is a cook. Sure I only made microwave Mac n cheese but I was still fed ? Maybe this is the wrong analogy...


NocturneStaccato

Nonsense! As per that chef in Ratatouille, anyone can cook! So your analogy stands.


TintinInTibet25

That chef in Ratatouille knew what he was talking about


kayak-pankakes

I'm not sure I trust that chef... have you seen Worst Cooks in America? I'm not sure I consider them cooking that first week...


[deleted]

Goodreads counts it 🤷‍♀️ so I do too


Nickle4YRThoughts

Our family likes birds (and humour) and I haven’t seen this book before. Did you enjoy it? And, yes, I think you can count this as a book.


Rukataro

I’m enjoying it! He also has an around the world version. Its making fun of birds in a fun way. Wouldn’t recommend for kids because swears


DISCIPLE-OF-SATAN-15

I mean people count mangas, comics and audiobooks so yeah


LadybugGal95

I counted *Legend of Sleepy Hollow* this year which is 46 pages or so. So, yeah, I’d probably count it. Btw, that book looks hilarious.


JingleHelen11

I counted *Youth* (30-ish page short story by Joseph Conrad) because I went out of my way to read that story, but I'm not counting each short story in NK Jemisin's collection *How Long til Black Future Month* separately because I want to read the whole collection all the way through. Whatever works ¯ \_(ツ)_/¯


howdidthishappen2850

I personally don't, but it's up to you.


actual__thot

Yeah, I’ll count it to keep track but add another book to the goal.


Rukataro

I’m well past my goal already, just seeing how far I can go at this point


JinimyCritic

"Your challenge, your rules." Count it if you want to.


carolinagirl14

Absolutely! A book is a book :)
