Of course! It's all the same to us.

Can I count the time that I spend reading a book even if I don't finish it?

Can I join the program after its official start date?

Definitely! And if you can remember any reading that you've done after the official start date, you're welcome to go back and count that.

Actually, we do ask that you count only the reading you've done within the official dates of the program. But that still gives you plenty of time to join in the fun!
