Interesting game ... I was doing this on a Chinese forum for two years. My list of completed readings for 2011 to date (only include English works):

- A History of Egypt, by Jason Thompson. I completed reading by mid-Feb, and then the toppling of Mubarak happened. An interesting coincidence
- Arabic Historical Thought in the Classical Period, by Tarif Khalidi
- History, John Arnold
- China Between Empires: The Northern and Southern Dynasties, by Mark Lewis
- Epilogue, by Hans Urs von Balthasar
- World History (the basics) , by Peter Stearns
- Islamic Historiography, by Chase Robinson
- Rethinking World History, by Marshall Hodgson

And then I have more time reading ... and started a trend of reading half-books rather than the whole book ....
