    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 ....

    Rather than just continue listing, why don't we do a one line summary of the novel we've listed and mark it out of 10 or something? It might make the thread abit more useful than it is.
