Books I read this year

So Nakul tagged me. Hmph! I've already told him earlier I think this is a silly meme, but I'm in holiday spirit, so what the hell. I'll even see if I can pass it along.

Honestly, I really don't think I remember all of the books I read this year. But I'll try anyways (and I'll include books I tried to read but did not finish):

• The five dollar smile and other stories, Shashi Tharoor: my review
• A short history of nearly everything, Bill Bryson: my review
• A History of Pi, Petr Beckman: my review
• Coding Slave, Bob Reselman: my review
• Transmission, Hari Kunzru : my review
• Harry Potter and The Half Blood Prince, J K Rowling : my review
• Cryptonomicon, Neal Stephenson: my review
• The Discovery of India, Jawaharlal Nehru: in progress
• Godel, Escher and Bach: The Enternal Golden Braid, Douglas Hofstaeder: unfinished
• Quicksilver, Neal Stephenson: unfinished

Update: I've tagged Abhaga, Nikhil and Thakkar (he hasn't blogged in a looooooong time). I realize I don't have all that many frequest posters (in the people's section) on my blog roll :(
