The book drought is over

Long story short, I went to Karachi and bought some books. I didn't go specifically for books, but its what I seemed to have brought back the most of. Here is what I intend to read in the coming months:
  • The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini
  • Saturday by Ian McEwan
  • The old man and the sea by Ernest Hemingway
  • War Trash by Ha Jin
  • Harlot's Ghost by Norman Mailer
  • To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee
  • Che's Guerilla War by Regis Debray
  • Of Love and Other Demons by Gabriel Garcia Marquez
  • The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho
  • The Algebra of Infinite Justice by Arundhati Roy
  • The Art of War by Sun Tzu
  • The Five People you meet in Heaven by Mitch Albom
  • The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time by Mark Haddon
  • Animal Farm by George Orwell
  • Sophie's World by Jostein Gaarder
  • One Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel Garcia Marquez
  • Rumi, Poet and Mystic by Reynold Nicholson
  • Salt and Saffron by Kamila Shamsie
  • Rommel, the Desert Fox by Desmond Young
  • The God of Small Things by Arundhati Roy

Sadly, no Kafka and no Vonnegut. So it goes.
