Update on my OT list - modified the list a bit, coz I didnt like a couple of books which I had originally decided upon... My last book was on Turkey/Armenia, depicted in the map below (I love this tool that I found to create colorful maps!) Armenia is that small portion in dark brown next to Turkey (in orange)
1. Sister of my heart- Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni (India)
2. The Reluctant Fundamentalist - Mohsin Hamid (Pakistan)
3. A thousand splendid suns - Khalid Hosseini (Afghanistan)
4. The Bastard of Istanbul - Elif Shafak (Turkey/Armenia)
5. Lolita - Vladimir Nabokov (Russia) ........ in progress
6. To kill a mocking bird - Harper Lee (USA)
7. The Conservationist- Nadine Gordimer (South Africa)
8. One hundred years of solitude - Gabriel Garcia Marquez (Columbia)
9. The Book Thief - Markus Zusak (Australia)

Hi, came here from Ramya's blog. I'm part of the OT challenge too and I can understand what you mean by "not being able to finish some books you started". Happened to me with "Hundred years of Solitude". BTW, couldn't find reviews of any of your books except "The Reluctant Fundamentalist".
BTW, I'm blogrolling you..
You can find all the reviews under the label 'Orbis Terrarum Challenge', or just click on the name of each book listed in this post, they are linked
