Ok finally I completed 50 Book Challenge for the year 2013.
During the year I read and blogged the book reviews. Unfortunately during the year I shifted my blog from Sulekha to my own site www.sanjeevkotnala.com and hence many of the reviews are not available.
Quite a lot (8-9 of the last read) lot are yet to be reviewed as I was more concerned with finishing reading 50 books as part of annual challenge than to write their review.
So here are my list- within each section the books are not stacked by the order
