This years reads and next years target

The year was imbalanced in respect of my reads distribution over the month. The first six months were sort of blank. I was busy reading the technical stuff as I had the task of teaching in the hand. However, the last 5 months were progressive. I finished following books.
1. Achoot
2. Into the wild
3. Train to Pakistan
4. Indira by Inder Malhotra
5. Amish's Immortals of Meluha
6. Secret of Nagas
7. Corporate leaders by Ramachandran,
8. Osho's Fame, fortune and Ambition
9. Raghuram Rajan's I do what I do (in progress)

This totals around 9 books. Maybe I am forgetting one more name. I still missed by years target of 12 books. However, I am committed to making up for this lag in my book count in the coming year.  

For next year, I have already listed the titles I will be reading. Here is the list for my own record:
1. Influence
2. Shashi Tharoor's book on Modi
3. Agatha Christie: Anyone
4. Murakami: Anyone
5. Weight loss book by Rutuja Divekar
6. Amish's 3rd book
7. Gora
8. P.B. Mehta's book
9. Rural Manifesto by Varun Gandhi
10. George Orwell 1984
11. Power of Unconscious Mind
12. Economics simplified by Sanjeev Verma

In addition, I need to read 2 to 3 more books to compensate for this year's lag. I am keeping my fingers crossed and ask for will, energy and good luck from the almighty that he gives me the strength to finish these books.
