The 2012 South Asian Challenge

The author must be South Asia or the book must be about South Asia:

I’m shooting for 7 books:

1. India: Gandhi: A Manga Biography, by Kakuzi Ebine

2. Pakistan: American Dervish, by Ayad Akhtar

3. Sri Lanka: Running In The Family, by Michal Ondaatje

4. Bangladesh: A Golden Age, by Tahmima Anam

5. Bhutan: Beyond The Sky And The Earth, by Jamie Zeppa

6. Nepal: Little Princes, by Conor Grennan

7. the Maldives: The Maldive Mystery, by Thor Heyerdahl

Hiya, What books are you planning to read set in Bangladesh and the Maldives? I would love to add a review of a book set in these countries to my site at http://www.holidayread.com – would you be interested in doing a guest post when you finish reading them? Thanks and good luck with the challenge – I think it’s a great idea!

I’m currently reading A Golden Age, by Tahmima Anam for the Bangladesh. I can choose to read next on the Maldives, haven’t chosen a title yet, but could find one today. I would be most happy to do a guest post. I’m not sure why, but the link you gave me to your other site does not work, it sends me to a weird thing.
if you look here, you can see all the titles I have been reading or chosen for my challenges: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AqZIzZFqfnNxdDU2cDE3SHRydmtlY1E4UElzend4MFE
