91. The Non-Adventures of Wonderella: Everybody Ever Forever by Justin Pierce.
92. Hide and Seek by Ian Rankin.
93. Stiff: The Curious Lives of Human Cadavers by Mary Roach.
94. Strip Jack by Ian Rankin. Still reading these. This is a better book than Hide and Seek, though again it feels like Rankin is inserting Rebus into places where he doesn't really belong, and relying too much on coincidence to lead him through. I guess pacing is one reason I'm still reading, and the setting, and the relationship between Rebus and Holmes, and the fact that I'm not smart enough to figure out who the real culprit is. The latter is true of most mysteries, though, which is part of why I read them.
