102. Barrel Fever & Other Stories, David Sedaris (Audio)

Not up to his later stuff.

101. Monsignor Quixote, Graham Greene

An "entertainment" with loveable priest and loveable Marxist mayor in conversation. Don Camillo in Spain? I didn't finish that one, either.

100. The Good Husband of Zebra Drive, Alexander McCall Smith

No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency gently solves crimes. I think I'm tired of this series. Especially when the solution is on the cover.

99. The Suspicions of Mr. Whicher, Kate Summerscale

"In the Wilkie Collins tradition." I don't like Wilkie Collins, either. True crime; death of an infant; scandale; secrets of a Victorian family. Best-seller.

98. Cette Chanson Que Je N'Oublierai Jamais, Mary Higgins Clark

Epouse se marie avec possible meurtrier et le sauve. Je n'aime pas Clark, vraiement, mais j'aime le façon que les français renomment les romans.

97. Calypso, Ed McBain

An early 87th Precinct. Top police procedural when Calypso singer is murdered.

96. Moving Pictures, Terry Pratchett

I didn't like this nearly as much as the rest of the Industrial series, but a movie fan probably would.
