32. The Rembrandt Affair
With this book - Gabriel Allon #10 - Daniel Silva is back on track with my fave art restorer/assassin. I quite enjoy these fast paced stories, and this one has art theft as the back story - a topic that fascinates me.

33. The Drop
This is Harry Bosch #16, and I listened to it on audio. It is an OK read, though do not think that I would have finished the book if I had sat down to read it. When does one give up on a series that used to be really good?

34. A Study in Scarlet
I've meant to read Sherlock for ages, but simply did not get round to it. Well, this is the book selected for the Soho Crime Read-Along this month, so checked out the audio book from the library and I loved it. Classic who-dun-it.

35. Caleb's Crossing
This is my book club selection for April, and has been on my TBR list since it was published. I love books by this author, and this one is really good as well. This historical novel explores the shocks and reverberations caused by first contact. New gods versus old gods. New traditions versus old ones. The loss of family and community ties when one decides to follow a path different than one that is expected of you. The story of a Native American boy and a Puritan girl who are changed by their chance encounter and friendship.
