No Middle Name:The Complete Collected Jack Reacher Short Stories by Lee Child - just what the title says. From his teenage years, through his military career, and his ramblings around the country, Jack always manages to get himself out of a predicament.

The Right Side by Spencer Quinn - the author of the Chet and Bernie series takes a much more serious tone. LeAnne Hogan doesn't remember what happened during a military operation in Afghanistan that went wrong during which she suffered serious injuries and lost her right eye. Bitter and confused, she leaves the hospital after her roommate, Marcie, suddenly dies. Almost by accident she arrives in Marci's hometown where she learns Marci's daughter is missing. She's also adopted by a large stray dog, no one's idea of a pet. Her search for Mia becomes a search for herself. I don't know if this will become a series but I hope so.

Words in Deep Blue by Cath Crowley - a used bookshop has a section where the books aren't sold, instead they are used by people to leave letters and notes to others. And that's the most interesting part of the book. Otherwise it's a typical YA book with language, sex, and the always present love triangle.
