Uncommon Type: Some Stories by Tom Hanks - 17 short stories connected by typewriters. I found the first story the most humorous, friends decide to become lovers and then she begins to "improve" him. Some of the stories are in the past and some seem to take place in a near future. Nothing profound but enjoyable.

One Dead Dean by Bill Crider - a hated dean at a small denominational college is murdered. Carl Burns, a professor with a penchant for list-making, somehow keeps getting involved in the investigation. He thinks he can do a better job than the bumbling sheriff and, what a surprise, he can. This is the first in a short series started in 1988 by the author of the Sheriff Dan Rhodes series.
