I'm in between a few right now:
"Famous Mysteries" by John Elfreth Watkins, which I found on Google Books when searching for "Mary Celeste." Not well written but actually pretty interesting. I thought it was funny that the first case (those two boy brothers locked up in the Tower of London, forget who they were) has been solved semi-recently.

"The Last Camel Died at Noon" by Elizabeth Peters I picked up at the library. I always enjoy her books, but mad that I had to skip "Deeds of the Disturber" since I couldn't find it anywhere.

"Crome Yellow" by Aldous Huxley I'm reading on my Reader (uploaded from here!). It's odd, not sure what to make of it yet. I can see glimmerings of his ideas that turned into "Brave New World," which I loved.
