The Clan Corporate by Charles Stross.

Runaway Twin by Peg Kehret.
 
Before that I re-read (after reading it the first time about 30 years ago)…
 
The Cricket in Times Square by George Selden, with drawings by Garth Williams.
 
Is it obvious I ran out of books and started reading some of what my daughter had checked out of the library???
