We've somehow made it to April and I probably won't get a bingo this month either! 😆 My #bookspin is What the Chickadee Knows, which is fitting for poetry month. And my #doublespin is the next Trixie Belden for #bobwhitebuddies. I might have that backwards, actually, but I'll read them both anyway! Thanks, as always, Sarah! @TheAromaofBooks #bookspinbingo

TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! Looks fantastic!! 1d

Who were the kids in this book? Because they didn't act at all like the Bob-Whites from the first 10 books. Trixie was persistent to the point of being annoying. Their poor uncle! He didn't get to see them much in Iowa (& Trixie almost drowned) & they aren't paying any attention to him in Missouri either (& Trixie almost drowned). I hadn't realized that Kathryn Kenny was a pen name, but it's pretty obvious to me now. #bobwhitebuddies

Sparklemn Great review! 😂 Trixie Troublemaker (edited) 2d

The Bob-Whites next adventure includes spelunking, ghost fish, & a mysterious voice on the wind.

This was the 1 I remembered the best from my childhood. The description of the eyeless fish really freaked me out as a kid. There were some interesting side mysteries, & I loved the side characters in Andrew‘s lodge. Although I laughed out loud when Trixie said “when has my 1st impression been wrong?” & a last minute kind of pointless twist.🌕🌕🌕🌗🌑

lauraisntwilder Agreed on that twist at the end -- so unnecessary. 2d
Sparklemn This was one of my favorites. 2d
TheAromaofBooks I also thought the first impression line was hilarious 😂 I appreciated Honey calling her out on it LOL I finished this one so I am hoping to post a discussion post for us today or tomorrow!! 1d

#DynamicDs

Growing up, I wanted to be a #Detective & solve crimes like my heroes. Since it didn‘t happen, I spend a little part of each month getting nostalgic with Nancy Drew, Trixie Belden, & Encyclopedia Brown. Here‘s the April books for #NancyDrewBR #BobWhiteBuddies & #EBBR

Pickpick

February's #BobWhiteBuddies read was enjoyable but not particularly outstanding. There really wasn't much “mystery,“ but I did enjoy the interactions of the gang.

Query: What do you all think was the point of making Dan a member of the Bob Whites and then literally never having him do anything with them?? 😂

Feel free to share any thoughts you had on this one!!

TheBookHippie I love the cover. 3w
BookmarkTavern The more cynical part of me says that subsequent writers saw 3 girls, 3 boys, and saw perfect little developing romances. The more hopeful part says that they‘re writing to people who maybe don‘t get to participate in as many things with their friends because of responsibilities, but they still get to see the BobWhites value and miss Dan. (edited) 3w
BookmarkTavern And I can‘t remember, do we see the journalist again? He‘s been set up as a pretty good long term antagonist for the group, but I don‘t remember seeing him again. 3w

The Marshland Mystery | Kathryn Kenny
post image

I finished these at the beginning of March. Ozma of Oz starts off pretty unhinged, but end up being a more coherent story that Marvelous Land of Oz. This Trixie book was one of my favorites so far. I like that these feel like mysteries a kid could actually solve. This one also included a long-past tragedy and tumbled down mansion, so it was checking all the boxes for this Kate Morton reader. #bobwhitebuddies #BeyondtheYellowBrickRoad

BookmarkTavern What a gorgeous edition of Oz! 🤩🤩 3w
