The “new” version set in Florida was such a mess that I had to hunt down the original. It arrived today and why did no one tell me the originals had end papers?!?!? #nancydrewbr

so-so3✨ I thought this was pretty interesting that Nancy was helping to solve coded messages. She has close encounters with dangerous wild animals, and tear gas. Then her boyfriend‘s mom is trying to convince her to talk to her dad about buying the house next door to them. 🤣 #NancyDrewBR @Librarybelle

so-so#NancyDrewBR @Librarybelle
A car accident that goes nowhere. Exploding oranges meant to be planted “in strategic spots“ at the Kennedy Space Center. 😳 Horrible house hosts at an orange grove farm. A tour-travelogue-like press release of the space center and museum. Tear gas in Nancy and her friend's faces at a photo-op. Ned & Nancy almost drowning in a vat of boiling water. Way. Too. Much. Going. On. And too over-the-top for me. On to book 19!

Didn't know how else to show this: I finished one book this week, but it definitely wasn't a favorite ... so there ya go! 🤣❌🤣
panI enjoyed reading the revised series when I was in elementary school. I did not come even close to reading them all, but enough to have a genuine love for Nancy and her friends. Reading these with the #NancyDrewBR is really fun, but if you just want to read the “good” mysteries skip this one. It was choppy, and needed some more editing imo.
My favorite line from this caper -
George: Bess, you‘re the heroine of the occasion!
It‘s time for our discussion, #LittenDetectives ! I have 6 questions as spoilers posted. You can find them on my feed, the book‘s feed, or by searching #NancyDrewBR . This one was a bit of a hot mess in my opinion, but I just love reading these with you!!
I‘ll post the official graphic for next month‘s book, The Quest for the Missing Map, tomorrow. Not many variations between the editions this time!

Circling back to the adventures in the books...adult critics for the 1971 edition indicate Nancy's near-death experience in the pool as atypical of the stories. Some of you have also commented on the James Bond-esque escapades of Nancy. I did not read this one as a kid, so I'm not sure if I would have been awed or petrified (like Bess) at what Nancy experiences. Any thoughts? A favorite adventure in the book to share? #NancyDrewBR
