Nancy Drew 07: The Clue in the Diary | Carolyn Keene

pick

I'd read this a few weeks ago and enjoyed the #NancyDrewBR discussion hosted by @Librarybelle, but I'm just now catching up with a bunch of reviews.

This was another good installment in the series. I especially liked that we got a proper introduction to Ned Nickerson.

#ReadAway2024 #SeriesLove2024

I actually finished this one for #NancyDrewBR before my trip but I‘m finally getting to the review now since not a ton of reading is happening this weekend-mostly sleeping.
Another enjoyable Nancy Drew book—in this one we get to meet Ned Nickerson & while Nancy solves a couple crimes, she isn‘t in as much danger & doesn‘t get knocked out so now the #NancyNogginKnockout or #NNK count is 3/7 books. 🤕 So I guess ⬇️

DieAReader, Librarybelle, Andrew65, TheSpineView, GHABI4ROSES

DebinHawaii …because I read lots of thrillers with serial killers, it brings them taking trophies to mind when Nancy keeps or is given something to commemorate solving a mystery! 🤷🏻‍♀️😂 And this is one of my favorite Nancy Drew book covers! 🏃‍♀️🔥 6d

Librarybelle It‘s a fun book cover! 6d

DieAReader 🥳🥳🥳 6d

TheSpineView Fantastic!🤩📖 6d

Nancy Drew 07: The Clue in the Diary | Carolyn Keene

After the last #NancyDrewBR I was craving a childhood favorite- brown bread in a can and baked beans. In my meat eating days I would have added a chopped hot dog.

Librarybelle

Librarybelle Awesome!!! 2w

Soscha My first thought was those were brownies so, ew. I‘ve never tried the canned bread but seems interesting. Not sure it‘s available where we shop. 2w

Tamra @Soscha yes, I thought they were brownies too! 😆 I loved baked beans if they aren‘t overly sweet, that‘s where the hotdog comes in. 2w

RaeLovesToRead Haha, my first thought on seeing this photo is WHAT IS THIS FRESH HELL?? 🤣🤣 2w

Dilara I also thought they were brownies! Having never heard of brown bread in a can, I googled it and it turns out its ingredients are “Water, Whole Wheat Flour, Molasses, Dextrose, Rye Flour, Whey, Degerminated Yellow Corn Meal, Baking Soda,Buttermilk*, Salt,Corn Oil.“ So it's probably quite sweet? Although probably not as much as brownies 😋 😅 2w

Bookwormjillk @Dilara it is sweet, but not brownie sweet! 2w

Bookwormjillk @Soscha mostly a New England thing I think 2w

Dilara @Bookwormjillk That's reassuring 😂 2w

willaful My mom used to love that bread with some cream cheese. I haven't seen it in a long time. 2w

LiseWorks I love baked beans....yum 2w

On their way home from the country carnival, Nancy, Bess and George witness the explosion of a country mansion. Nancy‘s instinct is to check if she can save anyone, and as a man is running away she finds a diary.

At the country carnival, the friends had met a mother and her young daughter. The friends decide that they want to do something for the family.

Finally Ned is introduced and help our friends solve the mystery.

The complete Peanuts: 1953 to 1954 | Charles M. Schulz

#SundayFunday #BookmarkTavern

Heck yes, I do! Some of my favorites:
•rereading Nancy Drew with the #NancyDrewBR group
•rereading the Sherlock Holmes canon with #NoPlaceLikeHolmes
•every summer I reread the complete collection of PEANUTS comics from 1958-2000 ... every comic Schulz ever wrote.
•my Pam and Penny twin reads from the 1950s by Rosamon du Jardin
•THE FLAME AND THE FLOWER by Kathryn Woodiwiss
•the sexy parts from the OUTLANDER books 🤫

FashionableObserver Not sure where you are, but the Minnesota History Center has a great exhibit about the life and art of native son, Charles Schulz. It goes through June 9th! https://www.mnhs.org/historycenter/activities/museum/schulz 2w

dabbe @FashionableObserver I wish I was closer! I live in the hell that is Phoenix, AZ at this time of year. Thanks for the link, though! I'll explore it! 🤩😀🤗 2w

FashionableObserver Oh, Phoenix! My family and I were just saying how much we miss it. We usually spend about ten days there at the beginning of May. We stay at the Biltmore every time…now our son has so many activities that we can‘t do our annual trip anymore! 😕 2w

FashionableObserver If you want an exhibition catalog and can‘t get one online, let me know. I can grab one for you when I go! 2w

willaful When I first started reading sexy romance -- in my forties! -- I read some bits over and over and... when I had a middle of the night hospital trip and nothing to read, I retold sections of The Shadow and the Star to myself so I wouldn't go mad.

The Shadow and the Star

dabbe @FashionableObserver Good thing you don't come in July or August! 😂 2w

dabbe @willaful 🤩😀🤗 2w

BookmarkTavern Such great choices! Thanks for sharing! 2w

dabbe @BookmarkTavern 🤩🤗😀 2w

FashionableObserver @dabbe OMG we did a girls‘ trip there last September. SCORCHING!! 😩🔥🤣 (Totally worth it though!) 2w

dabbe @FashionableObserver My grandma always said that the weather here wouldn't start to get cooler until the first full moon in October. She was right. 🤩😂😀 2w
