The Scarlet Macaw Scandal
The Scarlet Macaw Scandal | Carolyn Keene
2 posts | 2 read
Bess, George, and I volunteered to go to Costa Rica for some R&R: rest and research. See, Corcovado Ecologica, a popular resort and preserve, isn't only a beautiful getaway; it's also a great place to study three species of monkeys. Or so we thought. When we arrived on the scene, we found the place in a shambles, and the monkeys were few and far between. And if the problem gets worse, the resort's going to be in trouble. Clearly my friends and I won't have much time for "monkeying around" on this trip -- we've got a case to crack! Catch my next case: Secret of the Spa

This was the first Nancy Drew book I have read in a number of decades. Read it for #CostaRica for #ReadingTheAmericas2023 @BarbaraBB @Librarybelle

An enjoyable light mystery set in the jungles of Costa Rica where something mysterious is going on. Cue Nancy and her friends to investigate and save the day. Although not going to run out and read others in the series.

14th book read in November #Rushathon @DieAReader @Ghabi4Roses

Andrew65 @Librarybelle Amazing what you find out with a bit of research. I definitely wasn‘t aware. 4mo
TheSpineView Fantastic! 4mo
GHABI4ROSES I WAS JUST ASKING ABOUT THESE?! Should I go for it? Nancy? Hardy Boys? I have the first few of both. I know that Hardy Boys were first. 4mo
Andrew65 @GHABI4ROSES They are quick, light, fun reads based on these ones. Possibly a couple of hours reading for this book. Good for break from other reading I would impatient but I think I‘d want to intersperse them. A LOT of Nancy Drew books 😳 As a child I read more Hardy Boys than Nancy Drew. If you‘ve got them I‘d read them. 4mo
GHABI4ROSES That is exactly how I needed to see it: I have them. I will read them. Especially cus I am a chunkster person! Good interludes😘 4mo
Andrew65 @GHABI4ROSES I need to get to my Chunksters more! A goal for 2023, singularly failed on that this year. 4mo

Y‘all. This is so bad that I almost want to give it a pick for the sheer audacity. It surpassed even my low expectations.

It reads like the publisher sponsored a “write the next Nancy Drew mystery!” contest at a high school and this was the “winner”. The only other plausible explanation for this hot mess of a MG book is nepotism. But, hey, it counts for #readingtheamericas2023 #costarica 🤣🤣

AlaMich And the title doesn‘t exactly roll right off your tongue either! 🙄 1y
Librarybelle Ha! Love your review! 1y
ChaoticMissAdventures 🤣😂🤣 the audacity. 1y
