Nancy Drew 20: The Clue in the Jewel Box | Carolyn Keene

pick

A pick. Pretty straightforward and not too complicated. There was the mystery of the pickpockets and the lost prince, but they overlapped so I didn‘t mind. I‘d like to know the point of the car crashing into Mr Faber‘s shop though. Ned seemed cranky and pouty early in the book. He seemed petulant and selfish which isn‘t his usual demeanor. I wasn‘t crazy about it.

Ruthiella Fun fact: the truck that crashed into Mr. Faber‘s shop is the same guy who crashed into Bess and George in the first chapter of The Moss Covered Mansion. The guy‘s a menace! Chief McGinnis should take away his license! 😜 45m

Finished last weekend for #NancyDrewBR I can only restate that I really need to review these right after I‘ve finished them as it all kind of blends together after a crazy workweek.🤷🏻‍♀️What I do remember for sure is *small spoiler alert* there were no knockouts for Nancy‘s noggin so the #NNK remains at 9/20.🤕This is good for Nanner‘s poor head since she was knocked out twice in the last book & her noggin needed ⬇️

DebinHawaii …a break. There was not quite as much danger/action in this one. It does make me laugh that River Heights is always where all the people end up in a nice coincidence so Nancy can solve her mysteries. Here it‘s a disposed Queen & then we end up with multiple of her citizens as well so Nancy can conveniently find a missing Prince. 👑 Anyway, I do remember some of this one from childhood & it gets a pick. Discussion is tomorrow. 7h

TheSpineView Well done! 7h

Librarybelle Yes! Nancy got to save her head in this one! 6h

Not as many nail biting moments in this one, and thankfully no really odd episodes that make no sense. Nancy is charged with identifying the clue in the jewel box (hello title) and finding a lost prince. I really disliked the character Francis, and Ned continues to show a tad impatience with Nancy‘s sleuthing…

#Naturalitsy #HyggeHourReadathon

Spending my #HyggeHour with Nanners & her posse for Book #20 of #NancyDrewBR Here‘s hoping her noggin remains unknocked because we added 2 to the #NNK counter in May. 🤕

Chocolate for a snack & just water to drink because I had a lot of different beverages today & don‘t really feel like tea. Mood is tired—it was a good weekend, but busy & I‘m mentally not ready for Monday & next week. 🤷🏻‍♀️🙅🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

TheBookHippie, Chrissyreadit, AllDebooks

AllDebooks Lovely choices fir a reset. X 6d

Librarybelle Let‘s hope Nancy is okay in this one! 6d

so-so

3✨ This was a fun read. We have Nancy looking into a missing twin who happens to have the other half of a treasure map provided by their father before he died. This was is not without Nancy getting in danger, but this time the villain(s) of the story seemed smarter and sometimes one step ahead of Nancy. #NDBuddyRead

Earlier this month I learned the word “whizbang” while reading a Nancy Drew mystery. Today I encountered it again while reading Stuck Up and Stupid, originally published in 2023.
