Welcome to Litsy!

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

A prince from a relatively minor royal Italian family has come to River Heights to deliver a painting to Mrs. Mahoney, a friend of the royal family. Turns out his family thinks he stole the painting and the prince is thrown in jail. Can Nancy prove he‘s innocent?

Young designer Alicia Adams opens a boutique in River Heights. When opening day comes, tons of people show up, the store window is smashed and people are injured. Later Alicia's most expensive dress is destroyed, and her store is vandalized.
Enter Nancy and Ned!! Ned Nickerson! (BF) So…. there are a lot more Drew mysteries than I thought-this one was more modern, with a computer

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 🤣🤣

It's been a bit since I've posted, but that doesn't mean I haven't been reading. :) Lately, I've been working on the goal of getting through the whole Nancy Drew series this year. These are easy reads and so much fun!! #mystery #nancydrew #readinggoal #fiction #girldetective

This was the first Nancy drew book I have read and I was pulled in! There were many moving parts in this book, so It was like solving 3 mysteries in one. I was constantly wondering what was going to happen next and how everything connected. Very fun read!

Day 27 #riotgrams #retrocovers. My Trixie Belden collection -what's left of it- are my only books with retro covers. The publication dates of these range from 1948-1971. #girldetective

"Look after this girl, Mildred. She's a menace to murderers."
A menace to murderers? I quite liked that. If I ever have a business card I shall have that motto printed on it with an image of a never-sleeping eye. #girldetective
