Nancy Drew 30: The Clue of the Velvet Mask
Nancy Drew 30: The Clue of the Velvet Mask | Carolyn Keene
11 posts | 14 read | 5 to read
A masquerade party at the Hendricks mansion quickly turns into a mystery when Nancy and her favorite date, Ned Nickerson, spy a stranger about to climb the rose trellis to the second story. Who is this enigmatic man in the black cloak and the exotic woman in the Javanese costume? Are they members of a gang of wily thieves who sneak into partied given by wealthy people and steal jewels and art treasures? And why is the owner of the black velvet hooded mask that Ned finds in the Hendricks garden so desperate to get it back? To find the answers Nancy and her friend George devise a daring plan. The two girls switch identities! George soon discovers that while it is exciting to play amateur detective it can be dangerous to masquerade as Nancy Drew.

This was a great mystery, but I am absolutely not a fan of the cover with the creepy eyes 😳

Andrew65 Well done 👏👏👏 It‘s not a great cover. 2y
TheSpineView I have to agree with you and Andrew. The cover is not one of the better ones. Makes me wonder if readers were turned off enough by the cover not to read this one. Hmmm... Great job despite the cover! 2y

A #mask title from Nancy Drew. My older sister had the cover on the right in her collection. I have the newer version on the left.

Number 29 in the #nancydrewchallenge done! I liked this mystery. Nancy takes on a party-crashing theft ring. Along the way George gets kidnapped, Ned takes a beating, and Bess steps up when George loses her nerve.

Well I finished my first #readathon. I only finished one book and probably spent more time socializing than reading, but I had a blast! I can't wait for the next one. I'll be sitting down and making notes to myself later today. I'm a little sad it's over. 😢

CoverToCoverGirl Dewey‘s has now become a book tradition for me and it is a lot of fun, already looking forward to the next one too! 6y
Sace @CoverToCoverGirl it's the perfect fit for me. It feels so laid back and I love the community. 6y
Crazeedi Nancy Nancy Nancy !!!!😊 6y

Sace @Crazeedi you know George and Bess get tired of her antics! 😂 6y
Mollyanna Glad you had a good time! That‘s the important part for the readathon. It‘s a great time to interact with others! See you in April (I‘m looking forward to it too 🙂). 6y
Sace @Mollyanna I can't wait! 6y

Crazeedi 💖 nancy and ned! 6y
Ashley_Nicoletto I also have a donut hole coffee cup and it‘s one of my favorites! 6y

Sace @Ashley_Nicoletto I love this mug so much. I used to have two but I accidently broke one. I cherish the one I have left. They changed the design a few years ago and I don't like it. 6y
Ashley_Nicoletto @RestlessFickleBookHoarder I have the new design I think. Where it‘s curved in? 6y
Sace @Ashley_Nicoletto yes! And it's heavier and clunkier 😔 6y

I am so excited about @DeweysReadathon! I spent yesterday evening in GR finalizing plans, checking out tips and reading about other readers' #readathon traditions. I'm gonna try hard for a blackout bingo, but the 500 pages is intimidating!

Sace And tagging @Leniverse just because 😉 6y
Soubhiville Enjoy it!!! 6y
Mollyanna You got this! Have fun. 6y

Leniverse The pages are cumulative. You don‘t have to start counting over again after you reach 200. Also, if you fall short, just read a graphic novel. Good luck! 6y
Sace @Leniverse even with that I didn't think I could do it but now that you've remindede about graphic novels (or manga) I feel silly for being intimidated! Duh! Thanks for the tip 😊 6y
Sace @Soubhiville @Mollyanna thanks for the encouragement! 6y

TK-421 @Linsy Thanks 😊 Some of these--the green one for sure--belonged to my Mom before she gave them to me to read. There's something so beautiful about a well-loved book! 7y

I'm broke like it ain't no joke - and it's time for me and this lovely old edition of Nancy Drew to part ways. I'm selling it in my etsy shop if anyone's interested
