Nancy Drew 08: Nancy's Mysterious Letter | Carolyn Keene
16 posts | 38 read | 2 to read
By mistake Nancy Drew receives a letter from England intended for an heiress, also named Nancy Drew. When Nancy undertakes a search for the missing young woman, it becomes obvious that a ruthless, dangerous man is determined to prevent her from finding the heiress or himself. Clues that Nancy unearths lead her to believe that the villainous Edgar Nixon plans to marry the heiress and then steal her inheritance.

I filled in 4 more slots in the #192025 challenge in May! @Librarybelle

Librarybelle Great job! I plan to do a tally of what I read for the challenge so far at the end of June…I‘ve been keeping track on StoryGraph, but it‘ll be fun to pull out the completed from the full list to see the overall progress. 10mo
kwmg40 @Librarybelle I've been keeping track in both StoryGraph and in a spreadsheet. I've been trying to read no more than one book by any one author and it's easier to keep track of this in the spreadsheet. 10mo
Librarybelle That‘s a good thought! 10mo

This is a low pick, as the plot is rather implausible. However, rereading it reminded me of why I loved this series so much when I was young.

The first Nancy Drew mysteries by Carolyn Keene were published in the 1930s and since then a steady diet of intriguing mysteries have followed, penned by a team of ghost writers under the this pen name.

MamaGina Nancy is the reason I‘m a reader and have a particular love of mysteries 💕 2y
johncadams @MamaGina People love Nancy and her mysteries. I get such a positive response whenever I post a review on my blog. 2y
UwannaPublishme Great review! 🙌🏻It‘s been too long since I‘ve read Nancy Drew. 2y
johncadams @UwannaPublishme So many readers loved her as children. Many still read them now as adults. 2y

A case of mistaken identity, mail theft, and an unscrupulous con man. Nancy‘s most dangerous case yet.

A newsletter I subscribe to (dated today) mentioned National Book Boyfriend Day. I assumed today was the day and began reminiscing about my very first #litcrush, Ned Nickerson 🥰, before discovering the actual day was Oct 3. 😒 Ah well. I still came home and mined my childhood set of Nancy Drew books for pics of the delightful N.N. 😁

“The two girls with her turned to look toward the sidewalk. Trudging along was an elderly mail carrier. He was lugging a heavy bag over one shoulder. His head was down and his eyes were almost closed against the strong November #wind that swirled leaves and dirt around him.” #QuotsyFeb19 #NancyDrew

Just finished reading this one aloud. Things get dicey for Nancy this time as she tries to track down a missing heiress before a dangerous con man can swindle her out of her inheritance.

Number 5 down for #nancydrewchallenge , number 2 with the kiddo.

Day 26: Sleuth!
Nancy Drew is a 🍑! While I don't usually condone repurposing a book, I ❤️ what RecluseBooks on IG is doing! I bought the book shown to hold a gift for my daughter for Christmas! @LibrarianRyan #octphotochallenge #sleuth

Alfoster Oh my! Loved Nancy Drew and her cool roadster! Now 7 year-old granddaughter loves Nancy Clancy so going to work her up to "my" Nancy!! 7y
Texreader That takes some serious talent! I love it! 7y

So many fabulous female characters I enjoy. I'll go with Nancy Drew for the #augustofpages #bookphotochallenge though. I admit my delight of her is a mix of her bravery, smarts, loyal friends, and the fashion sense I personally project onto her. #day23 #favefemalecharacter
