Too much golf and a Carson Drew case which he is not even trying to solve, a haunted bridge the plays a major role in the title. I like the cover because it‘s spooky, …

MariaW but it‘s a eed herring. 4d

I just realized I didn't post about this. I can't believe we've read 15 of these already. I feel like we just started. Nancy continues to be perfect, which is sometimes a little dull, but ultimately I love her. She didn't get knocked out in this one, but she did fall through a bridge in a rainstorm! #NancyDrewBR

It‘s time for our discussion, #LittenDetectives ! I have 5 questions posted as spoilers. You can find them on my feed, the book‘s feed, or by searching #NancyDrewBR .

This was a fun read and a good way to ignore reality for a bit. Our next one is The Clue of the Tapping Heels, featuring tapping noises in a house and Persian cats.

More info will be posted tomorrow. Thanks for reading with me!

5. Let's talk the story itself, from Nancy's golfing to the actual mystery. Carson Drew is on the hunt for international jewel thieves, and he has no qualms asking his 18 year old for help. Nancy also wants to identify Margaret Judson, who may be tied to the jewels but also has a sad backstory.

Any thoughts on the story line? A bit too much golf for me, but I'm not a golfer. Though, it does show Nancy's resiliency through pain! #NancyDrewBR

Bookwormjillk I was a little frustrated that Nancy couldn‘t tell Bess and George the whole story. 6d

bookandbedandtea The plot around the jewel thieves was really light; you'd think that story would lend itself to more excitement. Also, the haunted bridge was ridiculous. There's no way a bunch of teen boys (the caddies) wouldn't have dared each other to go to the bridge. The scarecrow should have been found long ago. 6d

DGRachel I agree with @bookandbedandtea about the caddies. Someone would have crossed that bridge! I like having a bit more Carson, even though his using Nancy to help solve the mystery always strikes me as a little reckless. 18 isn‘t 8 but it‘s still not fully developed adult either and knowingly putting in harm‘s way seems like questionable parenting. 6d

See All 33 Comments

DGRachel And definitely way too much golf. So much golf. 😩 6d

Ruthiella I was a little discomforted by the “play through the pain” message. I also think it might have been a nice lesson for young readers to see Nancy come in second. But alas. As I commented earlier, the plot generally relies too heavily on coincidence, but that‘s fine for me. The books are meant for children to read. If you want super tricky mystery, there‘s Encyclopedia Brown! 😅 6d

lauraisntwilder @Ruthiella I agree. It would've been nice if Nancy hadn't won the tournament, but then it wouldn't have been Nancy. 6d

Ruthiella @lauraisntwilder True that! Her hair color may change from book to book but not her perfection! 😂 6d

TheAromaofBooks I kind of thought it was hilarious how much dancing was going on. Every night, off to another dance to pump people for information 😂 Super convenient. 6d

dabbe @Ruthiella I hope the 1972 writer (Priscilla Baker-Carr.) didn't dummy down the book by removing “titian“ ... or maybe because it was updated in the 70s, Nancy used Sun-In to make her hair more blonde! Though mine turned orange because I used way too much of it + the Phoenix sun! 😂 6d

Sace @DGRachel I know nothing about golf so the descriptions of play and scoring each whole meant nothing and it didn‘t matter because I knew Nancy would win. 😂 5d

Sace @Ruthiella I also didn‘t like the playing through the pain. Encyclopedia rocks! 5d

MariaW Definitely too much golf. 🏌️🏌️🏌️ And in the end Carson Drew did not find out anything, Nancy did do everything. Both mysteries were very shallow this time. The two best suspects came in only on the last ten pages. Why not use them earlier in the book to create a confusion? 5d

Ruthiella @dabbe Her hair is described as “reddish-blond” on page one. 5d

DGRachel @Ruthiella I don‘t think I‘ve ever read any Encyclopedia Brown stories! 5d

dabbe @Ruthiella You're right; Bess's hair is described as “blond“ on p. 2. I got the two mixed up. It's still an easier compound adjective than “titian.“ Thanks for the correction. 5d

Julies_Bookshelf_Adventures Way too much golf! And I agree with @bookandbedandtea there is no way someone wouldn‘t have crossed that bridge (no pun intended). I did enjoy the easy storyline and plot, it was a nice break from the more dense books I‘ve been reading lately. 5d

Ruthiella @DGRachel I looooved Encyclopedia Brown as a kid. Way more technical than Nancy Drew. I should revisit the books and see if they still stump me (probably!😂) 5d

DGRachel @Ruthiella I feel like this needs to be a Litsy buddy read group. 😂 5d

bookandbedandtea I found myself wishing Nancy would come in 2nd but I kinda view Nancy the dance way as Barbie in that she can do anything! Given the dearth of books for girls when these were written it was probably good that girls were able to see Nancy doing so many random things and doing them well. 5d

kspenmoll I did not like how Nancy was determined to play thru her pain but I guess that‘s what sports expect. I always think of what are the long term effects of overuse of an injury? My son loved Encyclopedia Brown books! @Ruthiella I still laugh at the guys rebuilding a bridge! That was too much for me. Regardless, Nancy is a great role model. 5d

kwmg40 I'm not a golfer but maybe because of that, I didn't mind too much all the golfing descriptions, as I got to learn more about the game. Other than the usual amazing coincidences, I liked that this story seemed more plausible than some of the previous ones. 5d

kwmg40 @dabbe I laughed at your story about Sun-In. My brother tried it when we were teens and it turned his hair an awful shade of orange. We discovered that Sun-In and black Asian hair do not mix well! 5d

Librarybelle I‘m with you on the golf, and why a group of young men/boys did not want to investigate the haunted bridge is beyond me! @Bookwormjillk @bookandbedandtea @DGRachel @Ruthiella @lauraisntwilder @TheAromaofBooks @dabbe @Sace @MariaW @Julies_Bookshelf_Adventures @kspenmoll @kwmg40 5d

BarkingMadRead I am not a fan of golf unless it‘s mini golf ⛳️ so I could have done without it, although it did tie in to the story a bunch of times. 5d

dabbe @kwmg40 Wowza! My hair was ash-blonde and it also turned it orange--like Sunkist soda! I had to look it up on the Internet to see if they still sold it, and they do! Wonder if it's the same god-awful formula! 😂 5d

Sace @DGRachel @Ruthiella I second the suggestion 😁 5d

Ruthiella @Sace @DGRachel Would you like to do a buddy read in February of the first book? 🤔

Sace @Ruthiella Absolutely! 4d

4. We did not have tigers or bears, but we had a mountain lion (and why was it caged??? I felt bad for the lion). The side characters in this one had some pretty strong personalities, at least to me (looking at you Barty). Nancy's reactions towards Barty made the book way more enjoyable for me.

What did you think of the characters? Bess was also not described as chubby or plump, so that's a win! #NancyDrewBR

Bookwormjillk Yay for Bess! Gotta admit I kind of loved that Barty was messing with her all along. 6d

bookandbedandtea I felt bad for the lion too! Who keeps a mountain lion in a cage behind their house?! Barty was sooo annoying but he gave the story a lot of its flavor and like @Bookwormjillk I thought it was funny that he turned out to be messing with her. 6d

DGRachel I loved that they didn‘t fat shame Bess in this one. I hate that it was so pervasive in earlier books that I actually noticed its absence! The caged mountain lion made no sense at all, and I definitely didn‘t like it. Barty made my skin crawl. I can‘t believe he ended up being just a sleaze ball and not part of the mystery. I wanted him hauled away to jail. 😂 (edited) 6d

See All 14 Comments

Ruthiella I am hoping the mountain lion was an injured orphan cub and Mr. Haley was going to return it to the wild once it recovered. 🤞 I also loved how obnoxious Barty was a huge red herring! 😂 6d

lauraisntwilder No outright fat shaming, but there was still a line about how Bess liked to eat. Don't we all?? I thought the Barty storyline was fun, but I felt bad for George. 6d

TheAromaofBooks The mountain lion definitely felt like it was just there so something could scream 😂 Barty was so obnoxious, but it was fun to hate him. I also think Nancy putting him in his place was setting a great example for younger readers, especially considering the era. 6d

dabbe I jumped the gun and posted about Bess in the previous post. Yay for Bess indeed, @Bookwormjillk!

Excellent observation, @Ruthiella. I am still upset about that mountain lion in the cage, but your explanation gives me hope. 6d

MariaW Assuming the mountain lion was somehow tied to the bridge & was made to roar whenever somebody would try to cross it, I was a bit disappointed that the weird sounds only came from some boughs. This would have made the storyline of the bridge more interesting. Barry presenting himself as a red herring made me realize how fast we -or I at least- jump to the conclusion that someone we dislike must be the villian or have a skeleton in the closet. 5d

kspenmoll I too assumed Barty was a rat & villain- but he was a read herring as @MariaW said. 5d

kwmg40 I didn't really get the addition of the mountain lion. It seemed unnecessary to me. I liked the more positive depiction of Bess. Bess seems like a nice “normal“ character that many people can relate to, in contrast to superhuman and multitalented Nancy. 5d

Librarybelle I was so not a fan of the mountain lion, especially since we received no info on why it was there. Sure, it helped identify the screams, but still… Barry had my creep-o-meter going full blast. Ugh! I‘m with you, @DGRachel …just put him in jail! 😂 @Bookwormjillk @bookandbedandtea @Ruthiella @lauraisntwilder @TheAromaofBooks @dabbe @MariaW @kspenmoll @kwmg40 5d

Ruthiella @kwmg40 I think the mountain lion was for the scream sound. They are remarkably eerie sounding in real life. 5d

BarkingMadRead The mountain lion was so random, and never truly explained! 5d

DebinHawaii I also answered about Bess in the last post & in my review. Happy not to have the usual introduction. I didn‘t like the mountain lion addition either. It seemed to have little purpose beyond being one of the creepy noises. 🤷🏻‍♀️ 1d

3. A few remarked on the illustrations in this book, especially the 1972 edition. Nancy & her friends look...well...from the 1970s. I could not find the info on the revised illustrations, but Randall Tandy created the original 1937 illustrations.

For those who noticed the illustrations, what did you think of them? Admittedly, I was a little surprised at the change in Nancy's appearance (I read the 1972 edition), & I'm not sure why. #NancyDrewBR

Bookwormjillk They described her hair differently too. It was always titan hair before. 6d

bookandbedandtea I read the 1972 version and was surprised by the dramatic change in everyone's appearance but I liked the illustrations. I thought they were well done. 6d

DGRachel I usually look at the illustrations but I guess I never paid too much attention. No dresses in this one that I can remember and that‘s a change. I also don‘t remember them calling Bess “plump” which is wonderful! 6d

See All 13 Comments

Ruthiella With the older illustrations, it‘s hard to imagine Nancy, George, and Bess being so active in dresses and skirts! But I will say that the 1970s illustrations in my copy were very casual. The girls looked like they were at summer camp rather than a resort. Also, the hair styles were “modern” much longer and looser than in previous illustrations. 6d

lauraisntwilder Nancy and the girls in shorts just seemed weird, but way more practical. 6d

dabbe Who wears short shorts? 😂 Well, they weren't that short, but still! And for the FIRST time, Bess is NOT described as being slightly overweight! She's depicted as “blond, pretty Bess Marvin.“ And only ONE reference to her liking food: “ 'You can't win a gold tournament on a diet like that,' protested Bess, who loved to eat.“

There's hope for these newer authors after all! 🤩 6d

MariaW Like @dabbe I noticed the positive change of the description of Bess‘ eating behaviour in an instant. In general, I thought the pictures are definitely more modern in this one. I liked the very first one with the haunted bridge. (edited) 5d

Sace I sought out images for the earlier editions and I like them way better than the 1972 edition. Unfortunately I couldn‘t find very many. 5d

kspenmoll Nancy looked taller & skinnier to me in 1972 edition esp in illustration on p. 3 when she is walking on the bridge. I also noticed the change in description of Bess. I am enjoying reading this series! 5d

kwmg40 The illustrations definitely gave a 1970's vibe. I too liked the more positive description of Bess, I didn't think the description, “loved to eat“, was negative since I too love to eat! 5d

Librarybelle I think we can all say that Nancy and her friends look like they can sleuth better in 1970s clothing! It‘s a nice change…I was just kind of surprised, but in a good way! @Bookwormjillk @bookandbedandtea @DGRachel @Ruthiella @lauraisntwilder @dabbe @MariaW @Sace @kspenmoll @kwmg40 5d

BarkingMadRead I was cracking up over the 70s cover, very dapper looking 🤣 5d

DebinHawaii I kind of liked the 70s casual look of them in the illustrations for this one. I thought it made them look more real & younger. The non-weight shaming Bess intro stood out to me immediately. I can‘t remember if it continues in more books but I hope so. 1d

2. We all know a haunted bridge plays a minor-ish role in this book (the title gives it away yet again). While this bridge is not haunted, there are other bridges in the world that claim to be.

Atlas Obscura posted 11 haunted bridges; link in comments. There is also a link to Sachs Covered Bridge in Gettysburg, near me. Oddly, I've not visited the bridge, but it's reportedly haunted by soldiers. #NancyDrewBR

Any thoughts?

Librarybelle Atlas Obscura link: https://www.atlasobscura.com/lists/haunted-bridges

Sachs Covered Bridge link: https://destinationgettysburg.com/members/sachs-covered-bridge/ 6d

DGRachel As someone who lived in Central Florida for over 20 years and drove on I-4 a lot, I don‘t remember a cellular dead zone over Lake Monroe, but now I kind of want to take a trip to WDW, just so I can make the drive again. 😂 6d

Bookwormjillk Hmmmm the Bunny Man bridge and Gettysburg aren‘t too far from me. I kind of want to go. 6d

See All 14 Comments

Ruthiella I‘d not heard of any of these. But if a house can be haunted then why not a bridge too? 👻 6d

dabbe I'd have to travel quite a bit to see some of those bridges since Arizona doesn't have a lot of water! 😂 It seems fitting, though, that a bridge might be haunted or have a “guardian to threshold“ since you are passing from one side to another or going from the known to the unknown. Lots of fairy tales usually place a troll there, don't they? Talking to you, THREE BILLY GOATS GRUFF! 🤩

Thanks for the link; I loved looking through it! 🩶 6d

MariaW Seems like Americans are pretty superstition since most of the bridges can be found in the US… 🤔🤔🤔And it looks like they inherited it from the British… 🤔🤔🤔 I was always attracted by The Legend of Sleepy Hollow and its bridge. This is one I definitely wouldn‘t cross. But I definitely like those old wooden bridges, we have a lot of them around here in Switzerland as well. They always evoke a feeling of a glorious past.

The Legend of Sleepy Hollow

(edited) 5d

kspenmoll Apparently we have 2 haunted bridges in CT. 5d

kwmg40 Looks like the closest haunted bridge to me is in Toronto, the Old Finch Avenue Bridge, where one can hear “the disembodied screams of a young girl.“ I'll have to visit one day! 5d

Librarybelle I‘ve heard the stories for years about Sachs Covered Bridge. It was part of the Confederate line during the battle, and there are supposed videos and photos of soldiers at the bridge, some that are violent. Seriously, I live near Gettysburg, went to college in Gettysburg, worked in Gettysburg for years, been on the battlefield hundreds of times, and yet have not visited the bridge. It‘s on a side road, so not part of the main roads. ⬇️⬇️⬇️ 5d

Librarybelle ⬆️⬆️⬆️ By the way, whether or not you believe in ghosts or spirits, there‘s some pretty crazy things that happen in Gettysburg. I‘ve captured a couple of odd images, and I‘ve had a few odd experiences that I cannot explain. 🤷🏻‍♀️ @DGRachel @Bookwormjillk @Ruthiella @dabbe @MariaW @kspenmoll @kwmg40 5d

Bookwormjillk @Librarybelle same, I‘m a believer 5d

Ruthiella @dabbe I thought of the Three Billy Goats Gruff too! 😅 Clearly it‘s imprinted on my brain. 5d

1. Welcome to our 15th discussion, #LittenDetectives ! The Haunted Bridge was originally published in 1937, with a revised edition in 1972. From what I can see online, there is no significant differences between the two editions, so this should make discussion easier!

What did you think of this book overall? How does this compare to others in the series? #NancyDrewBR

DGRachel It definitely felt less high-stakes, which was actually nice. Overall I enjoyed it. It felt a little more disjointed than some of the others, but that may be because I took 4 days to read it instead of one. 6d

Bookwormjillk I liked this one, but admit I skimmed the golf parts. 6d

bookandbedandtea I also liked that the mystery was low-stakes and could have done with a touch less golf. 😁 6d

See All 21 Comments

Ruthiella Like @DGRachel I enjoyed the more subdued tone of this one. Other than the falling bridge, there wasn‘t much craziness; no kidnapping, noggin‘ knocking, etc. 😅 As usual, the plot was entirely too coincidental, but that‘s par for the course with these books. 6d

DGRachel @Ruthiella “par for the course” 🤣🤣🤣 6d

Ruthiella @DGRachel That pun was unintentional! 😂😂😂 6d

lauraisntwilder I liked this one! I did secretly hope Nancy would lose the golf tournament, just to make things interesting, but I knew there wasn't much chance of that! 6d

TheAromaofBooks I grew a little weary of the golf aspect, mostly because of Nancy's perfection. I think as a younger reader I was enamored with all her skills, but as an adult I find her a tad annoying 😂 There is no way an 18-year-old is so good at so many things!! 😆 6d

dabbe @lauraisntwilder I agree! I am now hoping by this time that Nancy will maybe be not so fantastic at something--but I know that'll never happen! 😂 6d

MariaW I thought the title was some what misleading, it should have been “The missing Golf Ball” or something like that. At the first moment I assumed Bess or George would enter the tournament, but of course it had to be Nancy. The running about between the mysteries and the golf competition stressed me out completely. (edited) 5d

Sace @DGRachel this is something I noticed about my Nancy Drew reading. If I read it over a shorter period the book seems better. Otherwise I get that disjointed feeling too. 5d

Sace @Ruthiella that makes it even better! 5d

kspenmoll I usually read Nancy in one sitting. When I read about all her super human exploits( best golfer ever) I remind myself when I read these at about 8 yrs old she was a wonderful role model -independent, smart, etc. in charge of her life! 5d

kwmg40 I enjoyed this one. With the exception of Nancy's extraordinary golf abilities, the elements of this book seemed more plausible than those of many earlier books in the series. 5d

Librarybelle The golf was a bit much, and I appreciate the comments about Nancy having to win. Wouldn‘t it have been a good opportunity to show young readers you can come in second and still be a winner by being a “good sport” about it??? I think I liked this one because I feel like we get to see a bit more emotion from Nancy, especially dealing with Barty. Maybe I glossed over it in other books, but there are more descriptors of Nancy being annoyed or ⬇️⬇️⬇️ 5d

Librarybelle ⬆️⬆️⬆️ showing more emotion. I liked that. Less mystery, which is kind of a bummer for a mystery, but I also felt Nancy was more “human” than a character. @DGRachel @Bookwormjillk @bookandbedandtea @Ruthiella @lauraisntwilder @TheAromaofBooks @dabbe @MariaW @Sace @kspenmoll @kwmg40 5d

Librarybelle And I agree, @MariaW . The haunted bridge wasn‘t a major part of the story, so why use it as the title. I can only think they did that to make the book sound spooky for young readers. 🤷🏻‍♀️ 5d

DGRachel @Librarybelle It didn‘t register, but yes. I loved Nancy being honestly annoyed and showing more emotions. I agree with everyone else that I would have loved seeing Nancy not win and not play through the pain. I, too, understand the role model aspect, as I remember wanting to BE her when I was a kid, but as an adult, I‘d like her to be a better model for reality. 🤷🏻‍♀️ 5d

DGRachel @kspenmoll I usually do the single sitting or at least single afternoon thing for these, but this week has been nuts and I read in small snatches when I had a minute to breathe. One sitting is the way to go for me. 5d

Librarybelle I like that, @DGRachel …it would be nice for Nancy to be a better model for reality. 5d

DebinHawaii I am in agreement with everyone—I wanted her to be a strong second place in the tournament—just to be more realistic. 1d

I finished Book 15 for #NancyDrewBR last night & while this is a milder one in terms of the action, it was not bad. Nancy, her father, Bess & George are at a lodge while Mr. Drew investigates a jewel theft ring with Nancy‘s help—when she isn‘t playing in a semi-pro golf tournament (is there anything Nanners isn‘t a pro at?!?) or investigating a haunted bridge. No head injuries (instead it‘s a hand) & so ⬇️

I have to rate this one as one of my favorite #NancyDrewBR books so far!

What can‘t Nancy do? She golfs like a pro, keeps a creepy guy at bay (Barty is awful), and has a couple of mysteries to solve. Plus, a haunted bridge (obviously). I felt this one also showed a bit more emotion from Nancy, which gave her a bit more dimension.

Lcsmcat How are you liking Year of Wonder? I really enjoyed the Kapsberger lute piece. That one was new to both me and my husband. But we‘ve found a couple pieces where the movement numbers and names didn‘t line up with the ones on the recordings we found. It‘s not a big deal, just odd. 1w

AnneCecilie @Lcsmcat I‘m enjoying it. Except for that I listened to everything 2 yrs ago, they are all new to me. I listen on YouTube and have absolutely no idea of knowing if what I find is accurately correct then the title says it‘s the right piece. Most of them have been quite upbeat if that‘s the right word. 1w

They waited at the fountain till after 9 PM and now Nancy wants to call on people at their homes to gather information?? Nancy is letting her enthusiasm override her manners.

Librarybelle Oh my! Emily Post would so not be happy with Nancy! 2w

Ruthiella It‘s a little late, yes. But pre cell phone days, I think it might have been more common to just drop by someone‘s home? 🤔 Then again, Nancy is a determined sleuth! 2w

bookandbedandtea That's what I was thinking! 😄 2w

See All 6 Comments

bookandbedandtea @Ruthiella That's a really point! Still, it seems like there would be a polite cut off time, especially for calling on strangers! I still abide by the rule from my childhood about not calling people on the phone (except those in your inner circle) before 8AM or after 7 PM (dating myself 😂) so a late night unexpected drop in stood out to me as a no no. 2w

dabbe And how does one go about just finding real estate agents' home addresses? 🤔 2w

bookandbedandtea @dabbe Right?! I wouldn't think the yellow pages (or similar) would have included home as well as business addresses but maybe. 🤔 As @Ruthiella mentioned, things have changed quite a bit! 2w

No Nancy Noggin Knockouts in this one, but some hefty hand trauma that hinders Nancy while playing for the golf championship at a ritzy club where she, Bess, George, and the boys are there to help Carson Drew nab a gang of jewel thieves. Nothing out of the ordinary about this story! Nancy's pretty much a golf pro; Burt, Dave, and Ned are first-aid experts, and Burt is a champion sprinter who nabs a bad guy. What's not to like in this fun romp?

AlaMich Nancy Noggin Knockouts! 😂 It did seem to happen pretty frequently to poor Nancy. (edited) 2w

The look and feel of the illustrations has been changing (a bit) throughout the series but I feel like they made a big jump in this book. Suddenly the girls look like they are from the late 60s/ early 70s whereas the oldest one here (from Red Gate Farm) looks like they're still in the 40s.
I'm not sure I noticed that when I was a kid but I'm enjoying the differences now.

Librarybelle I wonder if the illustrator changed. I have not researched this one yet, but I‘ll have to see! 2w

Ruthiella I‘ve also noticed how the illustrations have changed. In the edition I am reading, the girls are playing golf in SHORTS! 😱😂 2w

4✨ It has been so long since I read a Nancy Drew book. I‘m so glad I picked this up again because I found myself wishing I had more time to read it. Now that I‘m older I think I can appreciate the older style of writing that didn‘t make a lot of sense to me as a kid. Nancy is working her way to a golfing tournament at a hotel she is staying at with her two besties Beth and George.⬇️

Roary47 2️⃣ When Nancy hits her ball into the rough she stumbles on a mysterious bridge that the caddies all think is haunted. Meanwhile, her father is trying to locate a person of interest in a jewelry smuggling scheme. 2y

Cleaning and getting rid of toys my oldest doesn‘t want. If you look closely you can see her arm. I‘m just guiding step by step to make sure it gets done to get ready for new things she‘s getting for Easter. Honestly, I‘m mostly reading while she makes a bigger mess. 😅

I picked up the 1937 edition on the left the the other day. I wanted to compare the text, as I've heard they were somewhat rewritten in later editions. I read the first chapter of the original, then read the first chapter of the 1972 edition. Very different! The gist was the same, but it was certainly a more substantial rewriting than I was expecting! Now I'll have to read all of each of them to find out how the rest was changed!

staci.reads Neat editions! I've always been curious about that too. I've heard some titles were much more extensively rewritten than others. Did the changes in yours seem to be changing the plot or updating settings? 7y

mabell @staci.reads Thanks! So far it was the same plot, but almost all the text had been rewritten. The beginning started in a different place than in the original. The "ghost" rumor is introduced immediately, instead of finding out about it further into the chapter i.e. the newer one starts with a bang ? 7y

batsy Oh, that's so interesting! I've never read the originals, as it were. I think it was after the second editions that the books were sold internationally... 7y

mabell @batsy I haven't read any either! The reprints are far more common, so that is what most of my collection is. It's fun comparing the two and seeing what was changed 😊 7y
