Nancy Drew: The Palace of Wisdom
Nancy Drew: The Palace of Wisdom | Kelly Thompson
14 posts | 22 read | 15 to read
Nancy Drew is seventeen and good at everything...ESPECIALLY solving crimes. But her totally-in-control-and-obviously-running-perfectly-smooth-(but-not-really) life hits a snag when a mysterious message drags her back to the hometown she left behind. There she'll have to find out which of her friends are still her friends, which are enemies, and who exactly is trying to kill her...and (hopefully) stop them before they succeed. KELLY THOMPSON (Hawkeye, Star Wars, Rogue & Gambit) and JENN ST-ONGE (Giant Days, The Misfits) team up to present an all-new modern spin on a classic mystery icon!

This was definitely a modern spin on the classic Nancy Drew stories. It was interesting, but it felt completely different from the originals. I enjoyed the art work.

A fun story and great artwork. I haven't read any of the original Nancy Drew, so I don't know how it compares, but I really enjoyed this one.

I read this June 16 and gave it 4 ⭐️ on Good Reads. I really liked this modern reboot. The art is cute and although the mystery could have been a little more mysterious, it was a fun read that has reminded me of how much I liked Nancy Drew as a kid.

annahenke I've been tempted to reread, but am afraid of being disappointed in the originals. 5y
Aaronlisa @annahenke I feel the same way, so this was a great way to read Nancy Drew without being potentially disappointed. It looks like they may also be doing a more noir take on Nancy and the Hardy Boys. That is something I am really intrigued by 5y
annahenke @Aaronlisa interesting! 5y

I like the artwork in this book; there is nice hair. But Nancy is unpleasant. She drops her two friends when she returns to her hometown. She hasn‘t talked to her hometown friends in years. She doesn‘t tell her friends the truth. She doesn‘t check in, her friends panic. She lets friends do chores around her without helping. Maybe the series gets better.

This Nancy Drew update is so good. I love plus size Bess. Queer George and George‘s gf is super cute. Look at Nancy Drew! A style icon. And the addition of the Hardy Boys to this storyline was a welcome surprise. I ship Nancy and Frank. Look at him, he‘s clearly in love. #NancyDrew #GraphicNovels #HardyBoys #LGBTQ #Nostalgia

If I had to describe this comic in a word: delightful. I never read Nancy Drew as a kid so I'm not as familiar with the characters / how they're being reimagined, but I loved these spunky, crime-solving teens. Gave me some excellent Veronica Mars vibes, and I absolutely can't wait to read more.
