I have 5 questions posted as spoilers that can be found on my feed, the book‘s feed, or by searching #NancyDrewBR . This month‘s book & the varying editions made it a little hard for specific discussion points, so I posted some generic ones. Answer whenever, & feel free to post other thoughts in the comments.

Thanks for reading with me! Look for info about next month tomorrow!

The Secret of Shadow Ranch | Carolyn Keene

so-so

Sadly, not my favorite of the series so far. Maybe it‘s because the dangers Nancy faces are not as intense as in prior books…kidnapping and dust storms and falling from a horse are dangers for sure, but compared to other books, well…

I like how Nancy brings in chemistry to this one, which highlights the sciences for girls.

Discussion on Friday the 15th, #LittenDetectives ! #NancyDrewBR

Ruthiella I like how the bad guys are sign-posted pretty much from the start. 🤣 I think that might be to allow the child reader to help “solve” the mystery. I knew that Shorty guy was shifty! 1mo

Librarybelle @Ruthiella 😂 True! 1mo

Hooked_on_books I love that you feel Nancy isn‘t imperiled enough. 😂 1mo

Librarybelle @Hooked_on_books It‘s so weird! The last two books were pretty heavy with danger. This one…not so much! 😂 1mo

TheAromaofBooks I can't believe we read two totally separate books! 😂 1mo

Librarybelle @TheAromaofBooks The discussion will be so bizarre! 😂 1mo

AmandaBlaze I remember loving this one as a kid as I was horse crazy back then. In comparison to the last few, it doesn't have quite as much action. Then again, she was on vacation. lol
I was happy to see Bess and George. 1mo

TheAromaofBooks For real!! I'm pretty sure that nothing that happened in your book happened in mine except for going to a ranch and riding some horses! 😆 1mo

Librarybelle So happy to see Bess and George, @AmandaBlaze ! 1mo

Librarybelle @TheAromaofBooks 😂 1mo

Bookwormjillk This one seemed shorter than the others, but also it dragged. This is the first one where I started feeling a little bored. 1mo

Bluebird Lol! I‘m the odd one out. This is my favorite so far. However, i think it may be due to the change in media. The prior ones I read on my kindle app. This one I read via the audiobook. Laura Linney‘s narration was wonderful. I‘m hoping to get other audiobooks-but most have long library wait lists. 1mo

Librarybelle @Bookwormjillk It didn‘t feel shorter for me, but I can relate to the thought of it dragging a bit. 1mo

Librarybelle @Bluebird That‘s the beauty of reading - everyone thinks differently!!! I get the Laura Linney audio version would be perfect. 1mo
