#LittenDetectives : Our next Nancy Drew adventure involves an ivory charm (imagine that)!

Thankfully, both versions are similar with a few changes, not like the vastly different plot lines in the last two books!

Discussion will take place on November 15th. Everyone is welcome to join! Please let me know if you wish to be added or removed from the tag list! #NancyDrewBR

Librarybelle Thanks for reposting! 3w
JenlovesJT47 @Librarybelle can you add me to the list please? I‘ve never read any Nancy Drew books but it sounds like fun! Are you reading them in order? 2w
Librarybelle @JenlovesJT47 We are! We started the end of last year and are now up to book 13. 2w
JenlovesJT47 @Librarybelle awesome! I‘m going to start with book 1 and try to catch up ASAP 🤓 2w

DGRachel Yay! My library actually has this one. Fingers crossed my hold comes in on time! 3w
dabbe I hope it's not going to be about poaching elephants or something of that nature. 😱 3w
Ruthiella Looking forward to this! Now we are well into the books I didn‘t read or have access to as child. It‘s an adventure! 3w
Bookwormjillk I think I have the 1930‘s version of this one too. It‘s a relief to hear they‘re more similar this time! 3w
Sace Can‘t wait! 3w
Librarybelle @Ruthiella It definitely is! 3w
Librarybelle @Bookwormjillk Yes! From what I read, there are some name changes and maybe some slightly condensed scenes, but same storyline. It‘ll make for easier discussions! 3w
julieclair Oh my, @dabbe , I hadn‘t even thought of that. But given the date this was written, it‘s certainly possible. 😢 3w
dabbe @Librarybelle 🖤🧡🖤 3w

#LittenDetectives : I finally managed to post 5 questions! I normally use the Litsy website to do these, but the site was causing me major issues this morning. Yikes!

Please find the questions on the book‘s feed, my feed, or by searching #NancyDrewBR .

Next month‘s book is The Mystery of the Ivory Charm, and it appears that both editions are similar in plot.

I will post next month‘s info tomorrow!

Librarybelle I forgot to mention that this is another book written by Mildred Benson. The 1972 edition was revised by Grace Gote and Harriet S Adams. 3w
Ruthiella Sorry the posting was such a chore! Thank you for running this read along. It is such fun. 😃 3w
Bookwormjillk Thank you! 3w

#LittenDetectives : 2 weeks until our next #NancyDrewBR discussion! What will Nancy find in the hollow oak? Whether in Canada or at a dig site in the states, you just know Nancy will run into trouble (and possible head ouchies).

Discussion on the 15th!

DGRachel Have to buy this one - my library doesn‘t even have a copy at all! 1mo
Librarybelle @DGRachel I better check my library! 1mo
Ruthiella Awesome! Looking forward to Nancy‘s next adventure. 1mo

October's book also features very different storylines:
1935-Nancy gets a piece of land in Canada!
1972-NYC detectives ask for Nancy's help that leads her to a dig site in Illinois.
Discussion on October 15th!

DGRachel It is so wild to me how different the editions are! 2mo
Librarybelle I know, @DGRachel ! It‘s so bizarre! 2mo

BarkingMadRead Can‘t wait! 2mo
TheAromaofBooks Good grief, those don't even sound like the same stories! 😂 2mo
Librarybelle @TheAromaofBooks I know! At least both involve a hollow oak somehow. 😂 2mo
TheAromaofBooks I just finished reading the discussion questions for the Broken Locket, and can't believe how different those editions were as well! Apparently the “update“ instructions were just... find a way to tie-in with the original title! 😂 2mo
jlhammar I don‘t have this one, but I think I have 13 & 14 so might jump back in Nov & Dec. 2mo
Librarybelle Sounds good, @jlhammar ! 2mo

It‘s time for our discussion, #LittenDetectives ! It‘s a little hard to discuss two very different storylines, but let‘s try anyhow. 😂

I have 6 questions posted as spoilers that can be found on my feed, the book‘s feed, or by searching #NancyDrewBR . Respond whenever, and feel free to add anything else you wish to discuss!

Next month‘s The Message in the Hollow Oak also features very different storylines. More when I post tomorrow!

Ruthiella Pretty sure I didn‘t read The Message in the Hollow Oak before because I don‘t recognize the cover! Excited to find out more. 2mo
DGRachel @Ruthiella I don‘t think I read it either. At the age I read these, I would have seen that skull and already been too scared to buy or read it! 😂 2mo
kspenmoll I read all her books as a kid- wish I had those editions but rereading has been fun, especially since I know I loved these books, Hardy Boys, Happy Hollisters, Cherry Ames. 2mo
Bookwormjillk I never read them as a kid. They‘re all new to me! I bought a copy of this one last time I visited 2mo
DebinHawaii From the plot description I don‘t remember this one necessarily but I‘m pretty sure I read it. 2mo

Phantom boats, pirated records, an iron bird, and noggin knockouts galore! Nancy has a couple new mysteries on her hands, thanks in part to Carson Drew asking for her help. Another fun read! #NancyDrewBR

#LittenDetectives : Tomorrow is discussion day! Questions will be posted late morning Eastern time!

Ruthiella Looking forward to seeing the discussion! 2mo
BarkingMadRead I‘m way behind but I‘ll jump into the discussion as soon as I‘m done! 2mo

We‘re two weeks away from our next #NancyDrewBR discussion, #LittenDetectives !

Remember, there is a massive difference between the original edition and the revised edition. A few of you were able to snag the old edition; it‘ll be interesting to see the changes in the story.

Questions posted on September 15th!

BarkingMadRead Started it today! I have the newer version 2mo
Ruthiella Yahoo! What will Nancy get up to this time? 😄 2mo
Librarybelle @Ruthiella I know! Whatever happens, you know she‘s an expert at finding the solution 😂 2mo
