Nancy Drew Books

This is a really cute item. My daughter loves it and uses it to carry any book that she is reading. It's not meant to haul lots of items, but a couple of books with a notepad (Nancy Drew, of course) and a pen works really well.

For starters....the set includes the first two books of this classic and well loved series which makes it a perfect gift for any young reader ranging from ages 8 to 13 or so. They nest inside this super cute Nancy Drew book purse. I gave it as a gift this past holiday season to an 8-year-old relative and she went absolutely crazy over it, carrying it over her shoulder all evening. I also included a Nancy Drew journal and Nancy Drew Mad Libs which I purchased on here. This product is highly recomended to anyone looking for the perfect gift for the young, avid reader or lover of mystery series.

I purchased this for my grandaughter who is collecting the entire Nancy Drew series. This item is something a bit different to add to her collection. She was thrilled with the gift.

I purchased the Pocketbook Mysteries for my duaghter's birthday. She loved it. Not only did it include two Nancy Drew mysteries, but it also came in a very cute book style purse/carrier! A great present and value!
Lastly, we have not seen this item in our local bookstores...so it is definitely a unique item for your Nancy fan!

This is an ideal gift for the hardcore fan of Nancy Drew mystery stories. There are two of the old stand-by stories, The Hidden Staircase and The Secret of the Old Clock, featuring the wonderful pen and ink illustrations from Nancy's early days.

But, the piece de resistance is the wonderful tote-bag the books are packed in. Needless to say, they will make you the envy of any fashion-conscious reader of mysteries wherever you go.

This would be a good value for the bag, alone!

I always knew that Bess was going to have problems at some point with her weight but I really didn't know when. It was thoroughly suprising what she did in this book. Nancy tries out for a tv station and Micheal Giannelli also gets the job. You can tell that they wll have a rough time in the beginning and eventually fall in love. This brings real life issues of college life along with a thrilling mystery. I liked it alot.

Want Romance? Want Mystery? It's all here in the 23rd edition of Nancy Drew on Campus, Otherwise Engaged! It was a really good book because it was not only focused on romance but also mystery. Passions are running so high, that Nadia and Jake decide to get married just so Nadia can stay in the U.S. But Jake finds out that looks can be decieving. Meanwhile Nancy's quit her job at Wilder Times to work at TV station WWST. But she's found out that it's not all glamour and glitz especially with her co-host Michael Gianneli. And Stephanie has got a crazy plan to cement her bond with Jonathan.

Nadia is such a brat! Pretending to love Jake, when she was only tempted by him, and really had a husband back in Russia. What a fruit loop! Jake is left broken-hearted, and in pain. And Nancy feels bad for him, but you can tell it's not going to be a couple thing.

Nadia is hiding something and Nancy knows it. But Nancy has better things to deal with. Like her co anchor person at the tv station. Cute, he's bossy and he has a ego the size of Lake Michian. Stephine is finding out the married life is all of what is made up to be. When Nancy heard that Jake is Nadia she isn't about to stand around. So she goes out on an investation and learns more about Nadia then anyone ever expected. But you will have to read the book to find out.

OTHERWISE ENGAGED, the January selection of The Personal Touch! miniseries is not to be missed. Cara Summers presents the story of Tyler Sheridan, who discovers through the personal ads that her groom will miss the wedding. When she seeks out a Private Detective to find her fiancé, Tyler meets just the wrong guy at just the right time. When these direct opposites meet, the chemical reaction is extraordinary!

Thy have nothing in common except passion. Tyler's a Boston socialite and president of her company. She hires Nick Romano to find her erstwhile fiancé. From the first glimpse of the sexy, hunky Nick, Tyler's hooked. In the six months she'd known Richard, she'd never known him to stir anything close to the reactions Nick produces instantly. Sheridans don't hit people and they never loose their temper. They certainly don't fall for PIs. But in Nick's company, Tyler finds herself behaving in strange and different ways.

From the moment Tyler shows him her grandmother's recommendation, Nick finds Tyler getting to him. He'd already had the electric and phone disconnected, his boxes are packed, and Nick is ready to pull up stakes, leaving the world of PIs behind for becoming a lawyer. Then Tyler sashays into his office, convincing him to accept the case. His instant attraction is only cooled by the need to find out what Richard is up to. When Nick realizes that the missing in a fake, a liar and a kidnapper, he becomes determined to find the truth about the missing fiancé. And while they are otherwise engaged, Nick and Tyler may find that their hearts have a mind of their own.

If not for the personal touch, these dynamic characters would never have met. Even the twist of the title provides a nice giggle with its play on words. Indeed, Cara Summers creates a humorous, highly entertaining contemporary romance with her delectable writing style. Very highly recommended.

My granddaughter is a real fan of Nancy Drew as was her mother when she was young. These older books are very well done and should not be confused with the ragged mess of political correctness currently being published as Nancy Drew. Stick to the older books.

I am 10 years old and I absolutely love this book. The story was fun and exciting to read and I couldn't put it down. This was my first Nancy Drew book and I'm hooked! I plan to read a lot more of Nancy Drew Mysteries. If you love adventure and mystery stories, you'll love this book and even if you don't, you will still enjoy it.

Eighteen-year-old amateur detective, Nancy Drew, is thrilled to have the opportunity to put her own spin on a true century-old mystery involving a pair of lace cuffs, a Belgium man, and a priceless treasure that all disappeared without a trace. She instantly begins working hard on her entry, in an attempt to win the prize money that the magazine is offering. After all, while Nancy may not need the prize money, she is determined to win it to donate to a good cause that she has been following. However, after Nancy completes her short story, she discovers that her contest entry has disappeared. Nancy instantly knows that it hasn't simply been misplaced. She believes that it was stolen, and is set on finding the culprit. Before she can even begin searching for the person who stole her tale of mystery and intrigue, however, she learns that another contestant has entered a story identical to hers. Now Nancy knows that there is a real mystery here, that needs to be solved instantly. Enlisting the help of her best friends, and fellow detectives, Bess and George, the three girls head to Belgium, in search of the truth involving not only the century-old mystery that Nancy was writing about, but how it ties in with her short story. Now, as the three detectives begin entering dark tunnels, hidden rooms, and ghostly canals, they realize that there is something much more sinister going on. Someone is trying to keep something hidden, while others are attempting to steal priceless jewels, and items that have become beautiful heirlooms. But what intrigues the three sleuths even more than all that is the romantic mystery that is slowly becoming uncovered. One that illustrates how important love is, and how far people will go to be together - even when their families forbid it.

I have read very few NANCY DREW books, preferring to stick to the TRIXIE BELDEN series. However, when I stumbled upon Carolyn Keene's THE SECRET IN THE OLD LACE, I found that it looked too good to pass up. As a fan of international travel, magazine writing, and mystery, I found that this particular Nancy Drew installment was right up my alley. It contained all of the aspects that I am interested in, and combined them in a delightful way that truly brought the story to life, and made the reader feel as if they were right there, alongside Bess, Nancy, and George, as they visited museums, saw the sights of Belgium, and work to solve a mystery that was absolutely thrilling. Nancy is such an appealing character, whose bravery and determination is admirable; while her ability to overcome and challenge anything from ghosts to thieves is exciting. Her two best friends each bring a dash of pizzazz into the story, and make it even more intriguing. Keene has penned a novel that certainly stands the test of time, and really brings a bit of wholesomeness to a dying genre. A thrilling tale of suspense and international travel that keeps you reading long into the night!

I thought this book was cool. Nancy, Bess, and George go to Belgium to help a friend of Bess's mother. A lot of creepy, awful things happen. Nancy enters a mystery contest, but her manuscript gets stolen, someone tries to break in their house, and in Belgium lots of things happen, too. There are many suspicious people there, Ms. Marvin's friend's diamond pendant is stolen, there are lots of creepy trapdoors and passageways, even a ghost! I guarantee that you'll love this book if you read it.

It's nice to sit back and have the story readto you. I can close my eyes and let my imagination take over. The story lives up to the Nancy Drew series with twist and turns in the plot (not wanting to ruin the plot i won't go into it here).It was read with a lot of energy and excitment that realy added to the expiernce. I wish they would release more of the series like this. I would highly recomend the expierence to anyone who enjoys Nancy Drew.

What's more fun than a three day week-end at a ski-lodge? Nancy and her best pals Bess and George are there with Carson Drew for lessons and special winter fun. George even brought a gorgeous lucky charm that she wears around her neck on a ribbon for luck on the slopes!

Everyone is having a blast, but when things start going wrong, there are lots of suspects and clues for America's favorite girl detective to itemize in her trusty blue notebook! There are lots of pranks and dirty tricks, and George's beautiful necklace has gone missing!

Could it be the pesky identical twins who are trouble from the very start? Or could it be someone you won't suspect 'till Nancy solves the case of The Ski Slope at the very end of the trail?

Young readers looking for a thrilling story with an exciting setting will love this wonderful Carolyn Keene story. It's no mystery why her books are always at the top of the charts with her young fans!

Nancy Drew is the main character in this book. Nancy and her friends went skiing. They did not like their skiing lessons. One of Nancy's friends lost her necklace. Now they
wouldn't go skiing because the necklace was their lucky charm. Nancy finds out who took the necklace.

I gave this book five stars because it was exciting! I wanted to keep reading it.

I gave this to a 6 year old as her first Nancy Drew book and she loved it.

Young readers will have fun at a sleepover party complete with pajama fashion show! What makes it more fun for the guests, is the addition of their oh-so-poopular dolls at the bash. The mystery begins when Hollywood disappears, and must be found before the next day to appear at a tea scheduled by the hostess' father.

Our Nancy is only eight years old, and her fans will enjoy seeing how she takes charge and works with others to unravel the mysteryof the missing doll.

My daughter just started second grade and she is already on the third book in this series. They are funny, well written and perfect for her reading level (she reads at her grade level) I love that fact that she is getting an introduction to the Nancy Drew characters, as I loved this series when I was a girl and in a couple of years she can read all my old Nancy Drew books herself. I highly recommend this series.

My daughter is a second grader and loves this series. She has read all the available ones. She can't put the book down till she has read the last page. It is addictive but great for little girls.

This book is about a girl who invites Nancy to her house for a sleepover birthday party. The next morning the girl's favorite doll is gone, but she doesn't tell her parents. Then her Dad asks her to bring her doll to a tea party the next day. Can Nancy find the doll in time? Read the book to find out. This book is good for an 8-year-old because Nancy is eight years old in this book.

I read a Nancy Drew book. I liked it a lot. Nancy Drew and Bess Marvin are detective�s .Nancy and Bess were going to watch Cindy. (Cindy is a model) But Cindy was missing! So Nancy and Bess are trying to find her. It�s a great mystery! Find out what happens!

First of all I just want to say this is sad that no one can make a little effort to write a review on one of the best series. Anyways, I liked this book. It had everything like all ND mysteries do. Action, adventure, romance (sorta) and mystery (duh).

This mystery takes place in chicago.Nancy is the major character,Of chors she would be because she is the detective! Her best friend Bess is one of the major characters too!The minor character is Cindy who got kidnapped. The problem occurs when Nancy and Bess go to chicago. To see there friend Cindy who is a modle. But when they show up to the shoot Cindys missing!! Ater that Nancy and Bess go on a wild gosse chase to find out the unexpeted.The most sacrist part of the story is we Nancy is waiting to get on to the subway when someone slashes her jacket with the a razor-blade!The stroie ends in away you didn't think possible!

This book was SO great!! People, if you are reading this, I strongly encourage you to read this book!...If readers read, then everyone that have careers will follow!' my preschool teacher likes to say. If people can't read, then nobody would be able to do anything that has to do with literature. Fashion, modeling, action, mystery, and Nancy...the top five things that girls ABSOLUTELY love!!

This book was sooo good. It aws scary plus with something older kids like. Modeling and mystery. I was upset that some of the Nancy Drew books weren't very good but after I read this one I kept wanting to read more and more!

As a reader, I think that Terry McMillan is one of the best authors there is. I have read all her books, and I really enjoyed each and everyone of them. I recommend for anyone to try and read her books. There Great.

Disappearing Acts examines the up and downs of a relationship and believe me Franklin and Zora had their fair share of problems. Franklin despite of what he took Zora through really was a good man he just had some issues. I don't think Terry can top this one.

This book was so good that I ended up reading the whole book the day that I got it. Its just hard to explain you have to check it out for yourself.

When my English teacher told us that the class had to read a book and present an oral summary in class, I was a little apprehensive because I only read when I have to. So, for the literary-challenged she brought in some of her favorite books, one of which was Disappearing Acts. I started reading the book in class, and I couldn't put it down!! That afternoon I went straight to the bookstore and bought it and finished it that night. McMillian really has a talent of grasping the true characters, reaching into their souls, and telling the reader Franklin and Zora's story of dating, love, careers, and sex!! McMillian definately has the power of empathization down to a skill!! A must-buy-tear-jerker!!!

It may have been a little slow and boring in the first few chapters, but as soon as it hit the other chapters, it rocked!

Me and My cousin have been reading nancy drews together lately, and so far we have read 5 books each! This was the 3rd book I read, and By far my favorite, (probably because I guessed who it was correctly) Out of all of the books. I highly suggest you read this book, maybe check it out or get buy It if you are a person who reads things over and over again, instead of a one time use only.

What happens as Nancy gets deeper and deeper into her case. Will she servive what she is getting in to? Will she live threw the treatmeant that a certain someone is planning for her? Can Nancy solve this case and save her life as well? There is only one way to find out. READ IT!!! R.B age 12

This book is for you if you want thrills and suspense. If you want to know the story, stop reading this review and go get the book!

IF YOU LOVE BOOKS THAT KEEP YOU ON THE EDGE OF YOUR SEAT, OR GREAT READING THAT KEEPS YOU GUESSING, THIS IS A MUST TO READ! ADVETURE, LIGHT ROMANCE, MYSTERY. THE PERFECT COMBINATION! MELISSA NIMM
