I can't remember if book #1 was my first Nancy Drew's book I read or not. But I was young and I became hooked. I have all the OG books. I learned to love mysteries and every other year growing up I read thru the entire series again and again. They were comforting.

Nancy drew was/still is everything I want to be. A strong-willed stubborn female who solves problems... and always has awesome adventures. She taught me to love reading. As I child, I read all of the Nancy Drew books and have been an unashamed book-nerd ever since. I think I will have to re-read a few for old times sake. And of course, if I ever have a little girl will let her take a swing at Nancy Drew. And a little boy... Hardy Boys. What is childhood without the adventurous depth of these books? TV/movies will never compare.
