rballenger's review against another edition
3.0
Type of read: Lunch time read.
What made me pick it up: Here's the deal, sometimes you just need an easy read for lunchtime or appointment waiting or those little moments where you can sneak in a few pages, Nancy Drew is just that. As a child of the 90s, I grew up on Nancy Drew and The Hardy Boys. These were the books that taught me how to read and adventure through pages. It's been fun revising the Nancy Drew series.
Overall rating: As I reread through the Nancy Drew series, I'm not going to rate them significantly or provide a detailed review. I'm simply reading these because it makes me happy and makes me think of simpler times. I will always recommend books like Nancy Drew, Hardy Boys, Box Car Children, Babysitters Club, Goosebumps, Animorphs, and so on as those are the books that drew me into reading and kept me excited to continue turning pages.

Nancy is vacationing with friends on the beach and Nancy befriends an orphaned girl who finds herself with new guardians who are less than spectacular.
Nancy finds herself once again in the middle of multiple mysteries, pretty sure they are all somehow connected, worried about her new friend.
Up to this point, this was probably one of my favorites, even though it’s only the third one. There was a lot of action and edge of your seat moments when you wonder what will really happen. Of course, Nancy is notorious for finding her way out of tough situations.

This one is the best so far but still not great, i liked it as it had more action and their was an actual mystery in this one. I will not be continuing this series at all.

5 stars. Fairly easily solved mystery plot-wise. Lots more action (complete with explosions) than the first two, most certainly.
