I finished my first Nancy Drew read ever, The Secret of the Old Clock! It was good! It was a bit dated, but that is to be expected considering it was written nearly 100 years ago (1930). I did develop one pet peeve - the author referred to Nancy as “the young sleuth” far too many times in this short book. Overall, it was a fun book and I’d definitely check out more in the series!
