A review by bplayfuli
The Secret of Shadow Ranch by Carolyn Keene

3.0

I grew up mostly reading the original editions of these books and I am just not a fan of the current editions. The older books were longer and more detailed. I've also noticed that some plots have been changed in the modern editions and again, the older versions were better in most cases. I think for this particular book, the new version is better, as the original didn't have much of a mystery. I do cringe when Nancy and Co get their cultural appropriation on. It's still not as racist as some of the original stories. Looking at you, Mystery at Lilac Inn.
