Pair that with the various people she meets during her investigations and Nancy’s life sure can’t be boring. She even has the Hardy Boys as sleuths that help on cases occasionally. Nancy has an entire life entwined with her mysteries and her friends Bess, George, and her boyfriend Ned. It made puzzles fun and always turns on my thinking skills. It’s a large fandom that as a kid always made me want to buy a magnifying glass.
There were various spin-off series including The Nancy Drew Files with over 100 books. Books #1-56 were hardback and #57-175 were paperback and smaller. Over 175 books were created for the original Nancy Drew series as time went by.
They even have mini conventions for Sleuths. Nancy also has a slew of websites dedicated to the history of her and her creation. “Her Interactive” has a blog, contests, and links to their Facebook page and YouTube channel. It takes no enjoyment away from the stories and you can relive the mystery as Nancy. It makes me rather happy, the games get your mind rolling. Don’t worry though, you always get a second chance. If you make a wrong move you get in trouble and the game ends. You go through her home solving small puzzles and clues. The family Thornton has had bad luck throughout their family lineage dating back to when Charlotte died. A woman named Charlotte died in a fire and now haunts the plantation she grew up on. If you couldn’t guess it’s a game about just that, a ghost. I have one of her games on my phone, (one of the many games I own of hers, I’ll be honest). Not to mention an entire line of computer/phone/kindle games created by a company known as, “Her Interactive.” Nancy’s popularity has fostered a series of interactive video games where you solve the mystery from the book. Mildred A Wirt Benson wrote 23 of the first 30 original Nancy Drew stories, breathing life into the teenage sleuth.įirst created in 1930, her stories have become so popular over the years that they’ve accrued multiple reprints of the tales. Over the years many people have taken up the task of creating new mysteries for her to solve. Carolyn Keene was a pseudonym for the ghostwriters that created the tales. Nancy Drew was first a name, a concept created by Edward Stratemeyer. Or when she gets threatened, or shot at, or – eh, you get the picture. She also never fails to almost give her father a heart attack every time she gets kidnapped. She never fails to get that snack from her housekeeper Nan for her adventures. This feisty and meddling teenager solves mysteries while juggling school and a boyfriend. It’s been 85 years since Nancy began sleuthing. What better way to celebrate Get Caught Reading month than by talking about Nancy Drew? It’s Get Caught Reading month and a book series that I’m always caught reading is Nancy Drew.
