Confusing but exciting

This book belonged to my mother,she told me that she read this book when she was my age, 8. I was interested, so I read it. My dad and I read most of it together but some times I read it independently I Im sure I liked it as much as my mom did, and I'm sure you will too.

My favorite Nancy Drew book!

I love all Nancy Drew books but this was my favorite! It was so interesting I couldn't put it down! I read it when I was little and I could read it over and over!

This book was somthing that I couldn't put down!

This book was somthing that I was always in the mood to read. I was solving the mystery right along with Nancy. Just when you think you have figured it out it completely changes. Along with the mystery it add romance, crime, and excitement! This is the best book I have ever read. Once you start you can not put it down! I would recomend this to anyone who loves Romance novles and a Great mystery too. I was amazed at how real this was, it seemed as if it happen yesterday or an hour ago and it was not just a story. The author makes you seem like you are Nancy's best friend. This was an Amazing Book! You have got to read it!!!

I like this book because of the story behind the castle.

I like the book alot. It's very interesting, especially the use of the castle's history. Nancy always keeps me on the edge of my seat. I never tire of reading Nancy Drew Mysteries. My mom and I read them together. We have read 12 so far.

Nancy and Co. solve a mystery involving a castle and a child

I liked the Moostone Castle Mystery very much, although it is not the best Nancy Drew book I have read. To me the book seemed to happen very fast and the conflict was out of touch because it happened more in the past than in the present. The fact that the book reads very fast also attributed to the problems listed above. The setting of a castle kept the reader interested. Nancy's stalkers got me confused and I had to wonder: How many times did they eat at the Brass Kettle?
