Nancy Drew

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban by J.K. Rowling is a great book because of its twist. I?m not going to tell what the ending is because you?ll have to read it. I like this book because its addictive. It makes you keep reading and reading until you finish the book.I am going to tell you about the twist. First Siars Black escapes from Azkaban, which is a jail for wizards. So Dementors surround Hogwart so nobody gets hurt. Finally, Potter meets Black. To find out the rest, read the book. The moral of the stories is not to be afraid take on anything. I hope you read this book.

The Mystery of The 99 Steps

So far out of all the Nancy Drew books I have read this is my favorite. This is my favorite because it holds you in supense the whole way through and you never want to put it down. I would recommend this book to people who love a thrilling supense. This is not a very hard book to read but it is not too easy either.

One of the most haunting Nancy Drews

A woman has a recurring dream. She is standing at the top of a flight of stairs, blindfolded, and next to her some one is whispering, '99 steps. 99 steps.' Nancy begins investigations, and is promptly threatened. That doesn't stop her from going to France, however. Alchemy, dreams, threats, and a mysterious past make this one of the most Gothic and memorable of Nancy's adventures. (P.S. This is a great one to read if you want to forget that you have a cold or something. I read it when I had hives and it was a life-saver.)
