Kindness Personified

I read this book not too long ago after a long break from reading the hardcovers. I forgot how much I liked it! In this book, Nancy and the gang helps out a girl and her granny at their farm, and becomes entangled in solving a mystery involving counterfeiting, greed, and a KKK-like "clan." What really stood out in this book was Nancy's eagerness to help others, and her generosity. I love how Nancy shows so much concern for Joanne. She drove Joanne to different towns in search of a job, and went to her farm to be a paying boarder just so they wouldn't have to sell the place. You don't read about that sort of thing in the paperbacks nowadays. I haven't read a YSPC in a really long time, so it was a treat to read something so refreshing and different! You really lose sight of the real Nancy when you start reading paperbacks. I've never really realized how different Nancy had become since the 50s, or the 30s, for that matter, until now. This book is the quintessential example of Nancy Drew being a great role model.S.J.

Great Book

I loved reading this book. It was very interesting and made me analyze all the characters to figure out who the counterfeiters were. I was amazed at the twists and turns of this mystery story. This book is about a group of people who make false money and try to pass it off as real money. Nancy, Bess, George, and Joan help uncover the group and stop the production of the fake money. There is a strong climax when Nancy and her friends are trapped in a cave and a caught. Basically, this was one of the best books I have read. I would strongly recommend it to anyone who wants to read a great mystery.

an exciting and captivating adventure

This was one of the most exciting Nancy Drew books. It all starts when Bess insists on buying mysterious perfume. From there her, Nancy, and George are plunged into a mysterious mix of codes, secret hideouts, and unscroupulous characters that results in the girls being held prisoners in a most unlikely place. The story results in Nancy cleverly helping the owner of Red Gate Farm and capturing her abductors.
