Enjoyable read for a fan of Nancy Drew since I was seven or eight, very hands-on but more in-depth than I'd expected. Only 4/5 because at the end, when they discussed the making of Nancy Drew and its different writers and editors over the years, they didn't go much into detail, as has been the case every time I've tried to figure out what changes were made to the original series a few decades later.

If you loved Nancy Drew, I'd definitely pick it up! I'm glad I bought it at Borders super on sale and will have it to look through again in future. ( )
