Reading groups

[Shayleigh]

I've been thinking that to get something active going in this group we should read books together and then talk about them. There are plenty of ND books, so we would probably be able to do it forever haha. Does anyone want to try it?

[Charmaine]

That's a good idea, Shayleigh. :-) Could we read #23, The Mystery of the Tolling Bell? I'm asking because that is the next Nancy Drew book I have to read - I'm reading them in order. But if we read something else that is fine, too. :-)

[Shayleigh]

I would love to read that one, but unfortunately I don't have it :( Any others that you want to do?

[Charmaine]

You can look for the Nancy Drew books in the library - most libraries I go to have the books. :-) Hmm, you can choose one! I want to read any book past book 22, but anyone that you'd like is fine with me. :-)

[Shayleigh]

Well I have #24, so I guess that's the next best thing! Do you want to do that one?

[Charmaine]

Yes, that one is a good choice. :-) Thanks! I've read that one a while back and enjoyed it.

[Shayleigh]

Ok, cool! Now when do you want to start, and would you like to read a few chapters at a time, then post updates, or just read freely?

[Charmaine]

We can start anytime now :-) I have to get the book from the library sometime this upcoming week. Let's read freely - that seems to work better for other groups that I'm in :-) what do you think?

[Shayleigh]

That sounds good :D I guess we should start a new discussion board topic for it.

[Charmaine]

I created a new discussion topic for the Clue in the Old Album. :-) Have you started reading it? I just read The Mystery of the Tolling Bell, but I will start on the Old Album soon.

[Shayleigh]

I haven't started yet...but I will today!

[Caitlin I ♥ animals!]

what number do we have to read?

[Shayleigh]

#24, The clue in the old album.

[Caitlin I ♥ animals!]

ok. idk if I have it

[Charmaine]

Caitlin, you can borrow it from the library if it's there :-) that's where I got mine! Shayleigh, great that you will start today! I think I will, too. :-)

[Leah]

The only Nancy Drew books I have are from the '80s/'90s. The case files.

[Charmaine]

Caitlin, I ♥ me guinea pig wrote: "I have my mom and aunts old ones"

That will be fine :-) check to see if the Clue in the old album is one of them :-)

[Caitlin I ♥ animals!]

Okay. We are going to the library today anyway

I posted this in another area on here but... gonna repost and hope that's okay lol
I wish this group was more active :( I saw a friend had put a Nancy Drew novel on her list of books to read and it reminded me of my previous devotion to reading Nancy Drew novels as a child. So in 2018 I am going to work my way through all of the novels again, I wish I could do it in one go but sadly money is not even close to unlimited lol. Anyone else want to join me in this?? I think it would be fun and interesting to revisit that which I was so in love with as a child.
