I do so love the Nancy Drew books. There are like a cozy comfort throwback to my teen years. Such a light hearted, gripping mystery tale wrapped up in a short, sweet story. Also I realised how uncomplicated the youth are in these books. There is so little talk of mental struggles and moping around. There is so much proactivity and enterprise, instead. A very much different world back then, I think. Love it. Oh, and these books are great for readathons. Quite easy to find books that match prompts and a fast read.
