Nancy Drew: The Hidden Staircase


I am reading Nancy Drew: The Hidden Staircase. The Nancy Drew books are a series of 50 books about an 18 year old girl detective who solves lots of mysteries. This book was published in 1959 which means it's 50 years old. In fact even my mom read these books when she was a kid. I have never read a book this old before but now that I have started to read Nancy Drew I know that even if a book is old people can still like them today.

The story can be funny but creepy at the same. Every time I put in my book mark to take a break from reading, the story is always a cliffhanger. The police never seem to help Nancy when she solves her mysteries, but some of the people that do help her are her dad, her friend Helen, and an old lady named Miss Flora.

I really enjoy this book because you gather clues throughout the book and you can try to solve the mystery yourself.
