Nancy Drew #8: Nancy's Mysterious Letter

Here is my review for Nancy Drew Book #8, Nancy's Mysterious Letter.

  The book starts off like this. Nancy, Bess and George are driving to Nancy's house when they pass he mail carrier, Ira Nixon, cold and weather beaten delivering mail. They offer to give him a ride, but he declines saying he has to stop at every house, and there is something particularly interesting for Nancy at the bottom, from London! Nancy promises him some hot coco when he gets to their house, and they go home and make it for him when he arrives. While they are in the living room, his mail bag in the foyer, someone comes and steals all the mail from the bag! Ira slumps into faint, and they call a doctor.

Now, I don't enjoy this book as some others, but I like it ok. Ned makes a big appearance, and so do Bess and George's dates, Dave Evans and Burt Eddleton. This mystery involves thievery, attempted harm, heiresses, and so much more. I give it a 7/10 because I just don't like some of the characters, and some parts are so sudden ans some parts are just unnecessary. I recommend it, but if I was giving a list of my top 20 favorites, it would not be this one. It is a quick read, as I read it in a day, but that goes the same for most of them. Actually, all of them. Now, to write the review on The Sign of The Twisted Candles!
