Nancy Drew #3: The Bungalow Mystery

 This is my 3rd review for the Nancy Drew series, The Bungalow Mystery.

  The book starts off like this: Nancy and Helen Corning are vacationing at Twin Lakes and are boating when a storm hits and capsizes them. Nancy has to rescue Helen because she hit her arms on the side of their boat, which sank, and now her arms are numb. Nancy is towing her to shore and calling for help at the same time because she doesn't think she will make it. Someone hears her, and rescues them and they head for a cove, but not before almost hitting the rocky shoreline and dieing. they make it, get onto firm land, and head for a bungalow for shelter.

  It starts off pretty good, but I don't really like this one. Hmm, how should I explain this without revealing everything... Laura's "parents" are cruel criminals and abuse Laura so she comes to Nancy to take the case. In a long, Twisting Turn of events, Nancy solves the case, and you can see her improving with her work, and bravery. Overall, I would give this a 5/10 because I didn't Like the characters very much, you never see them again in the series, even though Laura and Nancy seem to become new best buddies, and because of how cruel Laura's "parents" were. I just didn't like that. In the series, there are multiple books that involve abuse and I just don't like them as much as the other books. I will probably give them low ratings, just so you know.

Now to go read The Mystery At Lilac Inn!
