My first review is on Nancy Drew's first ever mystery, book #1, The Secret of The Old Clock.
For it being Nancy's first mystery, she does pretty well. I have read through the series multiple times, and you can see things in the first book that stick with her throughout the series,for instance, The first sentance:
"Nancy Drew, an attractive girl of 18, was driving home along a country road in her new dark-blue convertible."
In the series, she eventually gets a new car or two, but that car is with her in Every.Single.Book; all the way up to book 64.
You can tell Nancy is first time detective, and throughout the series, she grows better as one, but she isn't perfect as most books would portray a teen. She makes mistakes, and she learns new things.
I won't spoil it, but I would give this book a 8/10, just because It wouldn't even make my top 20 list out of the series and because I really hate some of the characters and their plots. Some of them were useless to the storyline. If it was on the book alone, it would be a 10/10.

Nancy Drew: The books
Okay, so me and Andrea were talking last night, and we realized I haven't read any of the books in FOREVER!! So I will be reading every one. I will probably do reviews on them to. So today I started The Secret of The Old Clock. There are 64, so there will be a lot of reviews. Plus, that will mean I post more, so yay!
Should I do reviews on the Nancy Drew games, specifically The Silent Spy, The Shattered Medallion, and The Labyrinth Of Lies? Comment what you think!
Thanks!

My theory: LIE characters
Hello! Sorry about not posting on Friday, I had nothing to post about, and I was feeling lazy. Oops.
My theory is this: On Monday, the character bios will be released because the trailer is to be released on Tuesday and Little Jackalope said that character bios would be released very soon before the trailer/pre-orders.
I am so excited to see them, especially Melina Rosi's! From the screenshots released so far, I think Nancy might actually go to the Underworld, so if we get bios on Greek gods, that would be pretty cool; but it just doesn't seem like something Her Interactive would do. Not everyone believes in them, so I guess it kinda seems like a religion in that kind of sense. On the other hand, from the game description, it seems like Nancy might be part of some sort of really detailed play, and when you solve the mystery, the curtains will come down and you will hear clapping. Also, that brings me back to the point of that not being something Her Interactive would do. I don't know, it's just my theory.
Oh, and I will try to start doing labels and posting what the weekend puzzle from Her Interactive at the end of the week is.

Friday posts
Hello! I am going to try to post more often, because this is getting ridiculous that I never post. ( No offense to you, Sam ). So, I will try to post every Friday. YAY!
It probably won't be more than that though, because school started. I will do what I can though. Thanks!

Labyrinth Of Lies!
Hello everybody! I am so sorry I haven't posted in FOREVER!
So, A couple things new at Her Interactive.
1: They have released the cover art for Labyrinth of Lies! It is so beautiful. In my opinion, it is their best work yet.
2: Her Interactive has put the product page up for LIE!
3: Some snapshots from LIE have been released! ( at bottom of promotions page)
4: The release dates have also been revealed!

5: The soundtrack is out for you to buy, but before you do, take a look at this deal they are having!
6: Dahlia, the summer intern, had to go back to school =(
7: Little Jackalope posted this video that has all the details about LIE so far.
8: You can get the cover art for LIE as a poster!
I'm sorry, did I say a couple? I meant A LOT. Arglefumph has also been busy. a couple weeks ago, he had his live walkthrough for MED and his review. I personally haven't watched them, but when I am finished with this post, I will.
Also, today I made a binder full of Nancy Drew game guides. The ones I have, anyway. I went an looked up strategy guides at Her Interactive, but they go for $10 each! If I made up the prices, it would be $3 dollars each or 3 guides for $10.
Anyway, again,sorry for not posting. Glad I remembered to keep you updated!
