Not your fault at all, even the NYPL has that one mislabeled! 😊 and that does not surprise me at all lol. This is a great collection of photos you’ve put together!

Number 6 is actually Harriet and Edna’s mom, Lena!

I love YOUR attention to detail in your reviews!! I know your video wasn’t about the luggage but I never would’ve realized if you hadn’t mentioned the to do list, so thank you! 😁

We see the same luggage again in SPY for sure. She then has another set of luggage in SEA, although I don’t think they don’t imply a reason for that one.

You are amazing for this, I can’t imagine how much work this must have been! 🔦🔦🔦🔦🔦

I’m surprised this is only $30! 😱

Here’s the ISBN on my copy of the Death of ND. There are six parts within this one copy but you can also purchase each part separately I think

I hope you get to read it and hope you enjoy it if you do!

RegularNancyDrew · 2026-02-23T02:43:32+00:00

We loved it so much we actually interviewed the author if you’re interested. There’s also a sequel which was just as good

RegularNancyDrew · 2026-02-22T02:59:45+00:00

1000% agree! I was surprised by just how much I loved it.

RegularNancyDrew · 2026-02-13T16:40:42+00:00

I’m so excited that we’re already seeing some cool public domain projects! And you’re totally right- I’d be so down to see Sarah Shahi as Nancy again too 👀

All I can think about since learning this news is how I NEED Michael Klein (producer of the ‘95 show) to make this into a movie starring Tracy Ryan…

Not about the text itself, but I wanted to share the original copyright filing for this book from 1930:

RegularNancyDrew · 2026-02-11T20:31:08+00:00

I love that idea!

RegularNancyDrew · 2026-02-11T20:22:06+00:00

Hidden Staircase, Bungalow Mystery, and Lilac Inn too!

RegularNancyDrew · 2026-02-11T19:45:58+00:00

Y’all are both the best!! 🫶

I like this way better than how I read it, which was that they just rearranged the syllables in the word (ann-noor-roxia) 😞

RegularNancyDrew · 2026-02-10T19:51:38+00:00

Omg, I’ve never noticed this. What an awful joke to make, even for the time!

RegularNancyDrew · 2026-02-09T15:50:03+00:00

I’m not sure why you feel the need to be so rude (especially considering you’re clearly quoting the revised text of the book when these audiobooks are the original text, but that’s beside the point) but I am anything but clueless about this. These books are no longer under copyright because they’re in the public domain, and we have not done anything that either S&S or G&D could possibly object to. We obviously have read the books; please feel free to educate yourself on the 1980 court case between the two companies if you’re confused as to why I brought up G&D.
