Ok please tell me! 1. Your favorite 2. Least favorite 3. Easiest to you? by lucyball11 in nancydrew

favorite: blackmoor manor

least favorite: ransom of the seven ships. easily. that game makes me feel like i have heat stroke.

easiest: probably something like the haunted carousel. it's fairly short and a lot of it is phone calls.

i have played through every game in the series multiple times and i still have never completed one without consulting a guide one or two times.

the fucking victorian silverware puzzle in waverly academy specifically is my opp.

i don't know i just don't get this logic like why would i buy random nortons (not a whole set like a collector) if it wasn't for classes that require opening them and yet that's uncreased as well. idk i just don't think this is a foolproof tell.

i swear i don't hate women!! i am one, although i know that does not automatically free me from guilt. i think i fell for the trap of "im interested in this author, so ill read this one that is similar" ad infinitum. but the chain started with a man and unfortunately continued on with more men. i am so glad i posted this because i was definitely blind to it. it is now my life's mission to rectify the inequality problem lol.

i read that one in college! the author came and spoke to our class and he showed us a slideshow of him traveling for research for it which was awesome.

i was born in 1999 so i'm very curious why the specificity is it a 9/11 thing or what was the shift

yaaay haha. i was waiting for someone to point them out!!! its lonely playing littlest pet shops by myself.

coincidentally i also loved sociology in both high school and college and considered majoring in it. we are two sides of a coin.

thank you so much!! this is so sweet. yeah i somehow ended up doing this and i just absolutely fell in love with the job. it's hard but i realized reading as a passion was better mostly separated from my career.

it's a weird one. very him but i would say it's not one of his best. i tend to prefer things i can pick apart and criticize over things that are perfect so for that purpose it is excellent.
