I am going to be reading Nancy Drew Complete Series Set soon and I think everyone should read them. There are 64 books and you may think that is a lot, but if you enjoy reading as much as I enjoy reading then you'd understand that 64 books that are not extremely long are good. If you are planning to read this or reading it now or have already read it or a few of them then leave me your honest opinion and review on these books. Thank you!

I read these growing up and look back on them fondly as an important part of my childhood.The stories kept me interested and I am attempting to collect the editions I read back then.
In every Nancy Drew mystery, the following things are bound to occur:• Nancy gets trapped somewhere.
• Nancy gets tied up and/or gagged.
• Nancy’s father goes away on a business trip,
and is never available when Nancy needs him.
• Bess Marvin, Nancy’s friend is forced into
dangerous situations for which Nancy is
responsible, but Nancy ignores her friend’s
fear, thus getting them into worse
situations.
• Bess also mentions that she is hungry at
least twice in every chapter. Perhaps she
needs new friends, instead of more food.
• George Fayne, Bess’ cousin, and Nancy’s other
friend, is a closet lesbian, but the
publishers can’t write this, so they give her
Burt Eddleton, college boy, as a beard.
• Nancy’s car is stolen, or wrecked.
• Nancy ignores authority, and always goes
where she is told not to go.
• Nancy, George and Bess never seem to have to
go to school or work at jobs.
• Nancy Drew has been 18 for at least 80 years!
