Peace Be Upon You...
Hi...
Well, lately I'm not really in
blogging anymore *sigh* I feel like a traitor...Haha... Still, I love this blog
very much... Anyway, you can hear often from me if you follow me on IG @kinayasnain..
Now, back to my boring
interesting review…
Since my brother introduce me with
young sleuth, Nancy Drew and her special friend, Ned Nickerson, I couldn’t stop
for searching this books more and more…
Since I was 12, [maybe younger than
that? I don’t remember *slap my face* :p] I started to read investigation and
murder theme stories. I don’t know why I love this type of genre, but one thing
I know is that my brother made an important role in this case of mine.
The first investigation book that I’ve
read is ‘Tantei Gakuen Q’ [Detective School Q] by Fumiya Sato.
[Actually, it’s not really a book, because it’s a comic book.]
Second one is still a comic titled ‘Kindaichi Shonen No Jikembo’ [in Malay
it’s called ‘Penyiasat Remaja Hajime
Kindaichi’ and I’m not sure about the English title.]
In my opinion, both of this comics
book have the same core. –Young detective, look like have a little bit lack but
genius, have a murderer, great enemies and so on.
Hmm, this entry looks like I want to
compare some books. Oh, sorry. I’m not intended to do that. Ok, back to the
Nancy Drew Stories.
If you aware about my past blog
post, you will know that before this I have talk about 3 books regarding Nancy
Drew Stories. That’s my brother old books.
Recently, when I’m wandering and
lost myself in bookstore on my nearest town, I’ve found that gorgeous and
noticeable mystery books. To tell you the truth, I really scream inside my
head. IT’S NANCY DREW!! OMG…OMG…I’VE
FOUND THAT LEGENDARY BOOKS. Nancy drew!! [haha..it’s not exactly in English
though because I’m a Malay ^_^]
It’s a miracle enough when my
brother agreed to buy me 2 books of Nancy Drew Mystery Stories. And that is
what I want to talk about.
The title of these 2 books is ‘THE CLUE IN THE CRUMBLING WALL’ and ‘THE CROOKED BANISTER’.
Ok, let me talk about THE CLUE IN
THE CRUMBLING WALL first.
Author
: Carolyn Keene
Publisher
: Grosset & Dunlap
Synopsis
:
When Nancy is asked to find a
professional dancer who disappeared several years before, the young detective
becomes involved in a mystery reaching far beyond a missing-person’s case.
Clues lead to a huge estate which
the dancer is to inherit if she can claim it in time. During Nancy’s
investigation at Heath Castle, she and her friends Bess Marvin and George Fayne
realize that its crumbling wall contain a secret, but what is it? And who are
their enemies that try to foil their every attempt to unravel the intricate
puzzle?
Danger lurks in a castle tower and
throughout the vine-tangled grounds of the estate. The girls’ gripping
adventures culminate in a dramatic climax when Nancy exposes a sinister plot to
defraud the dancer of her inheritance.
My
Special Review :
1. Nancy
once again met with another obstacle. That is a Nancy’s specialty. For me,
I love all Nancy’s journey. In this
case, from River Height to Heath Castle.
2. I
like how the author added the ‘special friend’, Ned Nickerson character into this
story. Not much but still have an important role to help Nancy discover the
truth. Despite of Nancy’s busy schedule to investigate the mystery, she still
has a loving moment with her special friend. – Aw, so sweet~~~
3. The
idea about Cinderella shoes print is a great idea.
4. Oh
yes, I forgot about ‘Salty’ character. Salty is an old friend of Nancy. He is a
former sailor. I interested with his slang. –Maybe because I’m not a native
speaker of English, so it is a little bit difficult for me to read. [Difficult?
Haha…It’s sound like I’m a beginner…Maybe?]
5. Overall,
Nice book [1000x]… - [See? That’s how I evaluate what I read. With a number!Haha…]
-END OF MY REVIEW-
Sometimes, I thought I have too much
book to read. There have more and more books out there waiting for me.
But, like the other says ‘There’s no
TOO MUCH BOOKS, Just DON’T HAVE ENOUGH SPACE AND TIME TO SPEND.’
I agree with this statement…After
all, I AM A BOOKS LOVER. Especially Detective and murderer one… ^_^
Allright! Till next review…
See you guys again later!
Bye…
