I'm reading The Nancy Drew Files, a mystery book my young friend loaned me, and I'm really enjoying it. The case #124 is titled 'Crime at the Chat Cafe' and it's really good.
One of the characters name is Andy. It's about a Spanish young lady, Lydia Rojas, opening a 'Chat Cafe' in California. Nancy and her cousin George are so neat and 'lista'(spanish) for 'bright-minded & alert' to their surroundings and what needs to be done. The story begins with the 'grand opening' of the 'Chat Cafe' with tee-shirts and balloons.
The girls are always investigating someone, somewhere and something, all at once. Nancy goes in a storage room and gets knocked out. She drives a cool car and dresses very stylishly, that's my kind of detective. Her locket goes missing and her car breaks down, yikes, always a mishap. When her cousin comes up with a clue, Nancy says: 'Only a theory, nothing substantial'.
Nancy has good common sense and she's a good listener. She jumps out of bed in the morning and quickly gets ready for whatever may come her way. Always checking the messages on her answering machine, while packing and getting ready for her next great adventure. She works well with everyone, and is quick to congratulate a job well done.
We should all learn good lessons from reading about young ladies like Nancy Drew. She's a good example of circumspection, being aware of what's going on around her. I love the cute quotes and sharp replies, not rude, but wise and full of humor. They really make you think and test your skills, in trying to solve the mystery with Nancy and the girls.
Remember: Don't be blue, get a clue and always carry a flashlight...
Enjoy: Relaxing and reading a 'good' mystery...
