Y’all. This is so bad that I almost want to give it 5 stars for the sheer audacity. It surpassed even my low expectations.
It reads like the publisher sponsored a “write the next Nancy Drew mystery!” contest at a high school and this was the “winner”. The only other plausible explanation for this hot mess of a MG book is nepotism. But, hey, it checked off a reading challenge prompt so I can’t call it a total waste of the hour and a half it took me to read it.

I had never read a Nancy Drew book - I didn't realize there was an 'updated' Nancy Drew series from the 2000s, so I still kind of feel like I haven't read a Nancy Drew book. IDK what age group this targets since Nancy is in college but it is written like it is still for an elementary kid.
