Mystery of the Lilac Inn by Carolyn Keene, 200 pages
Is the Lilac Inn jinxed? There are missing diamonds, stolen tools, and possibly even a ghost. Only Nancy Drew can solve this, if the case doesn't kill her first!
As a child, I found my mother's cache of Nancy Drew books in my grandmother's basement and read every one she had. Partial credit to Ms. Drew for whetting my mystery appetite early. As I am revisiting my childhood faves, I had to include this series. Admittedly, many social aspects of the books have aged poorly, so maybe my enjoyment is rooted purely in nostalgia.
