Seriously the ...I can tell you loved this book. ;)<br /><br />Seriously the scene with Gwen was probably one of the stupidest. They give her a makeover and suddenly everyone loves her!? Dumb, dumb dumb. I got a new haircut and color and I did not attract hordes of people to me. Maybe because my hairdresser is not named Bess.<br /><br />I think your review was better than the book. It made me laugh. I feel more and more cycnical as I read the ND books. Maybe because I am older and things that were not obvious to me as a child get on my nerves. Like Nancy being handed the clues on a silver platter.<br /><br />I also looked up acid, particularly acid throwing, which I found on wikipedia. Although not always accurate, it did say many people apply oil to acid burns instead of washing with water to neutralize the acid, thus the oil would make the burn worse, not better.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7157530669780468545.post-16794185939762529792013-04-26T10:06:45.047-05:002013-04-26T10:06:45.047-05:00Unintentional humor heightens this book, agreed! T...Unintentional humor heightens this book, agreed! The illustrations of the cars are very poor and do not match most models at that time---in fact, the elongated front hood with a short rear deck is much more like later models, or earlier (Thunderbirds from 1955-1957). On a convertible in the 1960s and earlier, the rear window usually zips, so Nancy could have unzipped the rear window to get out. . <br /><br />This mystery is indeed silly. I really, really disliked the need to mention whose clothing the girls were wearing after the incineration of their clothes.
