This came in good shape and my grand children enjoyed them very much. They came new, never used

I purchased these books for my great niece for Christmas so I can't rate them accurately except to say my sister collected the entire set when we were kids and she treasured them. Unfortunately, her collection was lost after her death so I'm going to try to interest her granddaughter if I can.

My order was sent and received quickly. I was delighted when I saw the set. It was all I had hoped it would be since it is a Christmas gift. I am totally satisfied.

Considering that the Nancy Drew series is 78 years old, I would say that it has stood the test of time. If you're not into the original series from 1930-1979 (56 books in all), there have been many updates and additional series spawned from this character. You may think old when you see these books, but the stories are great, there's always a little edge of danger, cliffhangers on each chapter and it shows young ladies a strong, independent character with drive and smarts. Plus, there's just a great vibe you get from handling the slim hardcover novels and looking the painted illustrations on the cover.

I was surprised at how bad the writing in these books was. The very first book in particular was extremely poorly-written and would not be published today. I'm sure it was groundbreaking at the time, but there are honestly far better choices for children's books these days.
