5.0 out of 5 stars Nancy goes to look into 1 thing and finds another.
This book is wonderful. It has two mysteries in one. It's one of the best I've read. It has a great plot, and it neatly draws it together at the end. It kept me in suspense and it was difficult to put away. And if you enjoy this one, I suggest you read Clue in the Diary ,too.

This review is from: The Secret of Mirror Bay (Nancy Drew Mystery Stories, No 49) (Hardcover)
Nancy, Bess and George are invited by Aunt Eloise to stay at a cabin on Mirror Bay near Cooperstown, N.Y. where there have been recent sightings of a woman gliding on the water of the bay. Nancy sets out to investigate the mysterious woman, but soon is faced with numerous other mysteries, including a vacation scam perpetrated by a woman who bears a resemblance to Nancy; the search for an old carriage, sealed in a box and sunk in the bay many years ago; and a strange green-glowing wizard that lives on a nearby mountain. This wasn't a bad book and it is easily one of the better books from #35 up (most of which are garbage). Nancy has many mysteries to solve and they are fairly interesting. The book has a not bad amount of action and it isn't as poorly written as some of the other books put out at that time. One thing that I didn't care for with this book, was that Nancy resembled the woman involved in the vacation scam. This is a tired plot device that has been featured more than once in this series. Generally, I did enjoy this book; it wasn't one of the most exciting books I've ever read, but I would recommend reading it.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of my favorites in this series, July 13, 2006
This review is from: The Secret of Mirror Bay (Nancy Drew Mystery Stories, No 49) (Hardcover)
I'm a collector of Nancy Drew mysteries and this is one of my favorites. The idea of the grieving royal family burying their dead child's favorite toys in a lake is a sad and intriguing plot and the circumstances under which Nancy solves the case make for a great read. I love the original ND series, but even I think that some of them are better than others, and this is one of the better ones.

This thrilling Nancy Drew book has adventure and 2 mysteries. It takes place in New York at Mirror Bay. One is that someone is looking for an old child's stage coach.

A glowing green man had been spotted by several people on the mountain side moving mysteriously through the woods. Nancy suddenly gets trapped and is prisoner in an underground room.

This review is from: The Secret of Mirror Bay (Nancy Drew Mystery Stories, No 49) (Hardcover)
This book at first was interesting, but I didn't like it at all toward the end. I suggest Nancy Drew and the Clue of the Whistling bagpipes. It is one of my favorite books!

A Kid's Review
This review is from: The Secret of Mirror Bay (Nancy Drew Mystery Stories, No 49) (Hardcover)
This book is very suspenseful. It makes you want to keep reading, also there is a good plot, and it is well written. If you like this book read other "Nancy Drew" books, written by Carolyn Keene. I really liked this book, actually, I loved reading it.
