Whelp folks, we loved this weird eyeball book! Nancy has competition in the sleuthing space, Carson's got an unrequested new workplace boo, Nancy subverts her jealousy into soil samples, Ned is 'napped again, we have a legit psycho killer (insert song here), and most importantly, the boyfriend bracket is BACK! This book is not brought to us by eyeballs or vision-related stuff, Karen is crocheting inventory, Kelly is enjoying festival season, and we read mail from Juelia!

It's book #50 - - time to celebrate our half-tennial! But before talking about Nancy Drew & The Double Jinx Mystery, Karen wants to be a psychic as anxiety treatment, Kelly wants the Goldilocks amount of information, and we need your super sleuth recs! Also, Karen has amazing personal banter (check out her crochet skills @NevermoreKnots), and Kelly is in the midst of autumnal joy. We learn about the etymology of the word "jinx", Nancy hunts down Slick Fingers O'Mayley with to her clever forensic artistry skills, Merv Marvel is a Joker-style leaper, there's a Robin Cook style outbreak, there's a last-minute barn cult, and Nancy can identify a land mine at a great distance with high accuracy.

Whelp, I guess it’s time to discuss Nancy Drew & the Secret of Mirror Bay. If we have to. First, would you rather have a treehouse lair or a bunker? We get an email from Dr. Quicksand! Karen is in a season of tears, and Kelly has a bucket of margs. Flashlight arms returns, George uses judo early and often, Mansplainer Matt makes his entrance, and has anyone ever heard of a cola stop?
