why isn’t the abbreviation for secret of the old clock OLD instead of CLK

i'm really such a big fan of how the nancy drew and hardy boys ghostwriters were apparently required to end as many chapters on a cliff hanger as possible, because that just means you get shit like "nancy gasped as something flew towards her head!" and then you turn the page and it says "the piece of paper that was floating through the air hit her gently in the face"

since i made my college personal project reading every since nancy drew Main Series from start to finish in chronological order from 1930 to twenty years into the 21st century, i have the unique perspective that the changes in characters/settings/plot in the book series are actually so gradual it's impossible to say they're not a straight up evolution done year by year and bit by bit with hundreds of creative voices at the helm
so anyway if i read a comment somewhere with people saying the contemporary nancy drew books "don't feel like nancy" i'm throwing eggs at them btw

I really love the Togo/Hannah/Carson saga in CAR, too, like, this stupid dog keeps tossing his toy behind gigantic pieces of furniture and Carson is just seething quietly and then his TV gets broken and Hannah is just like oh dearrrr and basically everything falls apart when Nancy isn’t there

i'm not super active on this blog, really, but trust me when i say irl i'm still a big nancy drew fan/bearer of stratemeyer syndicate knowledge and i can also still say that this is a curse. this knowledge is a curse.
i can go to no bookstore- hunting for original manuscripts or looking for older editions of books out of print- without a bald white man with glasses approaching me and telling me, with the reserved smugness of somebody about to tell you the hottest new info of all time, about how "that's not the original book, that's the revision, they were all revised in the 1950s" and i'm like "i know, brad. why do you think i'm here". every week i see tiktok girlies posting "DID U KNOW" and in the most condescending voice telling me about blue book editions (they don't have to be blue book covers to be originals btw, just having the 25 chapters means it's the old version, a blue book is just a specific printing and is more likely to fall apart when breathed on usually) and i'm like yes, rebecca. i did know. that's why i'm here.
it's an endless Sisyphean task knowing about this cultural cornerstone that most people didn't know still exists and five or six people know too much about. it's one of the world's worst non-exclusive but wants to be exclusive club.
anyway if someone tries to charge you more than $5 for an old nancy drew/hardy boys books, kick them in the knees and go somewhere else don't let false scarcity get you

in other news, the hardy boys series hasn't had a book released for the first time in nearly 100 years because they quietly cancelled the hardy boys adventures series- hardy boys fans how you doing over there
