At present, many of the Nancy Drew and/or Hardy Boys books have their own articles, though these articles consist only of primary references and plot summaries. I have not been able to find book reviews or any individual coverage of most of these books. This book (and those batched below) are part of the Nancy Drew and Hardy Boys Super Mystery series. I recommend redirecting all there. Significa liberdade (she/her) (talk) 14:01, 26 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment I feel this may be a WP:TRAINWRECK. A few of these books are definitely notable. This is too many to evaluate at once. Unless we want to go with the series-first approach we discussed at NBOOK earlier this year, which, fair, so I'm not going to vote keep yet (funnily enough someone else just voted the exact opposite kind of thing for deletion).

• Procedural keep: I did a search for the first two books in this list: "Double Crossing" and "A Crime for Christmas". For "Double Crossing", I quickly came across at least 2 reviews (Evening Express, Philadelphia Daily News). For "A Crime for Christmas", I found another two reviews (The Daily Herald, Tulsa World). Based on these results, I am not confident that an in-depth-enough BEFORE has been conducted for each of these books to delete 30+ articles at once. C F A 💬 21:51, 26 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
