BSC + Minneapolis = love
It's been about three months since I began my quest to read every single BSC book in order. Instead of reading them all in one weekend, I've been taking my sweet time. I don't know what I was thinking; there's no way I could do nothing but read these books nonstop for three days. The later books are horrible!
Tonight I got to Super Special #14, BSC in the USA, wherein the club members go on a cross-country road trip. My ritual for reading Super Specials is to begin by looking through the book at all the pictures, and when I did that for this book, I saw Mary Anne and an older woman sitting on a carnival type ride. Using my AMAZING powers of deduction, I reasoned that the woman next to her must be her grandmother, who lives in Iowa. And on the page next to that picture was the word "mall." A mall near Iowa with rides in it?
THE BSC GOES TO MINNEAPOLIS! It looks like they only stop off at the Metrodome and the Mall of America, which is not what I would portray to young readers if I was going to write about Minneapolis, but still... How did I not know about this before??
I'm so psyched to start reading.

I don't like the later books as much as the earlier books. On the other hand, I've read the earlier books so many times that I practically have them memorized, so the later books are more of a "treat" in terms of being newer in content.
