Popsugar Entertainment Shoppable Shop The Adventures of Mary-Kate and Ashley Mystery Books Take a Trip Back in Time With These 10 Adventures of Mary-Kate and Ashley Books 14 May 2020 by Chanel Vargas Image Source: Amazon As POPSUGAR editors, we independently select and write about stuff we love and think you'll like too.

As a kid who grew up watching Wishbone, Scooby-Doo, and reading the entire Nancy Drew catalogue, I pretty much soaked up any mystery I could get my hands on. That includes all 10 of the The Adventures of Mary-Kate and Ashley books. Based off of the musical video series of the same name, the books are packed with '90s references and are like a trip back in time. Decked out in full trenchcoats, '40s detective hats, and matching sunglasses, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen grace the cover of each story ready to take on volcanoes, ghosts, UFOs, and, of course, space camp. From eerie haunted houses to spooky cruise ships, there was nowhere these elementary school-aged sleuths would go that I wouldn't follow. Even as a third grader, I remember checking these out from the school library and holding onto them for as long as I could before I needed to return them. True fans will also know that, following the original 10 copies, the series continued on with almost 50 issues of The New Adventures of Mary-Kate and Ashley, which sees a slightly older Mary-Kate and Ashley solving mysteries and maintaining busy social lives. If you're familiar with Mary-Kate and Ashley's extensive list of films, I highly recommend giving these a quick read. See the action-packed books for yourself ahead and hold onto your library cards because the nostalgia is about to hit hard.
