I loved those books growing up
- lb1lf 4y agoAs did I, my father had talked my grandfather into buying them as they were released in Norwegian in the fifties, so I had some fifty books on my shelves and read them all, some several times. I adored them, but in hindsight: Gawds, how formulaic they were. I bet with some practice, a ghostwriter could probably churn out a Hardy Boys book in a couple of days. Excellent childhood memories, though - along with Anthony Buckeridge's Jennings books, I spent more time with Hardy Boys books during rainy summers than I care admit.
