The Tower Treasure (Hardy Boys, #1)The Tower Treasure by Franklin W. Dixon

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


Since I've been reading Nancy Drew, I decided to give the Hardy Boys a go too. I actually liked them quite a lot. The writing was better in the Nancy Drew books but the story was a good one. I've read several reviews that laugh about the words and terms of the time and I found those things only served to make the book more charming. Gotta love 'fellows' especially. Oh and jalopy. I haven't heard car called jalopy since surfer movies when I was kid.

I think that though the language is a little dated, the story holds up and the message is positive. Very little real violence and the good guys always win!
