The first Hardy Boys book that I ever read was the 1959 The Tower Treasure from the flashlight Original series.  And I first got that book on Tuesday, March 15, 1994.  I didn't read my first Casefiles till March 1995 when I borrowed Cold Sweat from the Chalk River Public Library.

The first series I read was the Blue Spines. My father had a bunch that he gave me. The first book I read was While the Clock Ticked, because I thought the cover art looked cool. I was only 4 at the time. I learned how to read on Bernstein Bears, Little Monsters, and Hardy Boys.

I guess you read the revised text of While The Clock Ticked first?  Or was it the original text?

And does anyone remember what their Second Hardy Boys book that they ever read was?  For me, it was The Melted Coins (1944).

I started at #1 The Tower Treasure and kept in order till after #15 somewhere, then read what ever I could find at used book shops.

My first one was Digest Panic on Gull Island. I think my second as The Flickering Torch.

My first was the revised text of The Hardy Boys #2 ''The House on the Cliff''. I read about 20 more revised originals before I read any other Hardy Boys book.

When I first heard that Iola was killed in the ''Dead on Target'', I was so shocked I told myself I would never read a Casefile...but within a few months, a bit bored at a friend's house, I picked a copy of Casefiles #6 ''The Crowning Terror''. I ended up reading the first few chapters, and later burrowed the book from another friend, and have been a Casefiles fan ever since.

For me, with the Casefiles, my mom didn't want me to be reading books with the word "Dead" in the title. So, finally she allowed me to check out Cold Sweat from the Chalk River library, and that was quickly followed by the Operation Phoenix Trilogy from the Keys School Library in Deep River.
