Seriously Series

Books on Bay • Savannah, GA

At Books on Bay we SERIOUSLY love series books, and we try to have as many of them in the shop as possible.

Remember curling up with a good book on a rainy day (or under the covers after you were supposed to be asleep)? What better books to curl up with than our favorite sleuths and their friends .

The Girls:

Nancy Drew

Of course we begin with Nancy Drew, the queen of teen detection, who remains at the top of lists as the most-read series book of all time.

Trixie Belden

Seeing life through 13-year-old Trixie Belden’s eyes and solving mysteries with her has been a mainstay of readers since the series began in 1948.

The Dana Girls

Cherry Ames

In 1943, nurses were needed in the US, and Cherry Ames, dedicated nurse, was born. The series begins with her student adventures and showcases her in dozens of nursing-related jobs.

Judy Bolton

The Judy Bolton series is unusual because the stories follow Judy from high school through to her marriage and beyond.

The Boys:

The Hardy Boys

Once again, we begin with the #1 series. Frank and Joe Hardy—The Hardy Boys— have been role models for boys everywhere since their debut in 1927.

Tom Swift

The Tom Swift series actually features two Tom Swifts, and each one is an inventor who has his own series: Tom Swift (Sr.) was begun in 1910 and Tom Swift Jr. was begun in 1954.

Chip Hilton

Chip Hilton – This young man excels at sports, and the books focus on his adventures as he’s playing football, basketball, and baseball.
