in case someone hasn't seen the episode or read the chapter…

So was the takedown/disarm move Nikki Heat used in the book the same takedown/disarm move Beckett used in Episode 1 of season 2? :)


Not sure.  In the book, she puts the dude on the floor in the subway, right?  In Deep in Death, she just pins him up against the counter.  Might be the same disarm move though.

I meant the  take down/disarm move in her kitchen from chapter 7, seemed like the same takedowon/disarm move as Deep in Death.

Alright, I'll admit it.  I read all seven chapters this weekend.  Hey, it's raining in Boston and I'm laying low because of rhinovirus.  What else am I gonna do?

I think I will skip over the part where I agree that this is not a best-selling author's work and get to the part where I say something a little less critical.  I think the book is kinda fun.  It's easy reading that blurs similarities between the book characters and TV characters.  As I'm reading, I'm thinking here's something I've seen on the show and wondering what parts I might see in the future.  Now, this is coming from a die-hard Castle fan who grew up in the tri-state and spent some years in New York before moving to Boston.  I watch the show.  I know NY. People who are not fans of the show or are not familiar with NY will be bored by the book because they're actually reading for the story.  That's what I think so far.  Just sayin'. Tongue out

Hmm, Amazon says it has been delivered today.  And I didn't pay for the express shipping, I think I did the free or standard shipping. 

Maybe I'll have a nice present when I get home.  That's good, since I need something new to read since I finished all the In Death books….

I have to say, Chapter 8 was pretty good, actually all the chapters except, I think, chapter 4 where they talked to the finance guy,  were pretty good.  Can't wait to get the book and finish the story.

I definitely think the writer/s settling into the role of novel writer a lot better than the earlier chapters

I haven't read any of it online yet as I've ordered the book and want to read it fresh.

Let me tell you something about crazy people. The sex is unbelievable.

It did indeed arrive today. Sat down and read a bit more beyond chapter 8 before Castle started at 10, I really like it so far. Hope there are more to come, I can see it becoming a good series on its own. And yes, the writer has settled down and "found their voice".

Lol and a month!

I got my copy of Heat Wave today Laughing The guy working there had to get some out of the back since there wasn't any on the shelves (Cry I blame the cover art lol) Anyway when he came back with a few copies he started asking about the book and show. By the end of our conversation I noticed there were about ten other customers listening about the show and book. I got a couple of them to admit they'll tune in on Monday! Score!

I went to Borders yesterday (they were out of stock), so went down the street to Barnes & Noble, they didn't have any on display.  Asked at customer service and the lady replied that they were in back.  So I replied with "but the book comes out today, shouldn't they be out on the new book release display"?  She said that it was a future display by itself.  Not sure what that meant.  But she went in back a got me a copy.  I'm almost done with it.  Very much enjoying it.  I was hoping it would be a longer read.  If you look the book up on-line it says it is 320 pages long, but my copy is only 198 pages.

So much…Castle…….so very, very much!!

I bought Heat Wave today, not because I really want to read it, mostly because the cover art makes me laugh. Laughing If you don't know what I'm talking about, you should read pages 2 & 3 of 'Season 2 Promotional Photos' in the 'In the Media' forum.  Enhancements. LOL!

It is kind of amusing isn't it – does it look as "enhanced" actually looking at the real cover?

Oh yeah.  It's just as ridiculous as it was a few weeks ago during our original discussion.  Everybody could hear me cracking up between the bookcases at Barnes & Noble today.  I smiled the whole way home. Laughing

I can totally imagine that! I should check the local bookstores and see if they're stocking Heat Wave yet.
