I heard a rumor that Heat Wave made it onto the NY Times Bestseller list!!! 
(I can't find an online confirmation of it yet, but it is very exciting to think it did that well!)

I dunno, just checked the list for Hardcover Fiction and it's not on there :/
It was posted Oct. 2, which was last Friday, when HW came out on Tuesday.
Maybe it's on this week's list, and the site hasn't been updated yet?
Would be pretty cool if it made the list!

I think we have to wait until this Friday to see the new list. I believe the list posted on the 2nd was for the week before Castle was released. I know when I was in a Borders store yesterday, they didn't have many left on their display or on the shelf, hope that is a good indication.

Aw, yay, I hope you're right! :)
Guess we'll have to wait for Friday and see!

I asked in a couple of local stores about Heat Wave but no trace of it, eventually one of them found it listed as being released on Oz in December – I cannot wait that long! I think I'm already going to be spoiled if Beckett talks about it in an upcoming ep because there's no way I can get it in time, even with Amazon expedited shipping it'll take a minimum of a week to get here :(

I'm sorry… that's pretty lame that you guys aren't getting it til Dec. I wonder why? Copyright/royalties issues? Either way, pretty pathetic.
I dunno, guess it's up to you if it's worth it, but if I had the extra cash I would try to get it ASAP.
It really depends on which you'd rather do:
-be semi-spoiled by the show, or
-hold off watching the show til December… which is ridiculous!
Don't think they'd put TOO much out there right away, I mean they still want people to buy it… it's only been out a week…. barely, so you've got time to get your hands on a copy.

postage is about $20 it just seems insane to pay double what the book itself is worth just for postage, no doubt I'll give in eventually

What's your address, Admin? I'll send you mine and get another one. Consider it my membership dues or penalty payment for being a .

Well I don't think that Beckett is going to be talking about it in this week's episode anyway. I believe she talks about it in episode five. If you want Admin, maybe some of us who own Heat Wave could each take some time from our schedule and type up a chapter. Then email it to you and you wouldn't have to miss out…

Coincidence that until now Richard Castle had 26 NYT bestsellers and the first Nikki Heat novel takes the 26th spot on this weeks list?

Is that a good showing?
It sounds good to me considering it's a book within a tv show by a fictional author but what do I know?

I offered to send her my book, and I wasn't kidding. I will find the funds for postage and to buy another one. However, I don't think we should be preparing and sending electronic copies to anyone.

The book is #28 on the NYTBSL this week. That's a whole lot better than I expected, given all the pre-orders were part of the first week, and they hadn't promo'd it on the show yet. I expect it will climb higher on next week's list, because of the purchasing flurry prompted by last week's episode.

Not on the show, but ABC is promoting "Heat wave" in their promo ads, you can see it at ABC's website in the Videos area.

oh, I think the whole Beckett/Castle interaction over the book during the show can be considered "promo" in the sense that it raises interest in the book. Then ABC reminds folks that the book is real, and there is burst of activity on Amazon, etc… ;)
