Evaluation Out Of Books Heat Wave (Nikki Heat #1)

I'm a big fan of the TV show from day one. I hadn't even known at the time that they were planning on putting out books by 'Richard Castle' based on his time spent and research with the 12th Precinct. I'm glad I decided to check it out.From the peer blurbs on the front cover and inside jacket, to the press photo of 'Richard Castle' on the back, to the dedication in the very beginning, the novel feels very authentic. As if Richard Castle on TV were a real author and used his adventures in his

If you aren't aware, there exists a television show called Castle, currently in its second season on ABC. The premise of the show is that a famous and successful author of crime/thriller novels has used his connections and charm to be allowed to "ride along" with New York City homicide detectives as research for a book with a homicide detective main character. The premise of the book (Heat Wave) is that it is the novel that the fictional novelist wrote, based on his experiences in the first

This was a quick one.Audiobook edition, as usual, but still only around 6 hours.I skipped the book a few times when its turn came to read it, and pushed it down the queue.As it turned out, undeservingly so. <- This should be a verb :-)I guess no one actually expects this to be a masterpiece, and they would be right. It's not. But it is still a very good read. Exactly as interesting/funny as the TV show.If you liked Castle [IMDB] you're going to like this book, too.If not - Hey, guess what not

Four stars for one reason alone - I love the plot of the TV series more than that of the book. But I'll definetely be onto the next book like... today, actually XDThe first installment of the Nikki Heat series is dynamic and catching, realistic to the point of seeming based on real events and convoluted enough to keep the reader wondering who's the real bad guy to the very last chapter. I found the characters unique and intriguing, the settings - well-described, and the detective work quite up

(B+) 76% | GoodNotes: Fun but disposable. It's got all the bones of a good detective story, but with characters in need of further fleshing out.

I tried again, harder this time. Still didn't get that far, only 28%.It's not a bad book, really. Just not something I normally read or enjoy. But objectively speaking, it has its charms. It's kind of funny and kind of cute if you like the bumbling amateur PI vs. tough real cop dynamic. I'm not a big fan of detective fiction (unless it's SFF), so this is not doing much for me, but I can see mystery fans enjoying this book as a fun popcorn read.* * * * *DNF @ 20%. I tried, though not very hard,

Incredible mystery this is not. BUT. It is an actual book written by the fictional author Richard Castle (Nathan Fillion), from the ABC show Castle. I love this show. In it, Castle uses his wealth, popularity and connections to get an indefinite ride-along with Detective Kate Beckett (Stana Katic), who pretends to hate this. Love the cast, love the chemistry, love the dialogue, and I love my cop shows. This is a win all around for me. During the course of the show, Castle starts using Beckett as
