Search - Mr. Monk Goes to the Firehouse (Monk, Bk 1)

This was an ok book but being a fan of the show is wasnt what I expected. It was narrated by Natalie, Monks assistant but the narrator didnt sound like her at all. Other than some of my favorite characters being the stars this was just another mystery. It gets a 3 out of 5

If you enjoy the TV series, you will enjoy this book. The author is fairly true to all the characters and gives the same feel as the TV series. Mr. Monk is a rare character and this book finds him having to move in with his assistant and her daughter. What is a germ-o-phobe to do?
In the midst of all this, 2 very different murders occur, there is no way they could be related or are they?

A fast easy read.

Fan of the USA TV show "Monk"? This book reads like an episode from the show. This book is from Natalie's perspective. The humor is there, and will just make you out right laugh. Easy read, be sure to pass it on to other Monk fans after you read it! This edition is the paperback first printing January 2006. And you thought she was jsut a sweet litle ole lady next door.....

Surprisingly not as good as Monk the TV series, but definately comical.
The novel was fairly predictable and the author has an immature writing style.
Quick and easy read.

Good plot. I think it is a slight variation of two of the TV episodes. Definitely a must read for Monk fans.

This book was a lot of fun to read. I like the lighthearted point of view of the character. I would recommend this book to anyone that enjoyed the tv show or even anyone that hasn't. I feel as if I know these people and often felt as if i was right there when things were happening.
