[QUOTE="OneMoreChapter, post: 360, member: 34"] That's a great point. I don't think I'd usually be interested in tie-in novels (have never read the LOST ones for example and they do not look good) and would probably view most as kind of cheap - but in this case, Frost is not only an established novelist himself but he's also the co-creator/co-writer so I think if he produced a third person Twin Peaks novel, it would be amazing and immersive and wouldn't feel like those tie-in novels of other TV shows written by writers we either haven't heard of before or didn't originally create/write for the characters. I agree with your point in general - and usually prefer the TV shows or movies I like to be kept separate from novelizations/tie-in books but I think it would be much different given who Frost is. Anyway, I just had it hyped up so much in my mind that it was going to be Frost novel AND a Twin Peaks novel - it just seemed amazing to me that when I heard it was epistolary it just disappointed me. Then again, I'd also hyped up a series with EVERY episode directed by Lynch (and co-written by Frost), thinking it would be like my 5 favourite episodes of the OG series (Pilot, 2, 9, 14, and 29) and it was ... not. (But that's another discussion for another thread.) I guess my disappointment with The Return (though I liked much of it, especially Parts 1 - 4 and 16, 17, 18) in general might have put me off trying to give the Frost books another chance, along with that initial block I got to their style. But they'll remain in my TBR pile - maybe one day. p.s. I never got into The Secret Diary much either. I did like it and enjoyed some sections - I want to listen to the audio version read by Sheryl Lee one day. That sounds great. I think I did enjoy My Life, My Tapes (can't remember if I read it all now or just sections but I remember liking it) even if was a bit cheesy. [/QUOTE]
