Just started Darkly Dreaming Dexter....
And so far it is EXACTLY like season 1 of dexter.... If you read it, can you tell me if I am in for anything different? Any deviations from the show?

Re: Just started Darkly Dreaming Dexter....
I haven't read it, but I've heard that after book 1 it deviates from the show. Not sure if you've read the Sookie books and seen True Blood, but a lot like that. They'll sometimes stick to the bare bones storylines or keep similar characters but the stories are really different.
How do you like it compared to the show? I've had it on my to read list forever but I just wasn't sure about it.

it's different. A major character dies in this book who is currently still alive on the show.
I've only read the first book and it was a long time ago, so other than that I don't remember

I'm glad the books are different from the show. It's a totally new experience.

Yes the books start to differentiate immensely, especially with the "bad guys" each season/book.

I enjoyed it.... I started Matched so I'm going to finish that before I get back to the rest of the series.

I read the first 3 books before the series even came out and thought they were much more graphic in describing his kill scenes than the show is
