Grey's Anatomy: Notes from the Nurse's Station and Overheard at the Emerald City Bar [Bargain Price] [Paperback]

Stacy McKee (Author), Chris Van Dusen (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: September 12, 2006

A sexy, high-concept, behind-the-scenes peek at the lives and loves of Seattle Grace’s most popular doctors . . .

On ABC’s mega-hit Grey’s Anatomy, when surgical interns Meredith, Cristina, Izzie, George, and Alex (not to mention neurosurgeon Derek, aka Dr. McDreamy) aren’t putting in long hours at Seattle Grace Hospital, they’re flirting, gossiping, and drowning their sorrows at the Emerald City Bar. In one location, Nurse Debbie sees it all; in the other, Joe the bartender hears it all . . .

Grey’s Anatomy is styled as two books in one -- read from one side to get Debbie’s hospital scuttlebutt, and from the other for Joe’s alcohol-fueled tidbits. Notes from the Nurse’s Station and Overheard at the Emerald City Bar are packed with new information on pivotal events. This is the book the show’s millions of fans can’t wait to read.

This is an interesting concept for a book, and if you are a huge Grey's Anatomy fanatic I'm sure you'll like it. But it's a little redundant because the two halves cover essentially the same things, just from different perspecitive. And if you've *just* rewatched Grey's as I had before reading it, it might not be that entertaining either... of course, conversly, if you haven't seen Grey's in a while, a lot of the little jokes in the book might not make sense. I think it honestly works best as the website/blog that they have it running as now, where you can read the thoughts of 'Joe' and 'Debbie' in a more current format as you watch the show.

But by all means buy the book if you love Grey's as I do, because I did enjoy it.

If you are Grey's Anatomy fan, this is a must-have book. Even though the book covers only Season 1 & 2, it was still so fun to read! As you read through Nurse Debbie and Joe's entries, you relive all the exciting episodes of the first two seasons. In some ways, you get to know the characters more through reading about them than you do watching the series. Very entertaining and insightful -- pure mindless fun! I have passed this book on to my friends, and each one has come back with the same enthusiastic review. They loved it as much as I did!

I love the show, but if you have seen it you have no further need to read the book. It was boring and very simply written.
