Welcome to Litsy!

It‘s come to my attention that people don‘t know there is such a comprehensive book about The Wire. The interviews, which build upon one another just as the seasons did, are so insightful that they actually brought me around on season 2. I listened to audio with very talented voice actors who sounded exactly like their real life counterparts, and it was so great I bought a hard copy just to have. Let it enhance your rewatch like it has for me! ❤️

#nonfiction2019. This one is for something on my TBR pile over a year.

Excellent for true fans of “The Wire”. ❤️#nonfiction2019 #mountTBR

I have had this for at least two years and I‘m going to read it this week. My favorite show is The Wire, and this is a collection of interviews of all the members of cast and crew. If you‘ve never seen The Wire, it was written as a book, each episode like a chapter. Truly an amazing series. #nonfiction2019

This is still on my tbr but comes highly recommended from my friend @FreeReadAndWrite My favorite character from the show is Omar ❤, masterfully played by Michael K. Williams. I'm hoping to read it this year and then rewatch the whole series.

(Loose interpretation of #omarsharif, I know, but the best I could do!)

Thanks for a super fun photo challenge @Cinfhen and @vivastory 😁

‘All the Pieces Matter‘ - & they so do. A lightening fast read, informative & entertaining, & delightful, a worthy oral history of the making of surely TV‘s best ever drama & finest collaborative writing. The Definitive TV Novel!

An oral history of The Wire? Wheel, meet house.

Any book that makes you want to go back a re-watch the series it chronicles deserves ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.

This book is really making me want to do a series re-watch.

ANDRE ROYO (REGINALD “BUBBLES” COUSINS): If you say you like The Wire, that means you like reading books. That means you give a fuck about the human race. It made you feel like you bettered yourself in the crowd when you say, “My favorite show is The Wire.” All of a sudden, people look at you differently. It became a badge of honor to tell somebody, “Did you hear about The Wire? You got to watch The Wire.”

Thanks to the library I'm reading this oral history of The Wire, one of the best television series of all time.

"Once you finish and you get to that last episode, you can't say, 'I don't know,' anymore- Andre Royo

A must for fans of The Wire.

I'm going in soon. Finishing some curtains then reading all night.

I just got book mail!!!! Yay me!

I‘m so excited! This is available for preorder and I pulled the trigger. The Wire is the most brilliant writing ever and changed all@those series that came after. Written by novelists, it showed. Life will stop when this hits my mailbox! 😄

I'm almost finished watching The Wire and I got this awesome Galley waiting for me as soon as I finish. I love this show so much, it's definitely one of my favorites up there with The West Wing and The Sopranos!
