Michael's Book Babble

I'm an indie author and a scribbler of inane babble. I talk about books I've read/liked. Or at least, that's the plan.

 

Most of the reviews will be considered "mini-reviews." Usually, it's mostly my reaction to what I've been reading. There are people who are far better at doing full and helpful reviews. But I still have fun doing them, and hope you enjoy them!

A must-read, especially for fans of THE WIRE

Homicide: A Year on the Killing Streets - David Simon

David Simon's Homicide is an extremely riviting read. It's up there as one of my favorite non-fiction reads. I was familiar with Simon's work with The Wire, and it was cool to read some scenes and dialogue that I recognized from the show. Like with other non-fiction books I dig, this one reads a lot like a novel. It's a very quick and easy read. Even if you've never seen The Wire, I still think it's worth checking out.
