Every week, The Thread checks in with booksellers around the country about their favorite books of the moment. This week, we spoke with Chris Lee of the Boswell Book Company in Milwaukee.
Lee's recommendation proves that loving books and loving TV are not mutually exclusive: He recommends "Seinfeldia" by Jennifer Keishin Armstrong.
"It's just absolutely laugh-out-loud funny. It's a great history of 'Seinfeld' from its inception all the way through to its influence over American culture," Lee said.
Even if you're not a die-hard fan, Lee said, the book still has fascinating insights into how TV shows in general are written and produced.
For Chris Lee's full recommendation, use the audio player above. If you're in the Milwaukee area on Sept. 12, Boswell Book Company is holding an event with the author of "Seinfeldia." Find full details on Boswell's website.
