Ambient 1: Music for Airports

There is nothing more perfect to spend a quiet afternoon reading to.

Consuming "Nicholas and Alexandra"

Nicholas and Alexandra

by Franklin J. Schaffner

Why I recommend "Greek Society"

nobody@allconsuming.net (sarah) — Fri, 02 Oct 2009 20:31:18 GMT

Greek Society

by Frank J. Frost

It’s easy to roll your eyes at assigned books in school, but this one was really worth reading. Not only was it un-intimidating and well-written (the author is hilarious but not obnoxious or obvious), but it also made me feel a great respect for the resilience and accomplishments of the Greek people.

Pick it up even if you’re not a History major! You’ll enjoy it.

by Nicholas V. Riasanovsky

A story about "Thriller"

nobody@allconsuming.net (sarah) — Fri, 24 Jul 2009 21:48:42 GMT

Thriller

by Michael Jackson

This is the best pop album of the 80s, hands down, no contest.

Consumed "Arrested Development - Season One"

How "The Awakening" changed my life

nobody@allconsuming.net (sarah) — Thu, 19 Mar 2009 16:16:39 GMT

The Awakening

by Kate Chopin

This book finally made me take a hard look at whether or not I am the typical woman who wants children.

It turns out I’m not.

Why I recommend "The 5,000 Fingers of Dr. T"

nobody@allconsuming.net (sarah) — Mon, 17 Mar 2008 13:33:46 GMT

The 5,000 Fingers of Dr. T

by Roy Rowland

If you want to horrify your friends or disturb your children show them this film. They will be scarred for life. I certainly am. My initial viewing of this prompted me to immediately purchase it online so I could torture more unsuspecting souls with it.

Have a blast!

Why I recommend "The Passenger"

nobody@allconsuming.net (sarah) — Sat, 06 Oct 2007 04:05:57 GMT

The Passenger

by Michelangelo Antonioni

An absolutely beautiful and poignant film.

Not very well written (rated 2 stars)

License to Carry a Gun: Poems (Big tables series of younger poets)

by Andrei Codrescu

I thought this was overtly sexual and not that good. I understand trying to offend to make a point… but I think it has to be backed up by talent.

Thank you, 1970. You were some year. Man.

Nice try, Blitz! (rated 4 stars)

Rocket Science

by Jeffrey Blitz

I enjoyed this movie, even though it seemed like a Wes-Anderson-hopeful film. Maybe because it seemed like that. A little scattershot, but much better than the normal crap that comes out in theaters.

A review of "When I Was Five I Killed Myself. (Lernmaterialien)" (rated 5 stars)

When I Was Five I Killed Myself. (Lernmaterialien)

by Howard Buten

This book changed the way that I think, speak, and write. I love it and have read it many times and will continue to do so.

Amazing (rated 5 stars)

La Doublure (Original French Version with English Subtitles)

It was the most American French movie I have ever seen in my life.

A review of "Miss One Thousand Spring Blossoms" (rated 5 stars)

nobody@allconsuming.net (sarah) — Tue, 10 Jul 2007 02:54:27 GMT

Miss One Thousand Spring Blossoms

by John Ball

Beautifully written. I have to read this every few years because it’s just that great.

Why I recommend "Hypnotism: A History"

nobody@allconsuming.net (sarah) — Mon, 09 Jul 2007 17:28:50 GMT

Hypnotism: A History

by Derek Forrest

Not only will you know every single thing about hypnotism and how it came into existence, the style in which the book is written is riveting and page-turning. Definitely worth it.

A big waste of my time.

Apocalypto

by Mel Gibson

I felt like I was watching Married with Children/Braveheart set in Mayan culture. This was one of the ridiculous movies I’ve seen in the last year.

Why I recommend "UGLY AMERICAN"

nobody@allconsuming.net (sarah) — Mon, 28 Aug 2006 02:36:02 GMT

UGLY AMERICAN

by LEDERER / BURDICK

This is a FANTASTIC book, and reminds me why I used to read nothing but prison/adventure/political fiction from the 50s and 60s. Nothing on the market today can compete with this.
