May Recommendations

[mylar1]

I've decided that since I always love recommendations on movies/TV shows/books/music/fanfic/etc, I will make a monthly post and post some of my current favorites and recs and ask for some of yours. Tell me something that you love or that you think I would like, anything really.

Recommended Movie.

Peter's Friends.
The story of 6 friends who get together for a reunion after 10 years apart. Really, the only things you need to know about this one is that it has a brilliant cast (Stephen Fry, Hugh Laurie, and Emma Thompson. Seriously, how can you not watch it for the cast alone) and that it is amazing. The end.

Recommended Book

The In Death Series by JD Robb (Nora Roberts)
It's a futuristic cop series. While I like the mysteries, what has kept me coming back to the series are the characters. I have absolutely fallen in love with all of them and they are what make the series worth reading.

Recommended Music

Ministry of Rhythm
My friend's jazz fusion band that my bf does sound and lights for. Most of their stuff is instrumental, but my friend and everyone else in the group are crazy talented. They have a few songs up on their Facebook page (conveniently linked above) so go listen and tell me what you think and become a fan if you like them.

And so concludes my recommendations for the month of May. Leave yours in the comments below. :D

I agree 100% about Peter's Friends. I watched it today and didn't find anything not to love about it and the cast is phenomenal.

However, what I had actually intended to say before Stephen Fry distracted me, was that I loved how descriptive you are in your recommendations. I love the way you speak (write?) as it is, but you make it impossible for me not to want to read/watch/listen because of the way you described the movie/book/music. The book in particular sounds really interesting, that one is definitely going on my "must read soon" list.

Hee. Thanks. :)

Obviously I take a certain amount of pride about the way in which I speak and type, so those comments are very flattering. But yes, do! It's slightly difficult to get through just due to length, but I had literally zero lulls in my interest so I finished it in a couple days easily.
