The Perks of Being a Wallflower
9 people recommended this item
Description
Coming in at number 10 on the list of most frequently challenged books of 2007 is this novel composed as a series of letters written by high school freshman Charlie. Charlie's life is drama-laden and he indulges in it as only a sensitive adolescent can. There's not an issue that doesn't come up, creating lots of stuff for people to object to: language, sex, and homosexuality among them.

Point Break (Pure Adrenaline Edition)
First to recommend
5 people recommended this item
Description
I cannot possibly count the many ways in which I love the movie Point Break, but here are the top five:
1. The speech that Patrick Swayze gives the Ex-Presidents as they're all sitting around the fire, which reaches its height of brilliance at the line: "We stand for something. To those dead souls inching along the freeways in their metal coffins, we show them that the human spirit is still alive." Dude, genius!
2. The fact that one of the characters is actually named "Warchild."
3. It's one of the oh-so-rare action movies directed by a woman.
4. Cameo appearance by Anthony Kiedis of the Red Hot Chili Peppers.
5. More foxy boys per capita than practically any other movie ever made. And I love Keanu so much - then, now, always and forever.

Description
Such a lovely, lovely movie. My favorite film in Sofia Coppola's girly trilogy is probably "Lost in Translation," but I never get tired of all the gorgeous imagery of "Virgin Suicides." Great soundtrack too.

The O.C.

Description
I just arrived at my family's house for the holidays, and my 15-year-old sister has every season of "The O.C." on DVD. That means I could potentially spend about 56 hours of the next couple weeks cuddling up with Seth, Summer, Ryan, and stupid lame-o Marissa. Yay!

Achtung Baby
First to recommend
3 people recommended this item
Description
I grew up with U2, and "Achtung Baby" was probably the first album of theirs that I came to on my own (rather than through my parents' influence). This one's my favorite record of theirs 'cause it's DARK and romantic and sexy and weird. I had the hugest crush on Bono around the time of "Achtung Baby," but now I sort of regard him as the kind of vaguely hip, endearingly obnoxious uncle who you'd sneak outside with to smoke cigarettes during boring family functions (or something).

Nirvana - MTV Unplugged in New York

Description
Nirvana's Unplugged session was recorded six days after the only time I ever saw them live. I like to save this record for when it's really cold out and I can just hide under my covers and drink tea and, you know, brood.

Description
A few weeks back I watched "Singles" for the first time in long while; it's sooooo dated, but still great. While "Almost Famous" is still probably my favorite Cameron Crowe movie, this one gets serious points for nostalgia and makes me want to head up to my parents' attic when I'm home for Thanksgiving to try to dig up all my old flannel shirts. Matt Dillon's character still makes me swoon, as do the supercute cameos by Eddie Vedder.

Ritual De Lo Habitual by Jane's Addiction
First to recommend
Description
Ritual do lo Habitual is one of my favorite albums ever and probably has lots to do with why I moved to Los Angeles (for reals). I still remember the day I bought it, at some lame chain record store in the mall when I was 13 or so - the music kind of scared me but I loved it automatically. It was a drag to discover Jane's Addiction right when they were breaking up, but now I respect the hell out of them for stopping at three really great records and then calling it quits.
