Duff McKagan recommended Led Zeppelin III by Led Zeppelin in Music (curated)

 
Led Zeppelin III by Led Zeppelin
Led Zeppelin III by Led Zeppelin
1970 | Metal, Rock
9.0 (1 Ratings)
Album Favorite

"Immigrant Song really kicked my ass. Every part of it. I couldn't play along with it - I was only 10 – but I could sing along with the 'Ah-ah-aaaaah-ah!' part. Every Led Zeppelin record had an impact on me, but Led Zeppelin III probably affected my thoughts on music the most."

I liked some aspects of this; the detective by night; the relationship with the lawyer. But there were some things I didn't like; her husband and his behaviour; the mundane bits when she was just thinking strange thoughts.

>I just wasn't pulled into the story. I didn't devour it like I do some books.

I loved this book sooo much. Again like the first book I didnt want to put it down.
Thoughts:
I love the Weasleys so much more than I thought I did.
The Dursleys are even worse than the first book.
The whole execution of Tom Riddles diary was so much better than the movie!

I think a quote from the book would best describe how I feel about it.

"In expert words, manipulated deftly, they take you prisoner. Wind themselves round your limbs like spider silk, and when you are so enthralled you cannot move, they pierce your skin, enter your blood, numb your thoughts. Inside you they work their magic."

Movie Favorite

"Not so much a film about tragic loss as one about obsession. Intense, disturbing, and affecting. A film not easily forgotten. I’m not sure I actually liked any of the characters—but I felt for them. I thought about The Vanishing for days after watching it. It still creeps into my thoughts when I least expect it."

Movie Favorite

"Intense soundtracks can feel intrusive and distracting, but these feel like perfect uses of (nice ‘n’ loud!) familiar songs in film. I’m so moved to happiness by the way the characters’ boiling-over thoughts, hopes, and dreams seem to be broadcast out of their internal lives and into this remarkable world created by Wong Kar-wai."

The protagonist of this novella is Jonathan, a vampire, who is trying to blend in into society, and this book is told from his perspective. I really liked the main character, he is charismatic and very human-like. I enjoyed his thoughts and feelings, it was quite surprising to see how much warmth and love a vampire can have.
