Music, Movies, and Books

I like many many books. Especially ones that make you think, like those involving psychology type things. Authors I read a lot of include Jodi Picoult, Bryce Courtney, Paulina Simons. I also have a secret (or not so now) like of Harry Potter and children's books like The Gruffalo (to read to children obviously).
Movies... one of all time favourites would be Pulp Fiction. Butterfly Effect is up there.
Music... Anything and everything with the exception of Classical and Heavy Metal. Depends on the mood and occasion. All time goods include Ben Harper, Bob Marley, UB40, Jurassic 5, John Butler Trio, Sublime, The Killers, Kings of Leon. Slightly bias towards New Zealand music (if you don't know any - I will introduce you). Greats include... The Black Seeds, Katchafire, Fat Freddy's Drop, Kora, Concord Dawn, Bonjah, Shapeshifter, Rhombus... the list goes on.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
