Need more Bach in your Life?

Hello all!

I did a post late last month talking about the wonderful books in the Ferret Chronicles by Richard Bach. In it, I made many a guess and an observation about the author, having not known much about him before diving into that world.

Well, if you'd like to dive into that world too, you can check out Richard Bach's OWN blog:

Not only do you get to read more of the positive energy found in the Ferret Chronicles books, but you also can learn more about Mr. Bach himself as well as his adventures online and in life!

I've been meaning to put a post up about this for a little while now, so please help me make up for my misstep by giving his blog a visit and giving the writer a hearty 'hello!'


Among other things to note, I must say that I am constantly amazed at the various ways books can be approached and experienced.

Right now, I'm reading a fantasy book called The Unlikely Ones by Mary Brown, and it's been a rough early ride. While I'm no stranger to more adult literature such as the realms of Stephen King and Patricia Cornwell, I still get tripped up when a book starts off almost forcefully 'mature', involving detailed accounts of sex, nude bodies, and gruesome violence. It was enough here that I honestly considered putting it down and trying another book that didn't seem quite so juvenile in the pleasure it took describing the shape of women's breasts.

However! I stand corrected... so far. The book has started to get exciting and the elements of the plot have become curious and uncommon to the point where I truly do want to see what comes next. It's still thick with graphic descriptions, but it is certainly not a badly written book and it does know how to draw a reader along with the plot.

So the old saying still rings true: "Don't judge a book by its cover." Though, in this case, I might say, "Don't judge a book by its first three chapters" instead.

Time to jump into some reading! Not literally, of course. These library books are delicate!

Until next time, happy reading, all!
