Illusions: The Adventures of a Reluctant Messiah by Richard Bach

4.0

---

Reading it first, I was not quite sure if I understood it. I was a bit closed off at first, though the first chapter enraptured me. But then I felt distanced from the book, oddly enough; however, I decided to finish it because I knew that I was still in love with the diction and the lessons being taught -even though some were too obscure to understand. Once I got back into the groove, I finished half the book in one sitting -given introspection time- and I finished the book with a deeper understanding of what I've always believed: this life is a route defined by our thoughts, our choices, our circumstances, and us. This book is definitely worth a read.

Rating: 4.5, since halves can't be given I rounded down.
