I have the recipe book. It's a shame I'm too lazy to cook and I also think that I'm a cooking disaster :D
The recipes seem really tasty, maybe someday I'll try to prepare some of them and let you know the results....lol

The BAM book is interesting in places if you have an interest in the story around the guy who claimed he wrote Possession and then killed himself because that takes up much of the book.... Otherwise its not that good as she (Judith Fitzgerald) seems more interested in talking about herself or putting down Sarah & Terry McBride rather than talking about Sarah's life... It does however have an excellent selection of old press cutting and pictures of old merchandise in there!

From Lilith to Lilith Fair is a better book but it covers more than just Sarah so I wouldn't recommend it as a bio of her. I do wish Sarah would do her own book like Tori Amos and Jewel did, I think it would be an awesome read!

Plenty is the best book as my friends who I have made the Writers Block Cookies for will tell you! :lol:

It seems Fitzgerald had at one time a site decicaed to her intrest in Uwe Vandrei:

It also seems she used parts of the old Sarah FAQ in her book without the writers permission:

Also Terry McBride has written a book on Nettwerk thats bound to have some stuff on Sarah in:

i found this one pretty interesting. the other one was either not working or was taking really long, so ill take a look at it when i get home (im at work right now). i am excited to read about the uwe vandrei. it seemed like she was very interested in that in the book too. by seeing how she even interviewed his sister i think it was? i might go back and read that over :)

im def. gonna get the From lilith to lilith fair though :)

I remember seeing this book in a book fair several years ago. I read a few pages, but I felt that it was a little lightweight and the style was a little juvenile in places. I know this sounds unkind, it's not meant to be, but what little I read didn't inspire me to buy it.
It would be interesting to hear what you all think of it.
