Yes, not too bad. But when you actually want to know what makes
an oscillator tick, i would rather recommend [1] as a treatment
of general electronic oscillators. If that is too theoretic, then [2]
provides a more practical approach. [3] is a quite nice treatment
of various transistor based oscillators, but also covers the more
advanced stuff like noise in oscillators. When it comes to quartz
oscillators, then [4] and [5] are pretty much the standard literature.

If all of these are too long, then have a look at Ulrich Rohdes
dissertation [6].

I must not become metastable. 
Metastability is the mind-killer.
Metastability is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my metastability. 
I will permit it to pass over me and through me. 
And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. 
Where the metastability has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.
