I love this book..... Like discovering a shoebox full of love letters. Utterly entrancing and a pleasure to read. Very intimate. The kind of book the mega-publishers wouldn't and probably couldn't put out. Kudos!

OK.
It was interesting but not what I was expecting. There were a couple of quotes I’d never heard, a few photos I’d never seen. As a Beatles fan that remembers their first arrival in the US, I expected something more here.

Judith's wonderful book, "John Lennon: In Their Own Write: A Loving Tribute From His Friends and Fans" is a wonderful, intimate love letter to John and the Beatles and a magical era. The kind that burns twice as bright but sadly half as long. If you are a fan of John and Beatles as I am and enjoy not only wonderful poetry but amazing artwork, do yourself a favor and have a look at this book. It's a wonderful keepsake, scrapbook, love-letter and time capsule. It's something I never tire of going back to. I'm always finding some jewel that I somehow overlooked earlier.
