For Myself, I Would Rec:

For myself, I would rec:

1) Fab Gear: The Beatles And Fashion (Book by Paolo Hewitt)-> My fave so far amongst all the Beatles books that I have read, art & (Beatles) fashion rocks!🎨🕶👍 my rating: 10/10

2) Beatles '66: The Revolutionary Year (Book by Steve Turner)-> Basically, my fave Beatles year, so if you're into their psychedelic transition period too, this book's for you too🌈🌈🌈😊👍 my rating: 9/10

3) In His Own Write (Book by John Lennon himself)-> Well, if you're a Beatles fan, you just need to read what goes on in this Beatle mind, nonsensical stuff indeed✏📖🃏😅 my rating: 7.5/10

4) Being John Lennon (Book by Ray Connolly)-> Awesome, non-draggy autobiography of John, has some shocking & also bittersweet eg. the last few days/ years of John b4 his death parts... ❤🌈🌸my rating: 9/10

5) (Okay, this one's not directly a Beatles book but she is John's wife so lets just inc her in) Yoko Ono: Collector Of Skies (Book by Nell Beram & Carolyn Boriss-Krimsky)-> Just like book #4 as above, this is an autobiography of Yoko told in a simplified way, suitable for teens🎨🌈✏👘 my rating: 8/10

6) Grapefruit (Book by Yoko Ono herself)-> A cool compilation of Yoko's instructions that has a dreamy vibe to it imo, just like the authoress herself, no wonder John became intrigued by her & her art back in '66-'68!✏📖👘 my rating: 9/10

7) John (Solo Series)-> An easy to understand book to satisfy some of your John obsession😆👍my rating: 7.5/10

8) Revolver-> Technical explanation on how the band made the album’s songs from a music studio POV, still can satisfy the Revolver obsession in you (if you have, that is, like yours truly heee😆👍)💿my rating: 8/10

**I can't seem to find John's other self-written book as below via online though...😐

- A Spaniard In The Works

*** I probably will update further in this post because me have read other Beatles-related books although some of them are for children (well, I work in a library that's why😊✌) & maybe also including books that the Beatles found inspo material for their songs... these inc adaptations from their songs (for eg. A Little Help From My Friends, Octopus' Garden + sing-along CD, Imagine etc.), Paul's Grandude series & the Tibetan Book Of The Dead...😋🤙

Till then... reading is life!💛📖

What Beatles books would you recommend? If any :)

personally for information overloads i liked:

the beatles anthology by the beatles

the beatles biography by hunter davies

the beatles biography by bob spitz

all the songs: the story behind every beatles release by jean-michel guesdon

the beatles lyrics: the stores behind the music by hunter davies

the beatles book by hunter davies

to read just for fun I liked:

both of john lennon's books

john by cynthia lennon

150 glimpses of the beatles by craig brown (this is the same book as one, two, three, four: the beatles in time by craig brown)

wonderful tonight: george harrison, eric clapton, and me by pattie boyd

riding so high: the beatles and drugs by joe gooden

here, there, and everywhere: my life recording the music of the beatles by geoff emerick

the john lennon letters by hunter davies

Thank you for still remembering my request, Beatle fanartist friend, @helga-oko ! Groovy! & the other 3 mini Beatles sitting & chilling on the guitar neck like that… so cute😋

Really subtle but nice Johnny sketch you posted there! It kinda looks like Paulie too! Do you accept requests? Thanks!☺️👍

Thank you! Yes! That's like if Paul put on John's glasses, innit? Gimme ur request 😁 but I'll draw only if it's connected with musicians and if it's not smth hard
