Ok, I’ve noticed that the acknowledgements section of the Linda McCartney book thanks “Heather, Mary and James”. Does anyone have any idea why Stella isn’t mentioned? I haven’t had any success Googling it.

My hot take is that after the Beatles split they went down the paths of spiritualism, solipsism, alcoholism, and Paul McCartney

Having had to move my ton of possessions three times since 2017, I’ve decided to rid myself of a lot of stuff. These seem to be the only Beatles related books I still have, and I guess I’m gonna conginue keeping all of them

Going to read the Untold Story of Mal Evans. Insanely interesting and tragic subject matter. Dying at 40 from gunshots before John.

I only own a few Beatle books 
I have two copies of “The Unseen Beatles” by Bob Whitaker
and “Who were the Beatles” by Geoff Edgers. I own this one mostly for the goofy illustrations in the books.
I get a lot of my books from the library, so I don’t have to buy them.

I am a retired Librarian so I love to know you are making good use of your library, @Oakwood. If your library doesn’t have a book you’d like to read, ask about interlibrary loans.

I practically live at the library.  I haven’t heard of an interlibrary loan before, I checked and my library system does offer them. For the most part the library system I go to has a lot of resources so in most cases I can rely on it. They have a ton of Beatles books and movies. Yeah I love the library it’s a fun place to hang out.

I recently purchased “A Cellarful of Noise” by Brian Epsten which I’m currently halfway through. I’ll try to make up a full list at some point.
