      I wondered if anyone has these books or has read them. If so, what is your take on them? Are they better/not better/the same as other Lennon bios?

      Each author claims to have a better take than previous  or other authors.

      Just wondered how those of you who have read them, rate them.

        I have all except the 2nd one (Shivering Inside) but haven’t read them yet! In my defense, I was just able to get the first one through Fest For Beatles Fans recently and wanted to start with it.

          There must not be much of a demand for these books. I would think by reading her credentials she could figure out how to get more printed.

            I think there IS a demand for the books - Shivering Inside is being sold by Amazon secondary sellers starting at $119.93! You can only get the Kindle edition on Amazon for $9.99, but I want the physical book. My friend will be going to the Fest For Beatles Fans in August and if Jude is there, will have her get SI for me if possible.

              Right. I knew you could get them on Kindle. Second one? Says sold out on Amazon (I think it was on Amazon. No need to fact check. Not important).

              If they are selling for $119+, that's not something that most people will invest in for one book out of four. I know that you are a Beatles' collector and have quite a massive inventory, so it makes sense for you and other collectors to pay that much.
