Just read the cutest interview with Ringo 🥦
My Beatles book collection so far. 35 about the group, 7 about John, 3 about Paul, 2 about Ringo, 5 about McLennon, oops, I mean, Lennon-McCartney 😛, and 1 book about Beatles songs for the harmonica. 
Genius 💯
i do hate when mclennon fics that aren't aus devalue the importance of the music and make all the tension between them romantic/sexual like are we forgetting that their biggest insecurities are directly tied to each other it's not all he loves me he loves me not it's i hate my voice bc i have to sing next to vocal virtuoso mccartney every day and im scared my art wont be taken seriously bc mr in his own write is the smart beatle and im just cute and my god ESPECIALLY the get back era where john strung out and is farting out shit like dig a pony while paul seems to have a constantly flowing creative wellspring for songs which makes john even more insecure and retreats further except the songs in question all have a thesis statement of please dont leave me please dont leave me please dont leave me
Done! Here are my very brief immediate thoughts based on the main reason many of us chose to read this book--the possibility of a published author confirming McLennon that goes beyond platonic. It's a fascinating book, never boring, full of deep information that carries you along like the ship John piloted through a massive Atlantic storm (near Bermuda of all places? Could you imagine if John had disappeared in the Triangle?? 😮.) Leslie does not end up with a sexual McLennon conclusion, though I disagree with him based on his very own book. I guess it's only fair though, none of us outside the most intimate of the Beatles circle can be absolutely sure, and that's just a simple fact. He gets as close as possible though, comparing John and Paul to a very deep and meaningful friendship between two French men in the late 1500s, Michel de Montaigne and Étienne de La Boétie, which was also cut short by the death of one, while the other grieved for the rest of his life. In conclusion, the book is beautiful, John & Paul were beautiful, their love was beautiful. Read it, but know that he sees a very complex soul mated platonic love. Just so, you know, you're not disappointed waiting for the secret Liverpudlian wedding reveal. 😉☺️😇
