I love Cynthia Lennon so it was only natural that I would read her books. While her second book John is pretty candid this one actually is a lighter version, in the end she tries to wrap up quickly and i can understand that. The end of Cynthia and John’s marriage was traumatic , I deliberately left that part of the story. This memoir by Cyn is a treasurefor me

Very happy with this book, it is autographed by Cynthia Lennon. It is in very good condition to be an older book.

John was a real schmuck to Julian which is too bad.

this book tells a different side of John Lennon...the private young man! Very insightful...a love story that somehow got off the tracks. Too bad!

On apprend beaucoup de choses sur John Lennon notamment ses débuts et ceux des Beatles. L'anglais est parfaitement compréhensible car écrit simplement. Ce livre m'a beaucoup plu.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sweet and not Sour
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 19, 2015
Cynthia lennon's fascinating account of her relationship with John, beginning with their meeting at art school, and chronicling all their ups and downs. the book is full of interesting and sometimes funny stories about life with the beatles, and as well as photographs is illustrated with cynthia Lennon's own charming drawings of incidents in their life. There is no bitterness in this book, and the eventual breakup with john is recounted with regret but no rancour. This book should be enjoyed by anyone with an interest in the Beatles.

5.0 out of 5 stars A twist of lennon
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 19, 2014
Why mention her new married name, i dont understand, but she made you frrl you were with her every step of the way. She sold what possetions she had from John, but changed her name back to lennon.I still belive John was coerst into marrying the jap, because all yoko did was bother him, she had set her sights on John from the start. There a film of her and kyoko father in London, looking like they are sizing the place up.
