I recently finished reading John & Paul: A Love Story in Songs. I thoroughly enjoyed this book by Ian Leslie about the writing collaboration and partnership between John Lennon and Paul McCartney. I’ve been a fan of The Beatles for over 15 years now, and they became one of my favorite bands. This book added a lot of insight and depth to my understanding of their songwriting craft, the development of the Beatles, the breakup, and aftermath of the 70’s as well as John Lennon’s murder in 1980.
