My Ukulele for Dummies book is now available in the UK (Amazon sold out their first batch straight away but they’re back in stock now). People have already been getting their copies (including my mum who was practically bashing on the doors of Amazon on the day of release). If you’re one of those, it would be great if you could leave a review on Amazon. Good, bad or indifferent. It would be great to have reviews on the UK site when it’s released in the US in August. And I’m, of course, very interested to see what people make of it.
