I’m yet to receive my copy of the book – so I actually don’t know a lot of what’s inside. (Despite some fans being hellbent on showing us all the contents of the book by sharing all their bits on the group pages – as excited as I am for all the fans that are…
Oh, just look at it!! I really hope the postie makes my Kerrsday! Pleeeeaase, Mr Postie! ???????? Heart Of The Crowd will be released this Saturday 5th December.
