Ok, fair enough. But that book is basically stills from her tour, right?

The images look like **** though and the book is riddled with typos. It’s a clear cash grab

Do they? I thought the images looked pretty great. I don’t mind the typos. Also the fact that we get artwork for her outfits was cool too.

From what I have seen online and from complaints it doesn’t seem like a lot of the images are high quality. People were pissed about the typos too. Idk, if you’re going to charge that much for a tour art book the names of the songs should be spelled correctly. Someone circled all the typos on a single page and it was like 10. That is egregious.

I didn’t catch that!  Do you have a link by any chance? 

I don’t mind the typos though unless they’re absolutely noticeable

I mean Taylor Swift literally just released her "Eras Tour Book" for $39 dollars, and it has twice as many pages and a hardcover binding too... But the content probably differs - beyoncé likely did photoshoots, collages, etc. as usual whereas the Eras book is mainly just tour photography.

Tbf judging on the vids i've seen on SwiftTok there's a lot of quality issues with the first run of this. 
Grammar issues, lack of general editing of the text. Lots of photos awkwardly placed so the main shot is in the centre seem/cut off. And I saw one person get it where the pages were back to front & upside down lol

Like with most things, Taylor the exception and not the standard. Most coffee table books like this are $60+

And like you said: Beyoncé's has photoshoots, concept sketches, mood boards, etc judging from all her past books
