Have you read this book : Michael Jackson, the Magic, the madness, the whole story. writen by J.Randy Taraborrelli??

Yeah, it's very well written. I wrote an essay on Michael for my English class last year, & Taraborelli's book was my biggest information source. Btw: I got an A on that paper!

I didn't read the book. I just wanted to say I think J. Randy Taraborrelli has an advantage over those other authors because he actually knew Mike. But I advise that you read with caution, if Mike didn't say it, DON'T believe it. Mike told us exactly what he wanted us to know. Below is an old pic of Mike and J. Randy-

I actually got the book as a surprise Xmas present from my mom last year, & I have to say, WOW! It was quite a read.
It took me about almost an entire week to read through the whole thing.
I thought it was a pretty good book, wasn't too bad, compared to the other book I got from my mom which was unfortunately Ian Halperin's "MJ: The Final Years" which truthfully was NOT a good book whatsoever.
But hopefully, the next time my mom gets me anymore MJ books, I'll let her know of which ones I would approve of.

That book has loads of BS in it I know

I have read this book as well. My overall opinion of the book and the author was positive. However, like most things about Michael, there's a little bit of truth sprinkled in with a bit of hearsay, maybes, I thought someone said something. A bit of fact with a bit of fiction.

I read this book about 2 years ago. I remember I was in wegmans with a friend in the summer and i was reading it and she was talking and I kept telling her to shut up lol. I begged my mom to buy it for me but she didn't LOL. and then in like the fall my dad bought the book for me. I read it, and wow, I have to say it was really an amazing book. But some of the stuff in there you could tell might not be true. I haven't read it in awhile so i can't give anyone the exact exerpts that might not have been true

I did read this book, I thought that it was pretty good. Not sure if everything was true in it, I doubt it.

Yes I have read it...but I doubt that all are true,because there is written for example that when MJ was performing Remember The Time in a chair Taraborrelli says that it's fake,that MJ faked it and his leg was not hurt...but I remember that I read somewhere that Taraborrellis book isn't all true and that MJs leg was really hurt...so I have doubts,but of course it's a good book because other books about MJ are horrible!!!
