It will probably surprise most people to learn that I have only just read this book, considering how big of a Michael Jackson fan I am. But seeing how I was mostly obsessed with him at High School, when this book was very difficult to get hold of, it isn’t actually that strange.

The first thing to point out is that this autobiography was first published in 1988 and so the bulk of it is about his childhood and his first two albums he produced as a solo singer (‘Off the Wall’ and ‘Thriller’). This obviously means it missed out about half his life which I have to admit I was disappointed by, but there’s not a lot you can do about that.
