Freak!: Inside the Twisted World of Michael Jackson

There are a lot of Michael Jackson fans who are not going to like this book, but for those of us who are not blinded by celebrity this is worth reading. Whatever you feel about Jackson, this book is proof that he has lived a bizarre life, that he is not the man he appears to be in front of his fans and TV cameras. I found this book very interesting because it reveals the man behind the carefully crafted Hollywood image and it's not always a pretty picture.

This is an excellent and fascinating book. With Jackson's trial about to start I couldn't resist picking this up and I wasn't disappointed. Even if you think you know everything about Michael Jackson and his career this book will provide you with new information. There's so much I had forgotten and so much I didn't know and it was all here in a very well written format. I highly recommend it.

I believe that even the mind needs junk food once in awhile and when my daughter picked up this book, I knew I had to read it when she was finished.I read it twice...because I couldn't believe my eyes the first time.Ed Breslin does a great job of getting beneath the hype and letting us see the real Michael Jackson: one messed-up individual.

Twisted doesn't even begin to describe the world of Michael Jackson. This book shows why he's a danger, to both his children and others. Michael shows classic and undeniable signs of being a pedophile who molests young teen boys, thinking it a way of "loving" them. He honestly doesn't think he's hurting them, just loving them. Sad for Michael, as most people with his disorder were themselves molested at the same age as their future preferred victims. Who molested Michael? That's the book I'd like to read next! Interesting and informative! A great read!

I'm sorry that the truth does hurt Michael Jackson fans.But....This book is only an account of what Michael himself has chosen to do with his life. It's not about LOVE or HATE, it's just about a cute, talented little boy who grew up to be a freak. (Don't kill the messenger!) If people don't like the plain & obvious truth, then don't read a book titled "Freak!" about Michael Jackson. But, if you are wondering what in the hell is going on with the King??? of Pop, this book is highly recommended.I rather enjoyed it!
