Ok so I'm literally only on the Prologue lolol/ but I had to post this quote from Jermaine's book:"I find myself constantly reflecting, going back to a time when we believed Hollywood to be only a magical place; when we believed in the Yellow Brick Road" - It's page 5 of the Prologue (Kindle version)

It's really hard to read and imagine what he went through. Michael removed his jacket, showing his bare chest, and goes "Look at me!...Look at me! I'm the most misunderstood person in the world." (pg. 12) and then Jermaine goes into very specific detail what his skin looks like from the vitiligo because Michael had hid the extent of it from them until then.
Ok so a few more interesting things from reading:He says that after Joseph went to his little sister's funeral when he was 11, he vowed never to attend another funeral and he kept that promise. "until 2009."And he addresses the middle name issue:"From somewhere, and especially after Michael's death, a rumor began that his middle name was Joseph. Maybe this myth prefers the echo with our father's name because the crossover reads better about a father and a son who struggled to see eye to eye. 'Joe' was his middle name, as recorded on his birth certificate."He also talks about the #7:"Michael was the seventh child with seven letters in his first name and "7" was his favorite number. So, numerically, his name is "777." That's the jackpot there. The Lucky 7s...""But "7" was central to his identity."and he talks about how it was sewn into his clothes and significant in his artwork.Ok I'm going to keep reading lolol/
As well as all 3 kids birth certificates --Michael Joseph Jackson. /pull hair/
