Awh, thanks Lauren. Same here!! Only NON fictional books!! I don't like fictional books written on Michael. :no2:

Serge: I only payed about $7.00 for mine, and yet originally, Amazon.com wanted $42.00 for it! I was like :O Why pay full price for a new book when I can just buy it at a really cheap price and it is still in good condition?? :lol: *cheapskate*

And i've read bits and peices of it online too. But I wanted it to own. :happy:

WHAT? Over 30 percent didnīt read "Dancing the Dream"???? Shame on you.. :no: Im just kidding.. ;) But for those who didnīt read it yet.. DO IT.. Itīs more than worth it. Not just because itīs Michaels book and it should be in your collection. Itīs more than this. That book itīs a kinda invitation for a roller coaster ride straight through his soul. During reading this book you learn a lot about him and the way he thinks, the way he feels and just the way he really is. Itīs amazing. Do it guys. Read it.

OT: Awh, look at MJ to the right of this text box :wub::wub:!!

Anywho, I ordered mine from www.amazon.com ... you can get them there, either new or used. I've ordered from there before and they're very reliable :yes:

The used are cheaper than the new, because originally this book is about $40.00 US money :eek:! :blink:

I love this book so much, I like to read it when it's a little bit grey outside and I'm in bed.. it lifts my spirits.

I think it's probably one of my most favourite pieces of memrobilia. :wub: absolutely beautiful from every word to every image to how it's presented. DTD is perfection.

I'm quite proud of owning a prestine first edition copy.

awh :wub:

I really cannot wait to get mine :yes: I am sure it will make me feel better and lift my spirits up, as well. Someone sent me something, a story, out of this book once when I was depressed and it just..it made me feel as if I were not alone. :no2: And also, I didn't know and couldn't believe that Michael'd wrote such a beautiful thing. :eek:

I borrowed it from the library... (some pages were missing.. loosers!)

Lindsay
9th February 2008, 06:31 PM
Still haven't gotten mine!!! I'm gonna have to file a complaint by tuesday if it doesn't show up :yes:

Lindsay
12th February 2008, 12:25 AM
Gahh! :eek: :mellow: This was moved to polls cuz it was a poll :( :( *frowny face*

Anywho, I GOT IT :crazylol: It finally arrived today in a cardboard box thingie, that was a PAIN in my ASS to open. :dry:

I love it :happy:

Doesn't have a cover, but MEH. Still perfect..smells like someone's old basement but MEH, it's soo hot. The pictures. Oh my gosh :wub: Now to start reading it :yes:

12th February 2008, 01:54 AM
I have a few books, but not this one, but then there is the tape of him in court, so that is cooler,would nt you think .

Lindsay
12th February 2008, 02:05 AM
^^No, because these are personal poems and personal insights by Michael, himself.

I read a few and just thought..OMG.. Michael and I are soo much alike. I couldn't believe it. He believes things similarly to how I do..

Gah..and how he describes things in this book... sheds new light onto his soul..

Invincible J
12th February 2008, 02:00 PM
Isn't it gorgeous Lindsay? I swear that book has put a smile on my face when I've felt really down. I love reading it, snuggled up in bed with a cup of tea. It just makes me feel all warm, love and wubbly :wub:

Lindsay
12th February 2008, 09:34 PM
Yeah. I agree. Most of the stories/poems and whatnot told so far are written so that a child can sit down and read it. No joke. It's so precious. :wub: I haven't gotten far...i am actually taking my time. :lol:

I highly recommend it to any MJ fan :yes: :wub:

Ohh I want it sooooooooooooooooooooooooooo bad :( I saw it a while ago for Ģ4 I think [$8] and I thought, I'll wait for it to be cheaper another time. I wish I hadn't - I don't think I'll be able to afford it until I get a job ;_; [Just so you know, I'm not stingy - I'm just poor :lol:]

This book is not poetry :mellow:

It's a book of his reflections and insights about stuff. Kinda like a journal.
