Maybe I'll review this at some point. But I must say audible is a great choice for this one.

How could a night so frozen
Be so scalding hot?
How can a morning this mild
Be so raw?


I expected a few stories from his time at RENT, but I was completely blown away by how much emotions I felt. This is the definition of an emotional rollercoaster. I know loss was in the title, but this was on another level. I had to stop reading multiple times because I didn't want to deal with crying - not sure if that's a good or bad thing, though. As a Renthead, as they would call it, this was a very nice read. Anthony Rapp put a lot of thought and time into this and it shows.

i basically love reading anything about rent, and even though anthony rapp isn't a phenomenal writer, i learned a lot about him, about rent, about jonathan larson, etc. the story of the illness and death of his mother definitely made me cry a little in public.

Another rating out of sheer personal emotion, but RENT, Jonathan Larson, Anthony Rapp...love, loss. It all just hits me in the most potent and serious of ways. And I am indebted.
