My second read after many years, i remembered it to be labourious to get through before. Now, the prose is refreshing, and is respite from the drivel i consume from social media. I enjoyed the plot, mainly because i enjoy the musical that is based off this book, and now having experienced both, i enjoy the little liberties that each artist brought to their own production. I would read this again just to enjoy the writing.
