A couple of the essays were a little boring, if I'm being honest. It didn't help that the print was very small. However, I loved getting to know more about how this wonderful work of art came to be. I also loved Lin Manuel Miranda's annotations. I loved learning about his process and seeing some of the things that changed or hit the cutting room for completely. There were a three or four times where I was literally crying while reading this, so it definitely did its job. I love this, and I love Hamilton.
