About this audiobook

From the creator and star of Hamilton comes an audiobook of affirmations to inspire listeners at the beginning and end of each day.

“When the world is bringing you down, Gmorning, Gnight! will remind you that you are awesome.”—Booklist

Good morning. Do NOT get stuck in the comments section of life today. Make, do, create the things. Let others tussle it out. Vamos!

Before he inspired the world with Hamilton and was catapulted to international fame, Lin-Manuel Miranda was inspiring his Twitter followers with words of encouragement at the beginning and end of each day. He wrote these original sayings, aphorisms, and poetry for himself as much as for others. But as Miranda’s audience grew, these messages took on a life on their own. Now Miranda has gathered the best of his daily greetings into a collection. Full of comfort and motivation, Gmorning, Gnight! is a touchstone for anyone who needs a quick lift.

I adore this book. I'm listening to it now. I have listened to it morning and night since it became available. Lin's voice is soothing and his words are a balm. He's speaking encouragement and inspiration and love and compliments directly into your brain and it is beautiful. I smile and laugh and tear up a bit listening to this. As Lin notes in the introduction, "this saved me."

Absolutely love Lin. He is an inspired to millions including me. I have always loved his tweets, I have his tweets that has helped me hung up. Hearing him read what he wrote, puts a little love in my heart, a little strength in my spirit. If you need a little lift, I recommend this book!
