Publisher's Summary

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.

Critic Reviews

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

I tried out Audible just for this book and I cried.

I’ve gone to LMM’s twitter page primarily for his Gmorning and Gnight tweets and I was so excited when he announced that he was making them into a book. Then I saw that he also recorded it for Audible and I figured I’d give it a try one morning as I was prepping for work. On the drive over, the one tweet he reads where he says that “the world is lucky to have you” just made me break down out of nowhere and I had to pull my car over to cry. I dunno, maybe it was the way that he said it, but it made me incredibly emotional, probably because for once I actually believed that about myself. I’m in a place where I don’t want to be and oftentimes I cling to small messages like this just to get me through 8 tough hours. So thank you, LMM, for bringing Hamilton into my life and really inspiring me to take my own shot and performing this book for all of us that really need the pep talks at the beginning and end of each day. Much love to everyone.

Inspirational

Coffee? No! This is the BEST way to start your morning and you wouldn’t need anything else to make you feel or do better than with this very audible book. Lin has a talent and charisma that jumps from words to his crafted annunciations, diction, tone of voice and pitch. He’ll make you feel as though he is simply a friend giving you the “pep talk” you needed to conquer your day (and or night) ;)

Worth every word

I was one of the millions who BEGGED for this book. I wasn't expecting to tear up during the intro. Lin reading his words to ME. That is how you will feel listening. Thank you Lin for nudging us out of bed and kissing our foreheads at night. Your words were heaven sent many days. You mean the world to us.

Just finished. Can't wait to restart

The world doesn't deserve Lin-Manuel Miranda. He gives so much more than he takes and what he gives is pure gold.

Even being a huge fan, I wondered how it could possibly be worth a credit to get a 46 minute book. Oh but I'm glad I did. This was beautiful. I just finished and I can't wait to hear it again. And again. And again.

A moment of comfort and hope

I, like all of twitter, have been obsessed with Lin Manuel Miranda's good morning and good night tweets. They are hopeful, they are comforting, they are funny, they are thought provoking, and they are often exactly the reminder I needed. I longed for him to compile a book and was beyond ecstatic when that wish became a reality. Little did I know that it would exceed my expectations in it's audiobook form. Although short in length, this audiobook is high in impact. Lin's delivery is everything you would expect from him: earnest, energizing, comforting, the list goes on!
