I didn't realize how much I needed this book until I read it.Lin-Manuel Miranda, the genius behind Hamilton and In the Heights , has a pretty prolific following on Twitter. Each day he provides a tweet of encouragement in the morning and one in the evening. Sometimes they're humorous, sometimes they're inspirational, and sometimes they just hit you right where you need them to. Gmorning, Gnight! Little Pep Talks for Me & You is a compilation of those tweets of encouragement, accompanie...
Beautiful. I'm so grateful.

This was lovely to read, I adore how Lin initially tweeted these just to be nice and cheer someone’s day and it’s gotten so bigger than that because of his well-deserved fame.The illustrations were really cute and nice to see alongside the poetry.I borrowed this from the library so I’m thinking of buying the actual book and re-reading this - a double page spread every day to hopefully keep me thinking throughout the day positive thoughts.A sweet read. 3.5 stars.
Reading this book was like receiving a warm hug from a loved one that you haven’t seen in a very long time. Like coming home and feeling instantly safer. Like looking up at the sky and knowing that no matter what happens, you will be okay.
"Gmorning, love.Your best impulse, that selfless impulse, letit take the wheel.Let it drive you toward the person youdreamed you'd be."7:46 AM - 21 Nov 2017I got my daughter Lin-Manuel Miranda's book of daily affirmation/pep tweets. I guess that is a thing. They are sweet. I stil don't regret spending her future college money on Tickets to Broadway's Hamilton in July, 2016. I thought that would finally quench my daughter's interest in Hamilton, L-MM, etc., but I neglected to plan for what a craf...
This book is a compilation of short pep talks for each morning and evening, with illustrations that really add to the text (like flying garbage trucks, for example). The texts are compiled from Miranda's Twitter greetings, and I think this is a really good choice, hence my five stars.The mornings and evenings mirror each other; you can dip into the book at random, or just go through, gradually or like a book. You might also sometimes feel like putting some on Post-Its or other places of written/...
Read this in less than an hour. Remembered some of them from Twitter, which was fun. Awesome stuff.
I'm holding off on rating this because I listened to it on audio and didn't get to see any of Jonny's drawings, which I expect will be integral to the book. But just for the listening experience of Lin narrating this, his soothing voice, how short it was, how personalized the advice and kind words were in his lovely voice, I adored it. I listened to this in 45 minutes as I was lying in bed and playing Animal Crossing before going to sleep, and it made me smile and tear up and totally relax. I'm
"What if — instead of compulsively reaching for your phone — you could reach for a book? A kind of comfort object that could keep you company all day long.Jonny SunI love Gmorning, Gnight!: Little Pep Talks for Me & You. Seriously, I truly love this book. It is a charmming book of wonderfully inspiring pep talks. I feel so good starting and ending my day reading Lin-Manuel Miranda inspiring words, & Jonny Sun's drawings make me smile. Rather than boring you with my take on Lin-Manuel Miranda ins...
This book had me at Lin Manuel Miranda. When I saw Gmorning, Gnight! I clicked, “borrow” as fast as I could. If you are not on Twitter then you may not be familiar with Lin Manuel Miranda’s encouraging tweets. The man behind Hamilton and all his other gifts he has given to us uses Twitter to write little words to his followers. One for Gmorning and one for Gnight. The words aren’t extravagant, they are simple, and just what people need to hear when they wake up and when they lay their heads down...
3.5 starsLin's narration = <3Love his energy!This lifted my mood and was very peaceful to me.Would recommend.
I don’t have a book of quotationsOr wisdom I pull from the shelf;Most often the greetings I wish youAre the greetings I wish for myself.So if I write “relax,” then I’m nervous,Or if I write, “cheer up,” then I’m blue.I’m writing what I wish somebody would say,Then switching the pronoun to you.And after a few years of greetings,They started to vary in tone;And people said, “Lin, your gmornings and nightsAre the nicest things up in my phone.”What's not to love about Lin-Manuel Miranda? This book i...
Perfection. Lin-Manuel Miranda is maybe the most incredible human being on the planet.A personal story about how one of Lin's tweets helped me, with a content warning for talk of suicide: The news that Anthony Bourdain had taken his own life came when I was at my own emotional low-point. I was in a job that I had loved and fought for, but was working for a boss who was destroying my soul. Before long, it grew into the single worst depressive episode of my life. I often woke up at 2 in the mornin...
This was an adorkable little read 🤓📚Lin is such a ray of sunshine. Jonny Sun's illustrations are very cute and add quirky little moments to Lin's original tweets.This book is such a sweet idea and a nice way to start & end your day if you want to break this down and read the affirmations one at a time.I've no doubt they'll brighten anyone's day - so many made my little cold dark heart smile.Such a Lin'amon Roll 🤩
Gmorning. Hope springs eternal.Gnight. Collection is infernal. I’m going to sound like a big grumpus here, but I found neither motivation nor inspiration in these greetings, in fact they’re trite bordering on nonsensical. Honestly, I’d rather read Dr. Seuss, at least those rhyme.An example…Gmorning. Wear sensible shoes as you kick down doors.Gnight, Take off your sensible shoes, put on your dancin’ shoes, you deserve it.Let the power of that wash over you before you read this next one…Gmornin
book #8 done for the contemporary-a-thon under the challenge of: read a contemporary in a non-traditional format. ✔ these were so cute and sweet and honestly warmed my smol anxious little heart
Gmorning, Gnight!: Little Pep Talks for Me & You is an adorable book of affirmations, that is equal parts inspirational and funny plus the gorgeous illustrations are an added treat to the eyes. On the whole, this book is really very simple, just a few words accompanying the good morning and good night greetings, but those handful of words are totally spot on! One could open this up at any page and read it and be delighted/inspired/encouraged by them. I think this is a perfect coffee-table book a...
