Wow, Rentsecrets is just...wow.
I love the one that has a picture of Scary Spice as Mimi and says, "Worst Mimi Ever. Melanie B should've been 'Sucky Spice.'"
Oooh, and I finally ordered Without You on amazon(along with the Rent bible to save some moolah)!! I think my dad's credit card is crying, though, since I've borrowed it so much...hehe.

I’m usually not the best at taking my thoughts and making them seem sensible on paper, but I thought I would give it a try. I started Without You last night and just finished it. It’s weird. It affected me a lot more than I thought it would and put me in this mood where I’m not really sure what to do exactly. Maybe that’s why I’m writing this. Maybe I just want to get some stuff out. This isn’t going to be a review, because after the emotional ride I just got off, there’s no way I could “critique” Anthony’s writing, nor would I want to.
Anthony is so truthful. His writing is pure and honest and brave. I honestly hope people don’t see him in a different light because of some of the things he brings up in Without You. As LariTheLoud and Emcee had mentioned earlier in their “musings”, you almost feel like this is something you shouldn’t be reading. It is so personal. At times, I felt like I was secretly reading a journal and was waiting to be caught.
I clearly knew Anthony was a good writer from his posts here, but he is such a TALENTED writer. It amazes me to think that before he started posting here, I had never known that he has such a great and natural way with words – that he was simply a voice on my OBCR. He is not only talented with his actual words, which are vivid and so descriptive. The way the book is formatted, the way that flashbacks and little stories weave in and out through the bigger picture was just – I don’t know, something that was just done so well.
Anthony used his words so wisely. He uses them as tools to tell his tale. There were stories that I had heard before, such as Jonathan’s death, yet, I felt like I was hearing it for the first time. He really knows the way to pull his reader in. I felt like I was being guided along side by side.
The book is so touching, and at times, truly tragic. I don’t think I’ve ever been so affected by a book as I was with Without You. I finished my box of tissues, if that gives you any idea. Anthony just laid his flesh out on the table. He held nothing back, and it took a lot of courage for him to do that. There are things that I didn’t expect, that surprised me a little bit about his character, but if anything, seeing Anthony come through all of these situations only upped my respect for him as an actor, as a writer, and as a person.
I think this is the type of book you can pick up ten times, and still be affected and find something different that grabs you.
So, yea, I hope that made some type of sense. It's a great read and I'm sure you guys will love it.

I was gone for a day and we've started a new thread already? This is crazy!
And what is this Rentsecrets thing?

Posted: 1/28/06 at 5:27pmBeautifully put, Fantab. Are you going to post it in the thread on the mainboard too? You really should.

Skittles - I put it in Dreaminaret's thread on the main board. It'll probably get lost in there, since it got way off topic before, but I didn't want to start a new thread.

I've been in this melancholy daze all afternoon (we just found out that my dog needs a ligament replacement for the second time...on her "good" leg), so I sent in a Rentsecret.
I'm gonna go listen to some NYTW songs featuring Roger. Maybe it'll make me laugh a little.

Exactly. I laugh at it more than scream at it, though.
Especially "Right Brain." The first time I heard it, I almost fell out of my chair.

Posted: 1/28/06 at 5:43pmIt really sounds like he's really struggling to get the words out and to stop from passing out.

Posted: 1/28/06 at 5:47pmI was in a class yesterday and my prof was talking about real estate and I sat there singing "Have you considered real estate? Real estate? Real estate" in my head.

Posted: 1/28/06 at 5:52pmDude, they were desperate. Didn't they have Anthony singing Roger's parts at one point because they hadn't cast anyone yet?
