Boo. That list always makes me sad, because it neglects to even come CLOSE to where I live. *weeps in corner*

I could've pulled it up, but thanks. 
I just figured someone would know it off the top of their head.

Well, at least you can vicariously live through our adventures. Better than having nothing, no?

I have to live vicariously through too many adventures. I want to be lived through for once. *pouts*

Um, yeah, this sounds a bit scary. Like wrong cast member, but very Book of Endings-esque.
I think its simply because Anthony has always been so open about it, you know?
And side note for Book of Endings- I'm always hearing people complain about the song and its meaning but I actually love it. *shrugs a little*
Anthony's discription of Adam made me giggle :) And I could so easily picture Adam's outfit and whatnot and was thinking "aww" cause I'm a sap like that.

Good luck!
Do book reviews usually come out the day a book is released? If so, we should be on the lookout starting tomorrow.

Who's complaining? I like Book of Endings, but that's because the behaviors he's describing aren't something to aspire to and I recognize that. 
But it's like, even with Anthony's book, you don't know everything about him- you know what he wants you to know. Not to make him sound all secretive and manipulative, but there's a definite difference between knowing everything about him and knowing everything about his book.

It probably depends on where the review is. Like, I think the Times only does book reviews on Sundays?

Well, I know that in terms of the actual paper, the Book Review section comes out on Sundays. But, I think they might put reviews up on their site.

Who's complaining?
I forgot where it was exactly, but I just kinda shrugged because I think its a good song. And fans DO get crazy.

Definite good point there. But really- I still wouldn't have the guts to share some moments he did.

Can someone post the review. I hear it got a B. Not too bad...I think.
You must think I'm still sixteen.
I dropped out of high school for a reason.
And I don't care if you're pretty. I'm not admitting you are right.
My soul is not a stage.
I won't pretend I'm anything I'm not

Yea, If anyone has the link, post.

For those who can't make it out:
This “Memoir of Love, Loss and the Musical Rent” definitely demands an avid interest in the 1996 rock opera. But Rapp’s book is no roar-of-the-crowd, smell-of-the-greasepaint scrapbook; it’s a sprawling, tear-streaked life story and unabashedly sentimental ode to his mother (she died of adrenal cancer in 1997). Rapp’s personal and professional lives were like warped mirror images: As Rent went from workshop to Tony-winning theatrical sensation (Rapp played cynical filmmaker Mark), the actor watched his mother waste away. “I wanted desperately, selfishly, to be there…for her final moments. To live that dramatic deathbed scene from so many movies,” he writes. His prose can be clunky and overwrought, but his voice is unpretentious and unfailingly honest. A rare (and refreshing) occurrence in a showbiz memoir.
And they gave the book a B.
