Without You

The Bookworm says... Yes! Without You: a Memoir of Love, Loss, and the Musical RENT by Anthony Rapp was outstanding. The book is a heart wrenching exposition of the world we live in. From the beginning of the RENT workshop, through the Broadway closing night; through the end of his mothers life; and through his relationship concerns, Anthony Rapp tells this beautiful story. A raw and true retelling of experience, sure to show similarity to everyone's lives. This book is a must read for ANY musical theatre fan (but you should still read it even if you aren't!). It left me speechless.
"Well, you know, you have to grieve the loss of the person, you know, the fact that the actual person won't be there anymore to talk to, to laugh with, to share memories with, that sort of thing."
