Why Did I Read? So I actually didn’t know the premise of this one before going into it! I knew it was a popular Broadway musical and this was the novelization and knew it had gained a lot of love this year. But the synopsis?

I did feel like this one started off a bit slow and it took me longer than I expected to get into it (maybe this is just because I went […]
