Gmorning, Gnight!: Little Pep Talks for Me & You (by Lin-Manuel Miranda)

This was for the "audiobook of poetry" category of the RHC, which means it was narrated by Lin-Manuel Miranda.  It seems to be a compilation of bookended tweets, which start off with a "gmorning" and ends with a "gnight" and expresses love, affirmation, and optimism. Here's an example:

Gnight.
This moment will pass.
This fatigue will pass.
Tonight will pass.
But look at you, with the gift of imagination.
You can teleport to where you're happiest just by closing your eyes and breathing.
Then come right back to now, check in with the present.
You magic thing, you.

I'm considering buying the audiobook (this was a library loan) because he's so positive and uplifting, and his messages are so great, I think Mina could use this in her rotation as well. LMM is a treasure. (And, I will never neglect to mention, called me "sweetheart" once outside the Richard Rodgers theater.)
