Hamilton: The Revolution | Lin-Manuel Miranda

Still trying to process that I actually got to see Hamilton in my hometown Austin last night!!! And I got autographs! Nik Walker (Aaron Burr, sir!)—ok, there are a lot of really great actors in the #philiptour but he was on fire!! Tremendous stage presence.🔥 Aaaand Marcus Choi (George Washington), who also commanded the stage with powerful presence and rocked that #asianrep. 👊

annahenke So jealous! 5y
alysonimagines @annahenke I hope you get a chance to see it sometime! (edited) 5y

Got to see the movie today and I really enjoyed it! Yes, it condenses and cuts a lot of details from the book, but there‘s only so much you can get across in two hours. Still thought it was better than the harsh reviews critics and moviegoers are giving it, though. Maybe it helps that I read the book first? Visual FX are amazing—the world of traction cities is really fascinating. And Anna Fang is my hero! #asianrep 👊🖤 Would def see this again.

I wasn‘t planning to read this until I saw the movie trailer. Sure, steampunk cities on wheels are cool. But a girl with a disfigured face and a vengeance mission? That image really hooked me. And I ended up loving the novel. The plot is cinematically thrilling, the world is beautifully described, and the characters are so vibrant I held my breath for each of their fates. Now I want to read the whole series and see the movie!

butterbeerheist I didn‘t know it was a book series! I watched the movie and really liked it. I can imagine the books are even better. 5y
alysonimagines @butterbeerheist Yay! I‘m glad to hear you liked the movie even without reading the book. I‘m planning to go see it tomorrow. Eeee! 5y
alysonimagines And I must add as a postscript that I also 💜 the aviatrix Anna Fang, who features as a really badass Asian woman! #asianrep (edited) 5y

Chelleo I just learned it was a book series yesterday. Will have to check it out! 5y
Chelleo @alysonwrites now I can get behind a badass Asian sis! 5y
alysonimagines @Chelleo Yay! Due to TBR backlog I won‘t get to the whole series right away but I already bought the books, so I‘m excited about reading the rest soon! 5y
alysonimagines @Chelleo Right? And it‘s so great to see more Asian rep in movies too. The Korean actress Jihae, who plays Anna Fang in the film adaptation, looks killer! 👊 5y

If you haven't read the first two books, you should do that right now. This one focuses on younger sister Bea, who desperately wants to follow in her big sister's superheroine footsteps. This was crazy and fun, but the best part is that there will be more books in this series!!! 🎉🌈🔥💜
