I don't believe ALEXANDER HAMILTON was gay, and history hasn't got much to suggest it.  So, why go there at all?

A lot of people shipped Hamilton and Laurens from the musical; some of his biographers have speculated on that topic.

You guess?  Why answer a concept not in your book?  Of fiction...?  Then perhaps you could have inflated any melodrama which of course was beside your point.  There were other remarks about your editor, suggesting oversights (tea/coffee). 
I would like to read your book but I don't read books anymore.  Most reviews are glowing.

My eyesight is poor, but good enough to read the computer.  I have RON HOWARD's memoir with his brother CLINT which I can't see well enough to finish.  I gave up books a few years ago.  Acceptance is an important lesson of life.

A cop drives up to a Catholic priest walking down the sidewalk.

Cop- "I'm looking for a child molester!"
Priest- excitedly- "Will I do!?"

I was gonna put this in Stupid Jokes- but I can't find it.
