Introductions
Hi! My name is Lorelei, I'm nineteen and an English education major. I love literature, and as my name is lorelei, I also love Gilmore Girls. <3
Hello! I'm Bizarre, I'm from the U.S., my pronouns are she/her, I am a minor. I love Gilmore Girls I'm watching it for the first time and am on the 4th season. I love Rory's character she is pretty amazing.
Hello everyone, I am Elien from Belgium. My challenge started this month and I have finished about 5 short books already. Because it is fall I am also in the mood to rewatch Gilmore Girls and drink a lot of coffee.
I'm Cherene. I don't think people spend enough time analysing and spend too much time letting life pass them by. I read too much, vape too often, and, I'm told, that when my sister and I get together we talk so fast no one can keep up. I relate to Gilmore in that sense. I have no idea how many books off the list I've read as my obsession with lists demand I read them all again anyway. So...
It's not officially fall until you start Gilmore Girls! I watch every year :)I loved the Gilmore girls and watch the series at least once a year. I know I have a problem."
Hello! I'm Josie, I'm from Cancun, Mexico but I currently live in Indiana and I'm eighteen! I just finished applying to colleges and I applied to Harvard, doubt I'll get accepted but why not apply? I am super excited about this challenge, I wonder in what year I'll complete it.
Thank you for letting me join. I also just joined goodreads.
Hello everyone, I'm Olivia and I'm a huge fan of Gilmore Girls and crazy about reading. The problem is that I'm a student and my time for reading is not all that I would. I wish that I discover new books to read!
Hey! I'm Fera and I absolutely love Gilmore Girls and even more than that I love reading. I'm hoping to widen the variety of my taste in books over the next few years.
Hey everyone! I'm Katerina,I'm from Athens, Greece and I'm a juge Gilmore Girls fan. I watched the show for the first time when I was at about Rory's age and I've rewatched it several times since then - it's my comfort show! I also love reading (not as much as Rory though lol) and I hope I'll be able to keep up with the challenge.
Hello everyone, my name is Mina. I’m from Turkey and really excited to start this challange! I usually read many books as I can, my all time favorite book is “Madonna in a fur coat”. This is the kind of book that I would want the whole world read. I also like watching films, hiking, listening to music, dancing and a lot more!
Hi, my name is Mavis from Hong Kong but currently studying abroad in the UK. I’m a massive fan of Gilmore Girls and really excited to join the challenge:)
I'm Jackie and I'm from New York! This reading challenge has been on my to-do list for so many years and I think 2022 will be the year I start making a significant dent. Like a lot of us, I grew up watching Gilmore Girls (I have amazing memories of swapping boxed DVD sets of the first couple seasons with my best friend) and it's always been a show that stuck with me into my adult life. Rory was such a breath of fresh air to see as a female protagonist on television at the time and I really saw a lot of myself in her. Now that I'm older, I'm relating to Lorelai much more than before. Happy reading, everyone :)
Hi everyone! I am new to goodreads and love the gilmore girls, i shall try to read titles from the list as i can!
Hi everyone! My name is Elisabeth, I’m from Belgium. I’ve never actually watched Gilmore Girls (a pity, I know, yet I plan to do so very soon), but I have heard about Rory’s list of classics, and I’ve always wanted to be in a book club that reads this type of books, so here I am! Thanks for letting me join, really looking forward to reading with all of you!

(Yeah I really am so late) But I’m already hooked and since I’ve always been a book lover, I wanted to join this Rory Gilmore reading challenge.

Hi I’m Aria! I’m from Greece and I’m a sophomore in uni majoring in eng lit. I’ve been obsessed with books since I can remember myself, always asking my mum to buy me more (she was kinda annoyed at some point lol)I first finished Gilmore girls last year and I can’t stop rewatching it. It’s my all time fav show mainly cause it reminds me of me and my mum and now that I’m away for uni it makes me feel like home. 🌼🌼🌼🌼

https://medium.com/fandom-fanatics/te...Just started this challenge with my best friend and so far I'm loving it!
Hello! I have just restarted my Goodreads in an attempt to get back into reading. I track my reading using Notion but for quotes and notes I like how Goodreads automatically uploads and save them. I am learning to balance reading for fun and keeping record so I don’t forget what I read and can recommend much more accurately.
Just finished watching Gilmore Girls and decided to read some of Rory’s bookshelf since I want to get into more nonfiction this new year.
Hi! I'm Debbie from Bear, Delaware. I am a first grade teacher. I love to read anything and everything except romance. I love The Gilmore Girls. Favorite episode is Cat Kirk. I'm looking for a new challenge and this looks like fun.
Hi everyone! I'm Valeria, from Argentina. I'm a stem student and I enjoy reading so much. I'm watching Gilmore girls for the first time.
Hello! Gilmore Girls has been my comfort show since 2015 when I found it on Netflix. I’m absolutely in love with it and I watch it continuously. I’ve recent been getting back into reading and what better way to find books than read all of the classics Rory has read!
hi everyone , i’m mario :) excited to read along with not only fellow book lovers, but gilmore girls lovers as well ! the show is one of my all-time favorites , and i think lorelai gilmore is one of the greatest characters to ever grace television. i can watch and rewatch the series over and over and over … team jess , fyi.
joined this group because , like our dearest rory , i too am a fellow bookworm … but one who can only aspire to read a mere fraction of what she has. it’s usually just me , myself , and my book , so by joining this group … i hope the mods and members can help me feel a little less lonely on this journey … 💕
Hi! I'm really excited to read along with everyone. I have always wanted to be more like Rory with her love of learning. I hope reading along can bring me closer to that goal. I'm a poet/writer/artist wannabe and am working to expand my source material.
Team Jess, obv. And was Team Luke, but started getting weird vibes...
Hi everyone! I'm new here and fully embracing GG season! I even bought a GG kindle case and bookmark to celebrate! They are both from www.bergamotsunshine.com if anyone wants to check it out! Excited to chat with you all :)







I am married, have a 21 year old son and two cats that act like typical siblings.
I am trying to read at least two books off the list a month.
