John kay steele biography of rory gilmore
•
I absolutely LOVED watching Gilmore Girls. Not when it was actually on TV – oh no, no – but YEARS after. I fell in love with it and then watched it over and over and over again.
Those were the days.
I loved Rory’s reading addiction and had previously joined the Rory Gilmore Reading Challenge (back on my old blog) and thought it would be fun to join again.
Of course, I doubt I’ll ever get through all of these books, but it’s fun to try, right?
I’m going to mark the books I’ve read in BOLD. Here are the books:
- 1984 by George Orwell
- Absolute Rage by Robert Tanenbaum
- The Age of Innocence by Edith Wharton
- Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain
- Adventures of Tom Sawyer by Mark Twain
- Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll
- All the President’s Men by Carl Bernstein and Bob Woodward
- All the Pretty Horses by Cormac McCarthy
- The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay by Michael Chabon
- American Steel by Richard Preston
- An American Tragedy by Theodore Dreiser
