Reading list: Rory Gilmore's Reading List
A list of the books Rory Gilmore read or were mentioned on the show "Gilmore Girls".
I love book lists but as this quote suggests, read what you want and only what you want.
"Read widely, and without apology. Read what you want to read, not what someone tells you you should read."
— Joyce Carol Oates.
I hope you enjoy this list. Happy Reading!
*This is a list in progress, I still have more than 200 books to post up but I am in need of a coffee break and a stretch.

by Judy Blume
Note: In many lists relating to Rory Gilmore the book is listed as The Gospel According to Judy Bloom. However, there is no book with that title. The title might have bee in reference to the fact that this books were such a staple for girls growing up and reverenced to the point that it began being called that way. There is a discussion about it here: http://www.bookclubforum.co.uk/community/index.php?/topic/5203-rory-gilmores-book-list-challenge/page-25
