Rory Gilmore Reading list

Gilmore Girls finns just nu på Svt-play, vilket gör serien tillgänglig för många. Det är en av mina absoluta favoritserier, så jag köpte naturligtvis dvd-boxen för länge sedan. Jag har naturligtvis börjat titta på den på Svt också viket fick mig att tänka på alla böcker Rory läser i serien därav denna listan som jag hittade jag på The Candid Cover. 

Olika listor med vad Rory läser i Gilmore Girls finns lite överallt på nätet och det är lite roligt att jämföra hennes läsning med vad man själv läser. Det kan också vara ett kul ställe att hämta inspiration till vad man kan läsa och det är också lite så jag tänkt göra inför kommande år. Att välja ut ca två-tre böcker för att läsa under året 2025. 

Många av böckerna här känner jag inte ens till och behöver kolla upp. Men jag har grönmarkerat de som redan funnits lite i tankarna och jag funderat på att läsa.
