Gilmore Girls Reading Challenge


Books played a big part in the television show "The Gilmore Girls." Rory was an avid reader. When Rory and Lorelai were going to Europe, Rory wanted to bring 12 books. Mind you, she was carrying everything in a backpack. Recently, a friend sent me a link to an episode-by-episode listing of all of the books seen, read, or mentioned in the series and the idea for a challenge was born. Of course, I didn't really have any idea how many books that actually was.


The challenge will officially run from January 1, 2010 through December 31, 2010. You can begin reading now and anything that you're not more than half way through right now can be counted.
Crossover books from other challenges are allowed. A lot of the books on the list have also been made into movies and those will count as well.

There are three levels of participation:

Emily: Read 5 books from at least two different categories.
Lorelai: Read 10 books from at least three different categories.
Rory: Read 20 books from at least four different categories.


** Hosted by Lisa of Lit and Life


My book choices:
  1. Northanger Abbey
  2. Emma
  3. Jane Eyre- reading right now!
  4. Anna Karenina
  5. Alice's Adventure in Wonderland
  6. Rebecca
  7. The Great Gatsby
  8. Daisy Miller
  9. 1984
  10. House of Sand and Fog
I have no idea if I will complete this or not but it will overlap with other challenges for 2010!!
