The Gilmore Girls

When I decided to start a blog I had many discussions with myself about doing something different. Being a Bibliophile from birth I knew that on my bucket list was to no just do a reading challenge not just on Good Books where you read x number of books a year I wanted to do something big. So upon better thoughts, I knew exactly what I would do. I would tackle the Rory Gilmore reading challenge. For those who have zero idea who Rory Gilmore is, Lorelai Leigh "Rory" Gilmore is a fictional character from the WB/CW television series Gilmore Girls played by Alexis Bledel. She first appeared in the pilot episode of the series on October 5, 2000, and appeared in every episode until the series finale on May 15, 2007. Bledel's performance throughout the series' run earned her a Young Artist Award, a Family Television Award, and two Teen Choice Awards. She also received nominations for an ALMA Award, a Satellite Award, and a Saturn Award. Rory is the only daughter of Lorelai Gilmore and the first-born daughter of Christopher Hayden. She was born October 8, 1984, in Hartford, Connecticut, at 4:03am. Every year at that exact time, Lorelai wakes Rory up to tell her the story of her birth. Because Lorelai became pregnant with Rory when she was only sixteen, the two are more like friends than mother and daughter. Rory shares her mother's taste in junk food, coffee, movies, music, and much more. She spent her first months living with her mother at her grandparent's mansion until her mother ran away. The rest of her childhood she spent in the Independence Inn in Stars Hollow where her mother worked originally as a maid. The two lived in the potting shed behind the inn where Jackson's cousin Rune lived in later seasons. Eventually, Lorelai was able to buy a nice house where Rory spent her adolescent years. Rory did not have much contact with her grandparents until she started to attend Chilton, which Lorelai preferred.

Rory spends her life wrapped in books and drinks a lot of coffee which I completely relate to both. There are approximately 339 books mentioned in the series and I have decided to read and review them all. I have zero ideas how long this will take but I am excited to get started. 

 The first book on the list is 1984(George Orwell). I have found the book on planet ebook for a free download. I hope to have my first review up and running within a few weeks. I am excited to try this.
