Gilmore Girls Required Reading
IN PROGRESS AS OF MAY 2026 (I'm rewatching it and trying to put everything in chronological order of the show T.T) - Every single book directly mentioned, referenced in a joke, or clearly seen in the show Gilmore Girls, because I'm obsessed and challenging myself to read them all. I'm also including if they mentioned a movie that's based on a book.
Literature Reading List
Most commonly taught books from English departments in English majors. Basically, english literature canon. Not complete. From Substack: https://open.substack.com/pub/adamgagewalker/p/the-complete-english-literature-reading?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android&r=1xyg4b
The Songwriter’s Dead
Tuomas Holopainen is a songwriter, composer and co-founder of the Finnish symphonic metal band Nightwish. I think Tuomas is one of the best songwriters of our times. His songwriting is heavily inspired by literature and poetry, and these are a few of the books that inspired his songs and albums. The name of the list is a reference to a lyrics from a song he wrote The Poet and the Pendulum by Nightwish, one of my all-time favorites.
