Recs if you like Ella Minnow Pea: A Novel in Letters...

A list of every book Rory Gilmore is seen reading in the series ‘Gilmore Girls’

Books not included on the list

• various biographies by Winston Churchill

“Oh yes they would.”

Reading is ALWAYS political!

Feel free to recommend your own in the comments (fiction and nonfiction) and let’s create a list of books about people + systems + power !! Would love any recs to diversify this list too, knowledge is power people !

books w/ full names in the title (mostly fiction)

Books that play with the "book" as a medium or are otherwise self-reflexive/meta.

My current criteria for this list are (1) does the book highlight its own textuality consistently or (2) do the metafictional elements add significantly to the themes explored or (3) does the book's use of discourse and form (e.g., narrative situation, layout) significantly differ from the norm?

Make sure to comment your suggestions with a small explanation even if you're not 100 % sure if they fit!

Books written in unconventional and experimental styles and formatting.

Alternatively, these are books I’d recommend to each Dropout cast member if given the opportunity to do so! I’ll be including a legend in the comments to clarify which book goes with each person. I know I’m missing people, so if you have a good suggestion for a book recommendation that goes with someone I haven’t already mentioned, please share!

well, this is all the books read by rory in the gilmore girls tv show.

This list gathers over 300 books mentioned or read on the show so you can sip coffee, order in, and read along with Rory Gilmore and the other Stars Hollow residents.

If we are going to do Qwordy's the Hardest Reading Challenge You'll Ever Do 3.0 - we should probably get some Pagebound badges along the way! I'm specifically going to be adding books from Quests and readalongs that I think matches at least one of these cover prompts: craft, food, motion, biomes/landscapes, animals, weather.

A challenge to read all books mentioned or referenced in the American TV Show, Gilmore Girls. Books are referenced by all characters in the show. The Mojo Collection, dictionaries, instructional books, and travel books will not be included in the list.

Happy reading!

Pieces of fiction with language, linguistics, and communication as themes. I saw some non-fiction lists on this topic, so wanted to add a fiction one as well, as they're really interesting ideas to explore

A collection of the next wave of influential Classics of our generation. These books will become staples in homes and schools contain themes that will always be relevant. Inspired by Pagebound Club Post I made.

The books that have always been there, warning that these things might be coming if we don't change. So pick one up, grab a fridge cigarette, and let it sharpen your rage into something constructive.

Books that ignore the traditional way of telling a story. These books tell their stories in unexpected ways, through letters, transcripts, diaries, documents, text messages, or unconventional layouts.

Amazing books that standalone! This list is made up of books that don’t have sequels, aren’t part of series, just single books that can be read and enjoyed in one go! I’m open to any suggestions about books from any genre!

books with an experimental structure or narrative choices, metafiction, oulipo, postmodernism, etc.

Novels that feature magical correspondence, the magical people who write them, the magical post offices that deliver them, and everything in between.

"a novel written as a series of letters between the fictional characters of a narrative. The term is often extended to cover novels that intersperse other kinds of fictional document with the letters, most commonly diary entries and newspaper clippings, and sometimes considered to include novels composed of documents even if they do not include letters at all. More recently, epistolaries may include electronic documents such as recordings and radio, blog posts, and emails."

Books that inspired Wes Anderson movies or have that same feeling of whimsy, quirkiness and a bit of nostalgia 💛

These are books about dms/emails or books told largely in dm/email/letter format. Recommendations welcomed.
