This is literally Lauren Graham word vomiting (I don't mean that in a bad way). I would listen to Lauren Graham read off her grocery list because she's that funny.
I find Lauren to be a sharp-witted and charismatic person so I could listen to her talk all day, but I kind of hoped for something more in-depth. A lot of the stuff she talks about in relation to being on TV you can probably find with a simple Google search. She does go more in-depth with her childhood though.
It ends somewhat bitter-sweet. Probably because the ending of Year in the Life is bittersweet. She ends the book thanking her BLUE COAT. It's somewhat repetitive in some places, but again... word vomit.

I got oddly emotional at the end of this book! Lauren Graham seems like such a genuine and positive person that when she wrote about being emotional I had to be emotional with her Haha. Also...was this a hint towards more Gilmore girl at the end? DON'T TEASE ME LAUREN. Overall this was a lovely and fast little memoir, exactly how I wanted it to be. If you are a fan of Lauren of Gilmore Girls you absolutely need to give this one a go.

Omigod! I loved Lorelei Gilmore and now I love Lauren Graham! The Gilmore Girls was amazing and created for LG! Love this book so much. Maybe it's because LG and I share many philosophies in life. This is a must read if you loved GG and/or LG. Wait until you get to the Old Lady Jackson part - so lovely and sweet and kind of old fashioned! I love OLJ! I listened to the audiobook and I wouldn't have done it any other way! This book has to be experienced!

The amount of pages dedicated to different phases of her life and career is very uneven. A good chunk of the narrative feels like stalling and filler. The later quarter of the book is about the Netflix reboot but it reads more like a short diary excerpt lacking much in humor and reflection. Maybe focusing entirely on "A Year in the Life" would've made for a more consistent narrative.
