Talking As Fast As I Can: From Gilmore Girls to Gilmore Girls, and Everything in Between by Lauren Graham
First off, I don’t rate memoirs. It feels weird, like putting a number on someone’s actual life. Memoirs are them—their story, their heart—and not every person who writes a memoir is a writer. But that’s not the point.
Now, let’s talk about this book. I’m a die-hard Gilmore Girls fan—my number one favorite show of all time (yes, I know, not every scene aged perfectly, but it still holds a special place in my heart). When this book came out, it felt like a gift: one more moment of Gilmore Girls magic wrapped in nostalgia.
Reading it was like Lorelai Gilmore herself grabbed a pen and decided to write a memoir instead of Lauren Graham. It’s chaotic, heartfelt, funny, and full of those delightful tangents that make you think, Wait, how did we get here? It’s not just a book; it’s like sitting on at the counter at Lukes with Lorelai, drinking coffee, and talking life.
For anyone who’s ever loved Stars Hollow, this is a must-read. It’ll never replace the show, but it gives you just enough of that warm, familiar feeling to make you want to go back for a rewatch.
