How many books have you read on the Rory Gilmore List? Should I do this again?

It wasn't in a book but I did hear a fantastic quote yesterday.
" "No." Is a complete sentence."

I am form Germany and Kafkas work is very important here. You will definitely read something by him in school here in Germany. (Kafka did write his stories in German.) We even have a word that is named after him ( “Kafkaesk”) which is used if you want to describe situations that are absurd or spooky mostly in the context of bureaucracy or law enforcement which both are often themes that he criticizes in his book. ( “the trial” is a good example and you should read this one because it is most famous story. It’s so good !!)
Like you discovered the relationship to his father was estranged and difficult. His father was big influence so The Metamorphosis is definitely autobiographical like most of his work are.
Interesting fact: Kafka died young (he had an illness) and he told his good friend that he should destroy all his work and not publish it because he thought it was not good enough. His friend published it anyway because he believed that he was wrong. Now he is one of the most famous author in Germany and around the world.

Kind of off topic but I love that you put your lipstick in the description box because I absolutely needed to know 😆 it’s a stunning color on you!

NGL as someone who gets overly attsched emotionally to inanimate objects, the whole "thank the item and let ot go" thing helped me much when i watched the Marie Kondo special and had such a clear out of things i didnt wear or use but "couldn't" let go of because i felt bad to give away.

I've been knitting the Rory sweater for the past few weeks and I was literally on the last stitches when you said you wanted it too :')

[tatianasaugar]

Oh dear, this made my day! do a Part 2 next month, Emily 😍

[shelbymiller]

So happy you liked The Awakening. It’s such an underrated classic!!

[ritaalmeida]

I would love a video of you talking about your favourite shows/movies.
Recommendation: My Lady Jane
PS: the baby looks more like Clawdia than her brothers 🥰

[roserobb]

Never watched/interested in watching Gilmore Girls, but I've apparently read 92 of the ones she did.

Of the books you picked up but didn't read, I'd most highly recommend Slaughterhouse Five (one of my favorite books of all time), but it does partially take place within the context of WWII so it may not be what you're wanting to read right now. I also love Oryx and Crake, as well as Middlesex, and would recommend them both!

I JUST CLICKED BUT HELL I'M SO EXCITED FOR THIS VIDEOOOO

[Shelf_Improvement]

I recommend you re-read To Kill a Mockingbird. I think you'll really enjoy it

[ottaviademarchi]

I'm team Jess to and you are right about him! He was the best for me!

[deathbyduckie]

Oryx and Crake is one of my favourite Margaret Atwood books. I couldn't get through the whole series (will be trying again at some point) but the first one is really interesting.

[Shellyish]

I love this video. I’m team Jess and my husband is team Logan. Though we agree that the best character is Emily G, hands down. I want to do my own version of this video. Thank you Emily! Maybe all the great people are named Emily.

I've managed to read 171/339 as I've focused very heavily on this lost the last year! ❤
