Customer Reviews

Nice book!

As a writer, I really enjoyed each of the essays and the breakdown of characters, plot lines, the town, the businesses and relationships. It also possibly provides a new perspective on things too, at least for me.

This book is fantastic!

Coffee at Lukes: An Unauthorized Gilmore Girls Gabfest is a PHENOMENAL book. The change of pace from essay to essay, author to author is fantastic. It definately helps me get my "Gilmore Girls-fix" when I can't be watching the show... I've read this book from cover to cover...many times. I love the essay "Reading, Rory, and Relationships". This book is amazing. I definately recommend it to any fan of the show! =P

Better than expected

I have only read the two first chapters but I had a very great impression when I got it... I expected some pieces of paper together but it's a book! a complete book with about 200 pages! It's a lot of comments about different issues about Gilmore Girls written by GG fans. Sometimes you can disagree with their oppinion or points of view but it's always refreshing because it makes you remember very good moments of GG and re-live them. And it's always written from the point of view of someone that loves the serial as much as you do. So if you really like GG and you want to remember the better moments now that you watched until the last episode... if you want more GG!! buy this item :-) Good quality.

(Semi-)Scholarly Analysis of Star's Hollow

I loved reading the essays, which analyzed everything from Emily (wow, most psychiatrists wouldn't take on that job) to the massive amounts of food consumed on the show. While I disagreed with the point made by a few of the essays, I think that the book points out the many subtleties that make Gilmore Girls a fan classic. Did you ever notice the significance of Lorelai becoming a maid after leaving home? Emily fires maids every day, doesn't consider them human, and in season 6 calls them criminals who get their children to rob you. She said that to Rory, the child of a former maid. Little gems like that make this book a must-read. Plus, it gives you an excuse to break out the much-watched DVDs again.
