Editorial Reviews

Product Description
Okay, let's face it. My mom and I are never going to have a "normal" mother-daughter relationship because my mom isn't just my mother, she's my best friend. She would do anything for me, including asking her parents for the tuition money to send me to Chilton, this prestigious prep school that just accepted me. That was probably one of the toughest things she's ever done, although agreeing to weekly dinners in exchange for the loan probably runs a close second. My mom's just miserable at the mere thought of this. But the way I look at it? -- I'd just say life is going to get a lot more interesting.

About the Author
Catherine Clark is the author of Truth or Dairy and Wurst Case Scenario. She lives in Minneapolis, Minnesota, where she's still trying to figure out the new windchill formula.

2.0 out of 5 stars Ok if you like the TV novels, August 9, 2004
I'm not a big fan of TV novels, but I thouhgt I'd give this one a try since I like the show so much. It was about what I was expecting. The stories are told from Rory's point of view. In reading the stories you miss out on a lot of classic Loreli moments (Loreli and her mom; Loreli and Luke) It's basically a summary of what you see on the TV screen, but only Rory's side, so it seems like you're missing half of the story. I like the fast paced dialog on the show, but it seems to lose something trying to read it on the page. This was easy reading. If you need a light hearted book I would suggest this.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fan of the show, July 3, 2002
By Tyler (New York, NY) - See all my reviews
If you miss the witty zingers and snide remarks that Lorelai threw in every episode of Gilmore Girls, this book will enable you to re-live those moments and laugh at those idiosyncratic exchanges between Lorelai and Rory. The book does a good job of condensing half a TV season into 150 pages without sacrificing key points of the show. The story in the book is told from the point of view of Rory. The adaption does a good job of detailing Rory's inner thoughts on her mother, school, boyfriend, and grandparents -- thoughts that were absent on the TV show. All in all, this book is a fun read for the summer.

5.0 out of 5 stars More on The Gilmore Girls, January 2, 2005
The first book in the Gilmore Girls book series, it is an excellent tie-in to the well-written and smart show. In the show, you get the snappy dialogue, as well as the cozy scenery. In this book, you get the inner thoughts and backstory of the town and more of each character. If you enjoy the show, you can further your viewing enjoyment by reading these tie-in books. This one in particular will introduce you to the characters if you are new to the show or would like more background. Recommended along with other teen series books such as Charmed, Smallville, Queen B Superheroine, and 7th Heaven.
