11.13.2024 - Life's Short, Talk Fast

Life's Short, Talk Fast by Ann Hood 

Many thanks to NetGalley and WW Norton & Company for gifting me a digital ARC of this collection of essays revolving around The Gilmore Girls, edited by Ann Hood.  All opinions expressed in this review are my own - 4.5 stars!

This is a collection of essays by a diverse group of authors all revolving around this iconic TV show.  I have to admit that when the show first aired in 2000, I had two boys - one just off to college and the other in high school, and my family's TV viewing revolved around Star Trek in all its many forms.  Yet, I still jumped at the opportunity to read this book because first, Ann Hood!  But I found myself so involved in these essays which range from humorous to heartbreaking and everything in between.  Plus the viewpoints were from die-hard fans to those who had never seen it.  The stories show just how uniting and relatable TV can be.  Highly recommended if you are a fan, but the stories are wonderful even if you aren't!
