The Beatles were an English rock band formed in Liverpool in 1960. The core lineup of the band comprised John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr. They are widely regarded as the most influential band in Western popular music and were integral to the development of 1960s counterculture and the recognition of popular music as an art form. Rooted in skiffle, beat and 1950s rock 'n' roll, their sound incorporated elements of classical music and traditional pop in innovative ways. The band also explored music styles ranging from folk and Indian music to psychedelia and hard rock. As pioneers in recording, songwriting and artistic presentation, the Beatles revolutionised many aspects of the music industry and were often publicised as leaders of the era's youth and sociocultural movements.

Led by primary songwriters Lennon and McCartney, the Beatles evolved from Lennon's previous group, the Quarrymen, and built their reputation by playing clubs in Liverpool and Hamburg, Germany, starting in 1960, initially with Stuart Sutcliffe playing bass. The core trio of Lennon, McCartney and Harrison, together since 1958, went through a succession of drummers, including Pete Best, before inviting Starr to join them in 1962. Manager Brian Epstein moulded them into a professional act, and producer George Martin developed their recordings, greatly expanding their domestic success after they signed with EMI and achieved their first hit, "Love Me Do", in late 1962. As their popularity grew into the intense fan frenzy dubbed "Beatlemania", the band acquired the nickname "the Fab Four". Epstein, Martin or other members of the band's entourage were sometimes informally referred

Rory Gilmore from the iconic 2000s series Gilmore Girls is one of TV’s biggest bookworms. Throughout the series and the revival, 408 books are read, with some fans undertaking the Rory Gilmore book challenge. Though the series has ended, Gilmore Girls seems to be a staple of fall, as people cannot get enough of Lorelai and Rory’s witty banter, cozy sweaters, and the beautiful Connecticut autumn leaves. 

Though Rory’s reading list is impressive, there are some titles missing that I believe she would enjoy. Without further ado, here is a list of the top five books I would recommend to Rory Gilmore.

5. 84, Charing Cross Road by Helene Hanff

A short but sweet read, 84, Charing Cross Road is a book I would recommend to any bibliophile. Composed of the real twenty-year correspondence between a freelance writer in New York and a used book dealer in London, 84, Charing Cross Road ultimately is about friendship. Though the two never met in real life and had very different lives, their love of books brought about a rich friendship. 84, Charing Cross Road is full of laughs and tears as Hanff allows readers to peek into her beautiful friendship with Frank Doel. Rory reads several diaries throughout Gilmore Girls, and, as a huge bookworm, 84, Charing Cross Road is a great light read for not only her but any lover of reading.

4. Duneby Frank Herbert

Although Rory was not an avid science fiction reader, I do think that Dune’s intense worldbuilding, politics, and commentary would draw her in. Especially after the success of Dennis Villeneuve’s 2021 movie adaptation, Rory would give in to the hype. 

Dune takes place in a distant future in which humans have colonized outer space and established a feudal system, dependent on the spice trade. For generations, various noble houses have exploited the Freeman of Arrakis for their planet’s spice production.

Sixteen years ago, Gilmore Girls — a show about a mother-daughter duo for the ages — were introduced. Their drama blossomed for six seasons under creator Amy Sherman-Palladino on the WB and then went on for one last season on the CW without Sherman-Palladino at the helm . The drama ended with a satisfying graduation episode (where Rory finished her tenure at Yale) but it wasn’t the ending that the creator always wanted. Now, nine years later, the show’s creator has returned to the series for Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life, a new four-episode season, now available on Netflix.

The show’s four new episodes follow a seasonal pattern. The first one opens in winter and embraces the relationship between the two main characters and the unforgettable town of Stars Hollow. As Lorelai jokes, “the entire town was constructed in a snow globe.” Even in its opening moments, the show reawakens the joy of this wonderful small town and its quirky gang of characters.

Life may have changed dramatically outside of Stars Hollow but the personalities of favorites such as the sarcastic Michel (Yanic Truesdale), resident oddball Kirk (Sean Gunn) and the free-spirited Lane (Keiko Agena) have thankfully remained the same.

The show though feels different considering the real life loss of Edward Herrmann, who played Lorelai’s father Richard. Over these four episodes, the shadow of Richard remains around every corner. In fact, Emily Gilmore (played by the truly marvelous Kelly Bishop) may have the best arc of the characters here as she learns how to live without the love of her life. From de-cluttering in the first episode to her major life changes in the latter ones, Emily stands out as a truly complicated character who wants to move forward while still painfully hanging on to her past.

As for the two main characters, both Lorelai and Rory face a variety of new challenges here, many of which are internal
