Gilmore Girls Vibes: A Love Letter to Coffee & Books


Few things pair as perfectly as a good book and a cup of coffee. If you're a fan of Gilmore Girls, you know this pairing is woven into the very fabric of Stars Hollow life. Who wouldn't want to spend an afternoon at Luke's Diner, sipping coffee and getting lost in a book? This love letter celebrates that iconic duo and offers you a guide to creating your own Gilmore-inspired experience at home.


Fun Fact

Did you know the Gilmore Girls consumed over 500 cups of coffee throughout the series? It's no wonder they're considered caffeine royalty! Just like Lorelai and Rory, many of us can’t resist the allure of a steaming cup of joe and an engrossing read.


Book Suggestions

For those eager to capture the Gilmore magic, here are some fast-paced, witty books that Rory herself might have read, paired with a coffee roast that matches the energy of these reads:

  • "The Bell Jar" by Sylvia Plath - Pair with a Medium Roast. The introspective narrative and poetic writing style complement a balanced brew.

  • "Catcher in the Rye" by J.D. Salinger - Choose a Medium Dark Roast to mirror Holden Caulfield’s complex, sometimes moody character.

  • "Pride and Prejudice" by Jane Austen - Enjoy with a Medium Dark Roast, which aligns with the timeless charm and romance of Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. Darcy.

  • "To Kill a Mockingbird" by Harper Lee - A Light Medium Roast suits the novel’s gentle yet profound storytelling—a true classic.


Recreate Your Own Gilmore-Inspired Binge

Want to bring that Gilmore Girls charm to your home? Here’s how to do it:

  1. Set the Scene: Find a cozy spot, perhaps akin to your own private "Luke’s Diner" at home. Light a candle, grab a warm blanket, and create the perfect reading nook.

  2. Brew the Perfect Cup: Select a coffee from CoffeeBooks that pairs well with your chosen book. Their expertly curated pairings will enrich your reading experience.
