Talking as Fast as I Can: From Gilmore Girls to Gilmore Girls

Talking as Fast as I Can: From Gilmore Girls to Gilmore Girls (and Everything in Between)

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER â€¢ In this collection of personal essays, the beloved star of Gilmore Girls and Parenthood reveals stories about life, love, and working as a woman in Hollywoodâ€”along with behind-the-scenes dispatches from the set of the new Gilmore Girls, where she plays the fast-talking Lorelai Gilmore once again.

In Talking as Fast as I Can, Lauren Graham hits pause for a moment and looks back on her life, sharing laugh-out-loud stories about growing up, starting out as an actress, and, years later, sitting in her trailer on the Parenthood set and asking herself, â€œDid you, um, make it?â€ She opens up about the challenges of being single in Hollywood (â€œStrangers were worried about me; thatâ€™s how long I was single!â€), the time she was asked to audition her butt for a role, and her experience being a judge on Project Runway (â€œItâ€™s like I had a fashion-induced blackoutâ€).

In â€œWhat It Was Like, Part One,â€ Graham sits down for an epic Gilmore Girls marathon and reflects on being cast as the fast-talking Lorelai Gilmore. The essay â€œWhat It Was Like, Part Twoâ€ reveals how it felt to pick up the role again nine years later, and what doing so has meant to her.

Some more things you will learn about Lauren: She once tried to go vegan just to bond with Ellen DeGeneres, sheâ€™s aware that meeting guys at awards shows has its pitfalls (â€œIf youâ€™re meeting someone for the first time after three hours of hair, makeup, and styling, youâ€™ve already set the bar too highâ€), and sheâ€™s a card-carrying REI shopper (â€œMy bungee cords now earn points!â€).

Including photos and excerpts from the diary Graham kept during the filming of the recent Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life, this book is like a cozy night in, catching up with your best friend, laughing and swapping stories, andâ€”of courseâ€”talking as fast as you can.
