I'm interested in reading it too now, I wasn't really before but I read a blurb about it in a profile of Scarlett Johannson and it sounds good.

I didn't really see scarlett johanson as nanny when I read the book... but I never agree with the actors they choose..  |

I didn't saw her as nanny also, even though I already knew that she's going to play nanny in the movie. But I like Nicholas Art as Grayer.  |

I'm curious to know who put this list together. I mean someone obviously put some thought into it (which books would Rory have absolutely read? which would she be likely to read? etc..) Was it boss lady Amy Sherman-Palladino herself? The writers/producers of the show collectively? The network? The person who ran the website?
Does anyone know?
Also, when was it originally put up?

Gosh I have no idea, I think I always just assumed it was the network. When I first found the wb Rory's Book Club board it was already up so I couldn't tell you when it appeared |

I don't know either. I never really thought about it. Hopefully, it was somebody who knew enough about Rory to know what books she would read.
