Lauren Graham and Amy Sherman-Palladino are heading back to Stars Hollow — at least on the page.
The star and creator of Gilmore Girls are collaborating on a book about the beloved series. Celadon Books, a division of Macmillan, has acquired the book and will publish it in fall 2027.
The book will feature a look back at the beloved WB/CW dramedy’s production and explore how Gilmore Girls became a fixture in pop culture (including an annual viewing bump on Netflix in the fall). Graham and Sherman-Palladino share stories from the set that they haven’t told publicly before and offer insight into their creative partnership. The announcement of the book comes on the heels of the show marking the 25th anniversary of its premiere in October 2000.
“This is THE book Gilmore Girls fans have been waiting for — and that is saying a lot,” Celadon Books and Flatiron Books president and publisher Deb Futter said in a statement. “Lauren and Amy are television legends and their stories, which have not been shared before, are what TV lore is made of.”
Graham has previously written three nonfiction books and the novel Someday, Someday, Maybe. Sherman-Palladino recently penned the foreword to Kelly Bishop’s memoir The Third Gilmore Girl.
“I’m thrilled to collaborate with Amy to bring readers all our stories of the special years we spent filming Gilmore Girls, the first and second time,” said Graham.
Added Sherman-Palladino, “I will jump at any chance to collaborate with Lauren Graham. On anything. Be it a boozy broads lunch at Joe Allen’s, or writing an actual book, the answer will always be ‘yes.’ I find myself wanting to be permanently linked to her side forever. Not sure it’s healthy, for either of us, but it’s just the reality of the situation.”
Futter acquired the book for Celadon. The deal was brokered by Cait Hoyt, Mollie Glick and Esther Newberg at CAA.
