[Python] Use a list of values to select rows from a Pandas dataframe

Let’s say I have the following Pandas dataframe:

df = DataFrame({'A': [5,6,3,4], 'B': [1,2,3,5]})
df

A B
0 5 1
1 6 2
2 3 3
3 4 5


I can subset based on a specific value:

x = df[df['A'] == 3]
x

A B
2 3 3


But how can I subset based on a list of values? - something like this:

list_of_values = [3, 6]

y = df[df['A'] in list_of_values]


To get:

A B
1 6 2
2 3 3
