    Paper Towns | "I’m a Girl and I’m Not Okay"

    17/07/2026 | 1 h 7 min
    “He really John Greened in this one."

    The time has come for another John Green episode, and this time our Patreon subscribers voted for Paper Towns (2008)! This is a book whose cultural significance is based more on the kind of story that it became a symbol of rather than the plot itself. Kellie and Daphne unpack the nuances and accuracy of the "manic pixie dream girl" label for Margo, along with road trips, discussions about metaphors, quirky character traits, and nerds getting kissed by cool girls. I mean, it's first-era John Green. You all know what to expect by now!

    CW: This episode contains multiple mentions of suicide.

    Dungeons & Dystopia: The Sovereign Trials - Episode 1

    15/07/2026 | 1 h 12 min
    It's back. It's bigger. It's better. It's bloodier. The game has changed.

    Dungeons & Dystopia, our YA book-themed Dungeons & Dragons actual play series has returned! This time, Dungeonmaster Colin is taking us through The Sovereign Trials in a game inspired by the world of The Hunger Games. In this episode, you'll meet the tributes and follow them through the high-stakes process of preparing for the Trials. Will our players band together or become instant enemies? How will they perform in their skills evaluations? And are they ready to do what it takes to survive?

    New episodes will drop on the third Wednesday of each month. We hope you enjoy it!

    The Giver Movie | "It's Not Giving" (Sneak Peek)

    "If you're going to destroy my book, at least put Meryl Streep in it."

    It was another very close poll for our movie bonus episode this month, but the 2014 cinematic classic The Giver took the crown. It also took 97 minutes of our lives that we can never get back.

    Kellie and Daphne discuss the film's failure to launch, bizarre choices in adaptation, the confusing creative choices made to fit this into the 2010s YA dystopian film boom, the stock footage, and of course, the Taylor Swift of it all.

    Cinder | "Chekov’s Foot"

    03/07/2026 | 1 h 1 min
    "There ain’t no pumpkin carriage."

    Of all the books left on our list, Cinder by Marissa Meyer (2012) was by far the most requested by listeners. We dive into the fantastical, dystopian world of the Lunar Chronicles with its first installment, a Cinderella retelling with a sci-fi twist. This book has everything: cyborgs, androids, fairytale romance, a wicked stepmother, the plague, classic twists, heartbreaking turns of events, a colony of people on the moon, and lil diva foot come off. We hope it was worth the wait!

    Book trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pXrMAFGWyuE

    Note: Cinder’s surname in the book is Linh with an H, which is sometimes a surname but much more common as a first name in Vietnam.

    Tyra Banks' 2011 epic Modelland is taking the internet by storm, so we're here to tell you everything you need to know. We may be recapping the recaps, but it's still a seriously long story.

    This Patreon-exclusive special episode has everything: a recap, reality TV discussion, the bumpy history of Modelland, and a phone call to Tyra gone wrong (it went SO much longer in real life, you have no idea).

    Did she leave us a mysterious message or did we almost get scammed? Find out now: https://www.patreon.com/RereadingtheRevolution/posts/we-did-not-tyra-161915128/

Su Rereading the Revolution
Whether it was a reaction to the politics of the time or the rapidly approaching end date of the Mayan calendar, the pop-cultural landscape of the early 2010s can be best remembered for one thing: dystopian literature. Join plucky young heroines and podcast hosts Daphne and Kellie as they dive into all of your favorite young adult novels and series from this era as we reread the revolution. We lived through it once and are back to recap, review, and discuss all the best and worst that the world-shifting genre of YA fiction has to offer–the sci-fi, the fantasy, and the supernatural–at least until our society crumbles and we have to survive a brave new world.Follow us on social media at @rereadingtherevolution for updates, and email us at rereadingtherevolution@gmail.com with any comments or episode suggestions!
