"Kent is rich! It’s not like he can’t afford a belt!" We asked our patrons to vote on a contemporary novel for this episode, and Lauren Oliver's Before I Fall took the win. Kellie and Daphne lead the bumpy journey through this shocking, chaotic, and sometimes heartfelt time-loop novel about a teenage girl reliving the last day of her life and maybe finding redemption. We share some of our own high school experiences and a lot of strong opinions along the way. Try not to judge. Remember that we're the same, you and me.

Red Queen | "Brotherly Love Triangle"

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!
