Rereading the Revolution

UNLOCK THE FULL EPISODE BY SUBSCRIBING TO OUR PATREON AT PATREON.COM/REREADINGTHEREVOLUTION"The props department was bedazzling those backstage."Kellie, Daphne, and resident Selection expert Katie reunite to discuss BOTH unaired Selection pilots for CW. Between the uninspired 2012 pilot and truly incredible 2013 second attempt, they cover the full entertainment spectrum in just an hour. It's like the opposite of "How Did This Get Made?" where we uncover just why The Selection show never did.

“Why was that a detail?"We’ve read a few contemporary books on this show, but none that made us self-reflect on the nature of hosting a fan podcast and experiencing the other side of fandom through our relationships with our listeners as much as Rainbow Rowell’s Fangirl (2013).Just kidding. This book is crazy! Daphne and Kellie recap the college coming-of-age story and talk fanfic, young love, and one major historic event in particular in this episode.

“This book is basically Citizen Kane.”Happy Halloween! We read Ransom Riggs’ fantastical 2013 novel/found photography collection, Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children, to celebrate. It’s not nearly as haunting as we remember—at least, not in terms of ghosts and ghouls. Plus, Kellie finally finished the Delirium series! Stick around until the end to hear her recap the final book of the trilogy, Requiem, for Daphne.Timestamps:Miss Peregrine Recap 10:10Requiem Recap 48:50Bog cheese articles, as promised, except it’s not cheese, it’s butter.

“You just wake up one day and you’re really good at math, and suddenly you’re being taken from your home.”We're back with another dystopian novel and this one is...actually good? Our hosts are rejoined by special guest Katie to discuss Alexandra Bracken’s The Darkest Minds (2012). As we hit the road with Ruby and company, Daphne and Katie tell Kellie about the series, Katie and Kellie teach Daphne more Southern cultural nuances, and everyone in the room, including the cat, gets really excited about Harris Dickinson.

"Collapsed lung, ruptured spleen, internal bleeding, brain contusions, broken ribs, and leg and face abrasions requiring skin grafts."Kellie and Daphne deviate from their usual fare this week to discuss Gayle Forman's acclaimed novel, If I Stay (2009), a book that caused us physical reactions from heaving sobs to incapacitating laughter. Despite the somber subject matter, we still manage to have fun discussing punk rock, Yo-Yo Ma, Oregon culture, ghost rules, and more.

"Move a muscle, change a thought."Given the public's opinion on this movie, you're probably expecting us to rag on it for half an hour straight...but we like to keep you on your toes! We may be saying goodbye to this series for now, but the film proves that time is a flat circle, so who knows what's to come.

“That seems to happen a lot in this genre.”Kellie, Daphne, and special guest Mara embark on a very exciting journey into the world of Kass Morgan’s The 100 (2013). We cover the book, CW series, fandom, controversies, and more in this episode in a manner befitting its high drama. Apologies (or you’re welcome, depending on who we ask) in advance for how often Lost comes up in this one…again.Follow us on social media @rereadingtherevolution for updates and behind-the-scenes details!

“He had Teen Wolf hair and I couldn’t look past that.”Surprise! We return with another bonus episode, this time on the film adaptation of The Maze Runner (2014). We share behind-the-scenes details and our hot takes on this decade-old movie, as well as addressing the recent drama on our social media. You'll have to listen to find out what that’s about!Follow us on social media @rereadingtherevolution for updates and behind-the-scenes details!
