• I Am Number Four | "Evil Man Vibes" 22.05.2026 1ชม. 13นาที

  "I believe that you are an alien and also I love you."We had our Patrons vote on a selection of our most-requested dystopian and sci-fi books, and I Am Number Four (2010) by Pittacus Lore (allegedly...) won by a landslide. It's your typical fish-out-of-water story about the new boy in town trying his best to fit in and survive the semester with the help of the prettiest girl in school, an oddball best friend, and an unusually smart dog. But this teenager has a big secret...he's an alien. As it turns out, John wasn't the only one with something to hide.Follow us on social media @rereadingtherevolution for updates and bonus content!

  UNLOCK THE FULL EPISODE BY SUBSCRIBING TO OUR PATREON AT PATREON.COM/REREADINGTHEREVOLUTION"Those two henchmen had more chemistry between them than any other characters."Many of very same people who anxiously awaited this movie in 2013 have anxiously awaited this episode thirteen years later. Hopefully that's the only thing they have in common. We're joined once again by Mara and Katie to discuss the City of Bones film adaptation. We'll cover the cast (in extreme details), the critical response, and the film's legacy among fans.Follow us on social media @rereadingtherevolution for updates and bonus content! Hosted on Acast.

  "One thing about our Bella is that she loves to give up."Kellie, Daphne, and special guest Hannah Lisa Lohr are back with the second half (some would even say the exciting half) of Stephenie Meyer's New Moon (2009)! We pick up where we left off to follow Bella as she learns Jacob’s secret, engages in some more dangerous recreational activities, and makes some new friends on her big trip to Italy. Will Edward and Bella be reunited? Plus, we discuss the real Quileute Tribe's history and culture in more detail.Native Storytelling Festival: The Real Story of the Quileute Wolves: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hmfbQRclFf8&t=2553sOriginal New Moon Epilogue: https://web.archive.org/web/20110623072037/http://www.stepheniemeyer.com/pdf/nm_outtakes_jacob.pdfQuileute ResourcesQuileute Nation official website: https://quileutenation.org/Learn about and donate to the Move to Higher Ground Project: https://mthg.org/get-involved/Follow Hannah!Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hannahlisalohr/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@hannahlisalohrYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@HannahLisaLohrFollow us on social media @rereadingtherevolution for updates and bonus content!

• New Moon Pt. 1 | "Bring Back My Cullens" 24.04.2026 1ชม. 10นาที

  “Stephenie Meyer almost never hits for me. But when she does hit, it’s…like transcendental.”We’ve made you wait long enough for us to read New Moon (2009), hopefully we made it worthwhile by coming back with two episodes on the second book in the Twilight series. Our resident Twilight expert, Hannah Lisa Lohr, is back for both! Whether you love or hate Stephenie Meyer’s vampire romance novels, their cultural impact is undeniable. And this one has werewolves.Quileute ResourcesQuileute Nation official website: https://quileutenation.org/Learn about and donate to the Move to Higher Ground Project: https://mthg.org/get-involved/Follow Hannah!Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hannahlisalohr/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@hannahlisalohrYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@HannahLisaLohrFollow us on social media @rereadingtherevolution for updates and bonus content!

  We've reached the epic conclusion of our three-part Dusk real-play D&D series! This episode sees our crew of vampires, werewolves, and one extraordinarily normal girl crashing a very meta interdimensional story convention and taking on a heroic final battle. We're met with several familiar faces, including a young author who bears a slight resemblance to (but definitely isn't) someone you may have heard of. Will this motley crew of Spoons residents save Hammy--and Mirabel's grade--in time?Follow us on social media @rereadingtherevolution for updates and bonus content! Hosted on Acast.

  "I mean, when you're trapped in a box in the dark with three other boys, what else are you gonna talk about?"After two years of you asking for it, we finally took on Neal Shusterman's beloved and disturbing 2007 dystopian novel, Unwind. Kellie and Daphne are joined by longtime Unwind fan and our good friend, Lin, to discuss the book's real-life inspirations, political resonance, and shocking, frenetic plot. This book tackles several complex and emotionally charged issues alongside your typical YA hijinks and teenage drama, and we try to strike that balance in this episode as well.Links:Neal Shusterman Shelf Awareness Interview: https://www.shelf-awareness.com/sar-issue.html?issue=1149#m20670BBC News Bulletin: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/6171083.stmAdditional Reading on Organ Memory: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0306987719307145https://www.mdpi.com/2673-3943/5/1/2https://www.mcgill.ca/oss/article/medical-pseudoscience/donors-organ-donors-personality-lets-approach-sensiblyNational Marrow Donor Program (US): https://www.nmdp.org/get-involved/join-the-registryEpisode Suggestions Form: forms.gle/x2F2V73N6G4DwnmA9 Hosted on Acast.

Kellie and Daphne are rejoined by our friend and fellow Maze Runner reader Colin to discuss all three of Wes Ball's Maze Runner movies. Are they good? Are they bad? Do they defy categorization?

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.
