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.

    “Oh my god…they’re running through the desert?”


    Our May patron-voted book is Crossed, the 2011 sequel to Ally Condie's Matched, one of our early iconic episodes, if we do say so ourselves! In this bonus episode, we join Cassia and Ky for an absolutely baffling journey through the Carving on our search for the rebellion.

  • "One Giant Book" | The Host Part 1
    May 9 2025

    "I guess there’s really not that many different alien storylines."


    Stephanie Meyer's 2008 book The Host is a behemoth. Kellie and Daphne take on the first half of the alien invasion story in part one of our first two-episode special. It's unexpected in a lot of ways, not least of which is how much we're enjoying it so far. Will Melanie's human spirit triumph over Wanderer, the soul inside her? Tune in to our next regular episode on May 23 to find out how it all ends!

  • "Blatant Twilight Ripoff" | Hush, Hush
    Apr 25 2025

    "It’s maybe the worst book I’ve ever read in my life."


    Sorry in advance to the Hush, Hush fans, but needless to say, we had some thoughts about Becca Fitzpatrick's 2009 novel. Namely, "why" and "how?" Daphne and Kellie talk fallen angels, nephilim, teen romance, unlikeable characters, terrible worldbuilding, and yes, tacos, in this supernatural episode.
