Sunrise on the Reaping - Part 1

Join Meggie and Laura for their sit down session of divulging every last thought they possibly have on Kass Morgan's post-apocalyptic The 100 series. They laughed, they cried, they had MANY thoughts on the various characters and their relationships throughout, but now it's time to float away and move to the next one! 

Final Thoughts: The 100 series

It's been over a month since the 100 crash landed on Earth and it's been filled with danger at every turn. With preparations for a peaceful feast with the Earthborns underway it finally seems like everything is going to be okay -- until it isn't! A new threat quickly emerges with fancy white clothes, sedatives, and grenades (surprise! It's a cult!). Join your hosts Meggie and Laura and they discuss the final 100 book. 

The 100 - Rebellion

Laura and Meggie wish they could tell you that The 100: Homecoming is about everyone having a nice big dance on Earth, but unfortunately that's not the case. The remaining dropships have landed on Earth, which is great because Glass can reunite with her friends, but it's much much worse considering her mom just died and Vice Chancellor Rhodes is here to ruin everything the 100 has built so far. Glass takes to the woods while Bellamy, Clarke, and Wells flee to the Earthborns' village and there's danger really at every turn. 

The 100 - Homecoming

Well, well, well it's been 3 weeks since our convicted-felon-teens made their way to Earth and Clarke is fearful of radiation poisoning finally settling in but more importantly she's going to explore her budding relationship with Bellamy, Wells captures and befriends an earth born girl, Glass is not doing so hot up in space, and Meggie and Laura are your hosts ready to talk about it all! 

The 100 - Day 21

Laura and Meggie plunge into YA, We Read It!'s 16th season with Kass Morgan's book series turned CW series: The 100. 

In the future, Earth has become uninhabitable and forced humans to seek reprieve in space. Now, the beloved space station in which they live is running out of resources. The government plots to see if Earth can once again be an option for humanity by sending 100 prisoners (all teens; we will explain why) to test the surface. 

The 100

Catie's life is turned upside down when her and her family leave their life in sunny California behind to go live with family in Utah. Still grappling with the death of her father, Catie yearns to reconnect with her biological mother and culture. Everything changes for her when her coworker Toby offers Mandarin lessons in exchange for her teaching him how to date. 
Tune in for a very special YA, We Read It! Where Meggie and Laura are sitting down the author of First Love Language, Stefany Valentine to talk everything about Catie's roller coaster summer.

First Love Language (Interview w/ Stefany Valentine)

A microphone, a laptop, a YA novel, a notepad... these aren't clues to your next Tobias Hawthorne puzzle, instead it's time once again for Laura and Meggie to bid adieu to their 15th season: The Inheritance Games. The first book graced bookshelves in 2020 and just a few short years later, your hosts dived in and couldn't get enough of the twists, the turns, and talking about the ever present love triangle between Avery, Jameson, and Grayson. Are we satisfied? Is everything really solved? Let's discuss.
