Season 3 Reading Themes

For our third season, we read Strange the Dreamer by Laini Taylor and go on a grand ten week adventure with Lazlo Strange. For reference, our copies are the 2017 hardcover editions.

We again chose an overarching theme for the text, with a secondary theme each week. You can see how the themes break down below if you’d like to read along with us.

We recorded this season in the middle of 2021, but don’t let that stop you from letting us know your thoughts as you listen/read along! We love this book and it is baffling that it doesn’t have a bigger fandom. So please let us know your thoughts at hello@marginaliapod.com - we want to hear from you! You can also find us on Instagram at @marginaliapod.
