Season 6 Reading Themes

Themes
Written By Jen Vermeulen

We’re so excited to read Carry On by Rainbow Rowell for season 6. As is the case with The Raven Boys, we plan to treat the whole Simon Snow trilogy as sacred, but we won’t be reading them consecutively.

Our foundational theme this season is expectations, and this will be the theme for the whole trilogy. Check out the breakdown of the weekly themes below and read along with us! Our copies are the 2021 US hardback editions, from the box set.

We would love to hear from you as you read these books! Because we love them! Let us know your thoughts at hello@marginaliapod.com. We’re also on Instagram as @marginaliapod.
