For season four of Marginalia Pod, we read Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell. Our main theme is identity, with each week also carrying a secondary theme.
We’re at the end of our Fangirl journey and we can’t quite believe it! We finish things off by reading chapters 37-38 through the theme of fame.
We’re both “creatives” so we really get stuck into the theme of creation this week as we unpack chapters 33-36 of Fangirl. How do we create? What does it meant to be a creator? And isn’t trying to understand your existence a kind of creation too?
It’s a bumper episode as we have a very special guest this week! It’s a heady thing when you’re really into someone, and we attempt to unpack all the feelings that come from young love - and love in general, including the love you have for your friends and family.
It seems more than ever we’re being called to be kind, so it’s a good time to reflect on what that means and how we can infuse more of it into our lives. We unpack that as we read chapters 25-28 of Fangirl.
How do you stay open to new ideas, and people, and relationships, even when it means maybe getting hurt? We get into it as we read chapters 21-24 this week.
We’re reading chapters 17-20 of Fangirl through the theme of disillusionment. We are particularly unimpressed with Nick this week!
Heartbreak City, Population: Us. That’s our theme this week as we read chapters 13-16 of Fangirl.
This week we’re reading chapters 9-12 of Fangirl through the theme of anxiety. Why am I anxious??
Well, I guess this is growing up. Yep that’s our theme this week as we read chapters 5-8 of Fangirl. Lot of growing pains to work through!
Time for a new season! We’re super excited to crack into our season 4 text, Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell, through the overarching theme of identity.
