We are two lifelong friends who are nostalgic to a fault. In this podcast we return to a simpler time and re-read the books we loved as children. Rainbow Magic, Babysitters Club, American Girl, were they really as great as we remember?
In this episode we dive into the Fairy Haven books. Unlike a regular episode, we're going to give a longer update on what we've been up to and why it's been so long since we've put out an episode. We discuss fairies, the story of Neverland, and the time Rosie (kind of) met Gail Carson Levine. This is a preview episode before we jump into reading the Disney Fairies books, so be sure to stay tuned for that! If you have any questions or suggestions, please reach out to us at @readitagainpodcast on Instagram or readitagainpodcast@gmail.com.
In this episode we read Goddess Girls “Athena the Brain” by Joan Holub and Suzanne Williams. Goddess Girls is a retelling of Greek Mythology, EXCEPT all the gods and goddesses are in Jr high. The book centers around 12 year old Athena, who finds out she is a goddess and begins her enrollment at Mt Olympus Academy. We also have our first special guest in this episode! Amateur mythology enthusiast, Miles (aka Audrey's little brother) comes on the show to discuss the actual stories behind these books. We had a blast recording this episode and we hope you enjoy!

In this episode we read “Junie B. Jones and the Yucky Blucky Fruitcake” by Barbara Park. We discuss bad reviews, poor grammar, and the ethics of carnival clowns. Also, why we are both afraid to say “shut up.”
Greetings! We are back! In episode two we are re-reading Dinosaurs Before Dark by Mary Pope Osborne, book one in the Magic Treehouse series. Will the book still hold up for us, or will we be disappointed? Tune in for our book review, along with just a few stories about our pet chickens.
In this episode we discuss Ruby the Red Fairy, number one in the Rainbow Magic Series. We talk about the UK, slime, and Oberon, the lesbian fairy queen.
