Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret

Reader reviewed by Joey S.

Before reading this book as a pre-teen, I had heard a bit about it, the plot line. I knew that some of it was about the main character starting puberty, and that made me sort of nervous and avoid reading it, since puberty was such a taboo thing to talk or read about in my group of friends, and since I hadn't started it! But, eventually, I did get to opening the pages of that book and getting a bit caught in it, and well, I managed to read through the whole thing without flinching. It was quite an easy reader, I read it within a day or so. Definitely NOT book for boys, unless of course, they are interested in reading about female growth and maturity. NOT one of my favorite books, but it did catch my attention for a while. One thumb half way up!
