Childhood Favorites: Are You There, God? It's Me, Margaret




UNspoiled! Book Club! show

Summary: Hey there, you wonderful people! I'm here with Carey Anne Farrell, the author of the just-released Forward March, and co-host of the podcast You Can Go Your Own YA. Check out her book here! <a href="https://amzn.to/2SLfYyD" rel="noopener">https://amzn.to/2SLfYyD</a> You can find the site for her podcast here goyourownya.com and she even has a music site here! <a href="https://careyfarrell.bandcamp.com/" rel="noopener">https://careyfarrell.bandcamp.com/</a><br>This was a particularly fun one to read because while I have read it several times as a child, I haven't revisited it in a long time, and so much has changed about my perception of things like religion and puberty that it was totally new this time around. I liked comparing my experience to Carey's, too, because she grew up very concerned about getting her period and getting boobs, while I didn't care about that but had a ton of pressure on me regarding religion. <br>I hope that you all enjoy the episode, and I will see you next time with The Phantom Tollbooth!
