"ARE YOU THERE GOD? IT’S ME, MARGARET stands out as a triumph in the coming-of-age subgenre. Its refusal to shy away from sensitive subject matters, coupled with brilliant performances and a meticulously crafted script, results in a story that not only entertains with astute humor but also resonates on a deeply personal level.

It's a testament to Kelly Fremon Craig's commitment to authenticity and storytelling that transcends the boundaries of age and gender. A poignant, relatable portrayal of the complexities of adolescence, leaving a lasting impact on its audience.“
