Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret provides invaluable lessons on womanhood that deserve to be treasured, and insight on the core moments of both religious and secular upbringings that contrary factions seldom get to see.

A pleasant, sweet, and sincere story that questions religions and reflects on the changing processes of a pre-adolescent girl in a natural and humorous way. [Full Review in Spanish]

It takes the challenges that young girls and women of all ages face – from the frivolous to the monumental – and treats them with the utmost sincerity and empathy.
