If you need a refresher on the book or never read it…“Are You There God? It’s Me Margaret” was published by Blume in 1970 and follows Margaret, a sixth grader going through both the early stages of adolescence and her own questions about religion, having grown up with a Christian mother and Jewish father who did not raise her under either faith. The movie will star Abby Ryder Fortson as Margaret with Rachel McAdams, Kathy Bates and Benny Safdie.
