‘Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret’ now has a release date!

One thing we can all agree on, at least the ladies who read this book…it’s an AMAZING BOOK!!

Lionsgate announced on Monday that it has set the upcoming film adaptation of Judy Blume’s “Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret” for release on September 16.

Mark that down!  September 16th!

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.

It’s going to be good!
