Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret. (2023) Official Trailer - Rachel McAdams

The nostalgia 🙌🏾 and when they said the infamous “We must, we must, we must increase our bust” 🤣 can’t wait for this

Not me getting a midlife crisis realizing suddenly watching this, I'm not the girl in the book now I'm just the mom trying to keep it all together while my daughter starts figuring out life and I'm freaking out..send help

My mom unfortunaely passed away from brain cancer last year but I disctinctly remember her excitedly buying me this book and having me read when I was a kid in the 2000s just as she did in the 70s. I know we would be watching this together if she was still here, so I'm sure I will for her when this comes out.

I am now 60 years old. I was 8 or 9 when this book came out and it was so unlike anything else out at the time. No other book talked about periods and all the other important things we girls would go through. Then, when I was in high school, Judy Blume wrote Forever and it changed how I felt about boys/dating as a teen. Loved that movie with Stephanie Zimbalist and so glad they are FINALLY making this movie, and like a lot of you so glad they are keeping the 1970s setting.

As a black girl born in the 70s, I was an outcast sometimes because I loved to read. Beverly Clearly, Judy Blume, and Encyclopedia Brown was everything to me. Books kept me out of the bad elements around me.

She's so talented

I remember my fifth grade teacher reading this book aloud in class. We all got excited when it was “story time.” She gave that book life.😊

I read this book SO many times in my teens... It kept me sane during the weirdest point in my life!! And Rachel McAdams is in it as a bonus!! ❤️❤️❤️

I picked up this book in the fifth grade. I had read all the "Fudge" books by Judy Bloom so I just naturally picked up the next one. The confusion on one girls face in my class as to why I (a boy) was reading this book about a girl getting her period (unbeknownst to me) was hilarious. As I am reading I get to THE part and went to my mother and asked, "what's a period?" Being the kind and gentle woman that she was told me all about puberty and even bought me a book on it. That was quite the education day.

This Judy Blume book resonated so loudly w me. I was a late “blumer” and everyone else got all of their changes in elementary. I didn’t until Jr High. I stuffed, lied bc I felt so abnormal! Lol! I’m now 53, menopausal & ended up getting a breast augmentation. Now, for a young girl who badly wanted to start her cycle, mine has finally ceased 5 yrs ago! And, for wanting breasts that were larger, I wish I could have them removed. We all go through seasons & cycles. It’s odd how we end up abhorring the very things we thought we wanted so desperately. Someone should write a sequel for all of us “Blumers” who are now menopausal:)

The movie I’ve been waiting on for 40+ years! This book was a right of passage. Judy Blume was my childhood ❤️

The scene towards the end with the male cashier reminds me of the first time I purchased a bra on my own. Out of all the registers in the store only one was open and operated by a male cashier who looked like he was around my age. I had a bunch of sets I had found on a clearance rack for like $2+ each and accepted that if I wanted them I would have to go to that cashier. So I plopped the items up on the counter pretending to busy myself with something just wanting to cash out and the dude was like "oh, that's a really good deal". Ha ha ha. Looking back on it all these years later I'm like "I wish I would have known then what I known now", because me these days would have just totally started making conversation like "yeah, for that price I might as well stock up on a few", or something like that. All that unnecessary shame.

I lost track of how many times I read this book while growing up in the 70s. It’s amazing that it’s taken this long for it to be made into a movie!

I remember (many moons ago) when my cycle started... My aunt sent me a care package with a training bra, a box of pads, a box of chocolates, and this book... When my daughter started her period, I did the same for her... I can't wait to go see this with my sister, my daughter, and my best friend... ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I'm so glad Rachel McAdams is a part of this!! Love her and this book so much!!

I'm honestly surprised that a movie version of this book doesn't already exist. But I guess it's time. LOL I'm here for it. I remember reading this in fifth grade. Such a good book for young girls to read and realize that all the weirdness they are going through is normal. It will definitely be a good film viewing for today's middle schoolers and for all the millennials, Xillennials and gen-Xers who grew up with the book.

I think every girl I knew in the 70’s read this book. It was a must have. I’m now nearing 60 and I’m so glad they finally made this into a movie.

Nobody talked about growing up as realistically in books for kids like Judy Blume did. It didn’t matter to me that it was about a girl’s rite of passage, I still read that book a few times, and I’m very happy they kept this movie set in the same time period in which the book was written. I’m excited to see this, as I can’t believe it has taken THIS long to get it made into a movie.

With everything going crazy in the world, it is such a true delight to see this wonderful book made into a movie. What a wonderful thing to look forward to. Cannot wait to see this!

Judy Blume’s book got me through so much back in the 80s lol “We must, we must, we must increase our bust!”
