Good morning and happy Saturday, my friend. Well, it looks like we’re getting a short break from the rain, so I’m going grocery shopping in a bit and hopefully will not get drenched! *fingers crossed*
Ya know, I can’t remember the last time I watched a movie in a movie theater; I think it was right before everything shut down, so I’m guessing it was the fall of 2019? Ages ago.
I’m going to have to venture back into a theater soon, though, because this spring one of my favorite books of all time is finally hitting the big screen.
I cannot wait to see this!
I can’t tell you how many times I’ve reread “Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret,” by Judy Blume — the OG writer of young adult novels.
I think I tried to estimate once how many times, and it was in the hundreds!
Anywho, it’s a coming-of-age story about a teen girl growing up in the suburbs in the 70s, and even though I actually had no real idea what was going on when I first read the book in elementary school, there’s something so approachable about the main character’s awkwardness that resonated and still resonates with me. I’m going to have to dig out my old copy and read it again before I watch the movie, for sure.
Speaking of books, which ones have you liked enough to read again and again and again?
