My friend recommended this book to me, so I thought I'd give it a try.
This book is about a girl named Margaret who moves to Farbrook, New Jersy because her apartment got rented and they owned a house in New Jersey.
Margaret tries to fit in with her new friends. Margaret and her new friends make a secret club where they talk about boys and how they developed. Also they have a notebook and they write everything that happens to them and what boys they like.
Margaret doen't have a religion and when her friends found out they were in shock. So her friends told her she was lucky because she didn't have a religion. Margaret's grandmother told her to choose her religion as Jewish just because her grandmother was Jewish.
Her grandmother was asking some weird questions, like if she had a boyfriend, and if he was Jewish. Margaret also develops into a teenager and she starts liking a boy named Philip Leroy. She says that he's good-looking and cute.
I don't want to give out anymore stuff about Margaret and her teenager problems, So I guess you will have to find out and read it. I like this book a lot because it talks about what me and my friends are going through right now.
