I think I would have enjoyed this book more if it focused on different books by Judy Blume and sectioned them out. Here are the ones about Margaret, here are the ones about Forever..., and so on and so forth. After a while I felt like I was reading the same thing over and over again. Yet when I first started the book, I was touched by some of the stories that were shared - absentee parents, abusive relationships, falling out with friends, never fitting in, etc. But as the book went on, I felt the stories became less and less serious and more silly. One felt like a book report on one of the books (I forget the title right now that is how little it touched me).
