As a kid this wasn't my fav JB book–I didn't relate to Margaret's desire for boobs and her period at alllllllll but I still found other parts of Margaret's character to be very relatable. Judy Blume is an icon for a reason, she is SO great at creating these very honest, vulnerable voices. And re-reading it as an adult I found I picked up on more nuances, especially among the parent/grandparent dynamics.
