Overview
Overview
Meet Margaret Worms. At twelve years old, she's the head detective of the mystery club Girls Can Solve Anything. Margaret and her three best friends are leading exciting lives solving crimes, having adventures, and laughing a lot. Fast forward to high school. The club has disbanded, and Margaret is unmoored--she doesn't want to grow up, and she wishes her friends wouldn't either. Instead, she opts out, developing an eating disorder that quickly takes over her life. When she enters a treatment center, Margaret finds her path to recovery twisting sideways as she pursues a string of mysteries involving a ghost, a hidden passage, disturbing desires, and her own vexed relationship with herself.
Margaret and the Mystery of the Missing Body reimagines nineties adolescence--mashing up girl group series, choose-your-own-adventures, and chronicles of anorexia--in a queer and trans coming-of-age tale like no other. An interrogation of girlhood and nostalgia, dysmorphia and dysphoria, this debut novel puzzles through the weird, ever-evasive questions of growing up.
