I am Margaret
IN MARGO’S WORLD, IF YOU DON’T PASS YOUR SORTING AT 18 YOU ARE RECYCLED. LITERALLY. Margaret Verrall dreams of marrying the boy she loves and spending her life with him. But she’s part of the underground network of Believers – and that carries the death penalty. And there’s just one other problem. She’s going to fail her Sorting. But a chance to take on the system ups the stakes beyond mere survival. Now she has to break out of the Facility - or face the worst punishment of all: Conscious Dismantlement.
This is an amazingly creative "reimagining" of the story of a heroic British saint...but with the story set in a dystopian future where holy heroism can be appreciated by modern teens. This book has some disturbing content, but it is a deeply riveting story that will echo in the heart of the reader long after finishing it.

This book includes depictions of torture and death that can be disturbing...but the inclusion of it helps readers understand the depth of the heroic sacrifice made by the person in that situation.
Without anything depicted in explicit terms, there is some "sexual tension" in the story to be aware of.
This story is set in a dystopian future where the authorities purposefully dismiss or punish those who acknowledge or appreciate the providence of God in anything.
