âMargoâs Got Money Troubles is the feel-good novel we need right now.â âThe Washington Post â[An] enormously entertaining and lovable book.â âNick Hornby, New York Times Book Review A bold, laugh-out-loud funny, and heartwarming story about one young womanâs attempt to navigate adulthood, new motherhood, and her meager bank account in our increasingly online worldâfrom the PEN/Faulkner finalist and critically acclaimed author of The Knockout Queen. As the child of a Hooters waitress and an ex-pro wrestler, Margo Millet's always known sheâd have to make it on her own. So she enrolls at her local junior college, even though she canât imagine how sheâll ever make a living. Sheâs still figuring things out and never planned to have an affair with her English professorâand while the affair is brief, it isnât brief enough to keep her from getting pregnant. Despite everyoneâs advice, she decides to keep the baby, mostly out of naivetĂŠ and a yearning for something bigger. Now, at twenty, Margo is alone with an infant, unemployed, and on the verge of eviction. She needs a cash infusionâfast. When her estranged father, Jinx, shows up on her doorstep and asks to move in with her, she agrees in exchange for help with childcare. Then Margo begins to form a plan: sheâll start an OnlyFans as an experiment, and soon finds herself adapting some of Jinxâs advice from the world of wrestling. Like how to craft a compelling character and make your audience fall in love with you. Before she knows it, sheâs turned it into a runaway success. Could this be the answer to all of Margoâs problems, or does internet fame come with too high a price? Blisteringly funny and filled with sharp insight, Margoâs Got Money Troubles is a tender tale starring an endearing young heroine whoâs struggling to wrest money and power from a world that has little interest in giving it to her. Itâs a playful and honest examination of the art of storytelling and controlling your own narrative, and an empowering portrait of coming into your own, both online and off. âA wholly original novel. . . . Thorpe is both poetic and profound in the way she brings her remarkable story to an end.â âThe Associated Press
