SOON TO BE A MAJOR A24 TV SHOW STARRING NICOLE KIDMAN AND ELLE FANNING

As the child of an ex-pro wrestler and a Hooters waitress, Margo Millet's always known she'd have to make it on her own. When she finds herself pregnant by her English professor and in need of cash fast, she comes up with a plan: she'll start an OnlyFans as an experiment, producing content and writing storylines unlike anything else out there.

Luckily, what Margo lacks in options she makes up for in ingenuity, and before she knows it, she's an online phenomenon. Could this be the answer to all of Margo's problems, or does internet fame come with too high a price?

Praise for Margo's Got Money Troubles: The unputdownable and hilarious novel that inspired the Apple TV series

  • A whipsmart novel with a completely surprising heroine who comprehensively wins your heart . . . wryly and often inappropriately funny. - The Times, Book of the Month

  • The premise is good and the execution even better - nonjudgmental, original and very funny; the book is warm and generous too. I loved it. - Sunday Times STYLE

  • Sharp and funny by turns, this is an exceptionally tender look at young motherhood and love that also involves professional wrestling, and yes, OnlyFans. I gobbled it up.

  • Wildly funny and perceptive . . . Margo's Got Money Troubles is about so much more than Margo or money, and yet is also very sharp-eyed about how central real money troubles are. I'll be thinking - and laughing - about it for a long time to come - i

  • Long after the last page of Margo's Got Money Troubles, I think of certain lines and bust out laughing. In public. This novel is damn funny, but also touching and smart and surprising and beguiling and just completely bad ass. Rufi Thorpe is truly one of one!

  • When I finished it, I couldn't quite believe it was over, that is how much I was completely rapt by Margo's Got Money Troubles. A brilliantly unique story, fallible and lovable characters and moments so human and hilarious that I laughed out loud multiple times.

  • An audacious, wildly funny, completely unpredictable novel by a writer so singular that it's hard to compare her to anyone else . . . An absolutely brilliant book.

  • Margo's Got Money Troubles is just so good: the humor, the pathos, the redemption - every sentence, every twist of plot is wildly original and unexpected. When has such a lovable heroine ever been created?
