“She loved mysteries so much that she became one.”
Its not that Margo is the kindest literary character, Actually, she is self-absorbed, mischievous and all around unlikable. However, the obscurity of Margo is what makes her so alluring. She acts without consequences and doesn’t give a second thought to what others think of her.
