This book got me hooked since the first page, I couldn't put it down! It is an absolutely beautiful book that even adults could read. The events in her life are quirky and different and she soon make friends with the people of the town, from sweet little Dootsie Pringle to angry and uncontrollabe Alvina Klecko. This book is about romance and friendship. A book that you need to read again and again!

I really loved Stargirl. It's a fantastic book, written really well, about daring to be different. Stargirl comes to school from being home-educated, which I am, by the way. She's so different from your average air-head teenager, but people start to feel threatened by her differences. This is stuff that I have to deal with every day, and I think that Jerry Spinelli has really captured the human heart. If things weren't bad enough for Stargirl, she has to choose between being popular, and being allowed to be with the boy she loves, or being different, and being barred from him forever.
I really enjoyed reading Stargirl. It's a book that everyone should enjoy, and, apart from being a great contemporary romance, it picks up on the dangers and revelations of being different. 01.08.2008 Matilda Ferry-Swainson
