 Rating:  - love stargirlit is very sad and happy to know that you now what happend after stargirl left mica high Rating:  - Physical book is nice... the story is at best...The actual book is a nice product with a nice cover, binding and dust jacket. However, if you fell in love with Stargirl in the first book... and loved Leo's romance with her don't read the sequel... it's the movie series that kills off all your favorite characters or turns them into wackos to keep a story going... this sequel really squashes all the good of the first book. Stargirl betrays her own self and her own feelings... far from the stand alone she was in the first book... she's ...

I enjoyed the book so much that I purchased "Love, Stargirl" (the sequel) before I even finished the first book. But then it sat on my shelf, unread for months. I was actually nervous about reading it. Maybe I was scared that the ... Read More Rating: - Skip the SequelI loved Stargirl, the first book, because it had a point, it taught us something about the way we treat each other, and the way we should treat each other. It challenged us to look beyond appearances and assumptions, to appreciate differences. Love, Stargirl, has none of that depth. It is about Stargirl pining for her old boyfriend, a boy who really did not treat her well anyway. Yes, she does crazy things in a very Stargirl fashion, yes, she makes new friends, all of them on the fringe in ... Read More |
