I loved this book, I finished it in 2 days after I got it. It was super interesting and a lot of action and romance. I would totally recommend this book to children who like random events and a girl who loves helping people. This book has a lot of suspense and it gets really interesting you don't want to stop, and This book can make you feel lots of different emotions. It also can inspire you to help other people and do somethings for others. It will be a great novel for people of all ages. This book is a one of a kind book that Jerry Spinelli has made and I can't wait to read Love Stargirl.

When a new girl comes to Mica High School, at first everyone takes a step back. For as long as they can remember, their quite town in Arizona has been as normal as normal can be...more or less. But once they get used to her odd aquirements, such as her carrying a pet rat in her bookbag, playing a ukeluele during lunch, and dressing in odd outfits, they take a liking to her. She joins the cheerleading squad, and gives the school a never-before-had school spirit. Leo Borlock falls for her- he starts to love her odd attire and quirky views, but just as he is starting to take a liking to her, the rest of his schoolmates do the opposite. In Stargirls occupation as a cheerleader, she begins to cheer for the other team as well. One day, when a boy on the opposing team gets injured in a basketball game, Stargirl tends to his injuries, and cheers his team' s name over and over again, bringing her morale down as a hero to zero. All of her good deeds and quirks backfire on her, and she becomes an outcast. But since Leo loves her, no one likes him, either. Which can he choose? To be an outcast, and keep his true love, or give up Stargirl in return for the popularity and part in this group of students that he thinks he deserves?

Hello everyone Adam here from Chatterbooks on Novel Island. Today we are going to be talking about the novel Stargirl and my opinion on it. While reading this book I was very touched by the uniqueness of Stargirl. She didn't care of what others thought about her, even if some people hated her, made fun of her, and excluded her from the majority of the school. Just because she wasn't like the others meant she was supposed to be hated. I can relate to Stargirl because sometimes, I feel like being different. However, I don't always take the chance, worrying about what others might think. Stargirl is a very entertaining and though provoking book that taught me to embrace my unique talents and abilities and to not be afraid of what others think of you.
