Stargirl-Jerry Spinelli
Rating-☆☆☆☆
Genre-Young Adult classic
Published-2000
From the day she arrives at quiet Mica High in a burst of color and sound, the hallways hum with the murmur of “Stargirl, Stargirl.” She captures Leo Borlock’ s heart with just one smile. She sparks a school-spirit revolution with just one cheer. The students of Mica High are enchanted. At first.
Then they turn on her. Stargirl is suddenly shunned for everything that makes her different, and Leo, panicked and desperate with love, urges her to become the very thing that can destroy her: normal.
Omg!!This book took my breath away when I first read it.I had no expectations from this book when I started reading it.But as the book progressed,I had became a Stargirl fan for sure.I read the book in late 2016 but then I didn’t have a blog.So I kept the fangirling to myself.
But the story is really superb.I mean the book is not even 200 pages.A book less than 200 pages has more character development than other ones.The story doesn’t tries to preach that you ought to be kind enough to everyone.This is just Stargirl’s empathetic nature.But this changes the novel’s narrator,Leo who is completely mesmerised by stargirl and she brings a stifling change in him.He infact becames a better person in a way.I mean I loved the story for its simplicity and innocence.Somehow the book is fresh and poignantly written.The book is more of a classic and less of a Young adult. Seriously recommended for Ya reader’s.It is surely not going to disappoint you.
