Who would like this book? You would probably have to be in your teens to fully enjoy this book. If you like a good romance, then you would like it also. Note that this isn’t like all other romances though. It also can be a bit of a mystery, like Stargirl herself.
The goods on this book: Meet the incredible, amazing, totally unique enigma that is Stargirl. She is everything, and nothing all at the same time. At least, that is how she describes herself. Captivated by Stargirl, Leo falls in love. When the people end up turning on her, he helps her change. But not all change is good. Will it destroy her? Or is this change for the better? One thing is for sure, though. Stargirl will always be a mystery.
