5.0 out of 5 stars Courtesy of Teens Read Too, 22 Aug 2007
By TeensReadToo "Eat. Drink. Read. Be Merrier." (All Over the US & Canada) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: Love, Stargirl (Hardcover)
Fans of Jerry Spinelli's STARGIRL will jump and shout when they hear about the sequel, LOVE, STARGIRL.

This was not a book that I expected to have a sequel, but in true Jerry Spinelli tradition, Stargirl's story lives on.

Moving from Arizona to Pennsylvania has Stargirl missing the desert, the cactus, and especially Leo. Although she is not absolutely certain about their continued relationship, Stargirl uses her year-long letter to keep Leo up-to-date on the events of her new life. She doesn't ever anticipate sending the letter. In fact, she mentions that Leo will most likely only get to read it if she actually sees him again.

Filled with fantastic memories and new adventures, Spinelli will have readers falling in love with Stargirl all over again. Memories of the past will remind readers of her wonderful spirit, while her new neighborhoods offer great variety. There's cute and always curious Dootsie, who introduces herself as a "human bean." Dootsie takes Stargirl to meet Betty Lou, who fears anything beyond her trailer door. Then there's Charlie, who haunts the local cemetery and his late wife's grave. Alvina, the hot-head, and Perry, the thief, add further color to the cast of characters.

Stargirl's fascination with the changing seasons and the Winter Solstice take her to Enchanted Hill to plot her own personal calendar. It feels right and it offers a way to remember the past.

Stargirl's tale is tender and honest in its straightforward simplicity. Thank you to the author for bringing back this famous character.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant! Read 'Stargirl' first though, 18 Sep 2008
By H. Gilroy "Vivica Siren" (York, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This story is beautiful. A year on from where Stargirl left in the first book and this time, we get to hear the story form Stargirl's own pen. In the form of a letter to Leo we hear about how Stargirl is coping with life after Mica High.
I was dubious at first: I loved the atmosphere that Spinelli created with the Arizona Dessert in Stargirl, so with this book set in a different state, I was scared that the story wouldn't have the same atmosphere.
I was wrong to be scared as 'Love, Stargirl' has just as much heart and soul as 'Stargirl', maybe more as Stargirl has a sense of vulnerability about her that the first book didn't seem to show as much.

I won't post any spoilers, but I will say that the new characters are just as lively as Stargirl is in Spinelli's first book and it left me with an amazingly positive outlook on life, even more so than reading the first book.

However, to appreciate this book, it really helps to read 'Stargirl' first otherwise there are some changes and references that you might not fully understand or relate to.
