The book is the sequel to the New York Times bestselling book, Stargirl, and centers on "the world's longest letter" in diary form. Love, Stargirl (Stargirl, #2), Jerry Spinelli Love, Stargirl is a 2007 young adult novel by Jerry Spinelli. You can find this review and more on my blog Miss Print. I think that if everyone tried to be a little more like Stargirl the world would be a better place. These books are fairly quick reads with straightforward prose, but both are the rare books that I feel strongly everyone should read (definitely read Stargirl before picking up this one since they are basically two parts of one, larger story). If you aren't touched by Stargirl and her little kindnesses and the beauty of this book, then you are beyond all help. It was refreshing to see this amazing girl's thoughts and hear things from her point of view (the first book is told in Leo's POV). I am as enchanted with Stargirl now as I was when I read Spinelli's first novel about her. The entire novel, especially the ending, is magical. Through small kindnesses, unexpected friendships, and leaving behind lots of oranges, Stargirl makes as much of an impression here in Pennsylvania as she did at Mica High-maybe even more.
As the story progresses, Stargirl changes from a stranger to an integral part of her new hometown. Betty Lou, particularly, has a special place in my heart because she gives some of the best advice I have ever heard when she tells Stargirl to live in the now and make the most of each today that she finds. Spinelli brings in a lot of memorable characters. The story reads as a year-long letter to Leo as Stargirl lives life as only she can and tries to understand how things went wrong with Leo and what her feelings are for him now. She has left Mica High in Arizona and, more importantly, her boyfriend Leo. Love, Stargirl picks up where Stargirl left off. At first, I didn't think that this book could be as good as it's "prequel" Stargirl, but not I'm hard-pressed to say which was better. And I have not been able to pick up another book because I don't want to lose the feeling of satisfaction that came from finishing it. The story reads as a year-long letter to Leo as Stargirl I just finished Love, Stargirl by Jerry Spinelli.
