  rating: 5 of 5 stars<br/>Some Spoilers! No big give aways though!

<br/>
<br/>I was estatic when I heard my beloved Stargirl was going to have her own sequel! I was going to see her life from HER point of view. But about ten pages into the book, I started becoming skeptical, it sounded more like susan then stargirl I thought, but I realized stargirl was different then I pictured, I thought she was soft spoken, only thought about others, and was unqiue. What I found out in Love, Stargirl, was better. She was talkative, LOUD spoken, thinks about others, AND is unique. My first thought about the book was squashed when she met Dootsie, sweet Dootsie, not your typical 6 year old, but hey, Stargirl wasn't a average 16 year old. Mrs. Blob, "I'm gonna be a waffle!" girl and Stargirl's best friend. Alvina is special in my heart to, not because she could beat a guy twice her size, but because of the words that were never spoken, but stargirl heard, "Stargirl's not rotten." Betty Lou, as well is one of my favorites, agoraphobic, donut eater, and red sock hanger, she knows a lot more then you would think an agoraphobic would know, she stills notices the simplest wonders, like a night flower opening the sky, or a mockingbird on the window. My other favorite, surpise surpise, is Stargirls father, my new favorite quote,while attempting to get a rise out of Alvina, " Yeah we were in seventh grade. She was in my homeroom, I hated her more then anybody in the world "Yeah?" "Yeah know what I did to her?" She was all eyes and ears. "What?" He grinned. He pointed to his ring finger, I married her." Stargirl has made me realized shes not Hippiegirl with no emotions except everyone elses, but instead she in stargirl, brighter then the night sky.
