I have not finshed this book, but so for this book is boring to me. I don't really understand this book so am not really good at explaining this book. The book is about a girl that's life is like mine with the students at school everyone hates her and want let her have another chance. She cheers for the other team in the games. Stargirl got told that she needs to change.

Stargirl the book is not very interesting at all to me, because I was lost many times in the book. The plot of this book is very confusing. The book also has to many riddles of talk in it. The book is very girly and has very little meaning. SometimesI was wondering what was happening in the book or whwat they were they were talking about. I would not reccomend this book.


Sincerely,

Stargirl could use a storyline also a match and gas. It is way to boring, it really does need a makeover. a book needes some level of making the reader curious. I'm thirteen and I read the book in 4 hours and felt bored every minute of it. I've read better first grade books! We as readers need to have books with some level of adventure, romance, and action.

I think that the book Stargirl was a poor book in all my friends who read Stargirl and I think it was a not a good book for children the author was probably not thinking when he rated the book stargirl for young readers. I fell to see what the author was thinking when he was writing this book.

I think stargirl is bland, boring and girly book. I was given it to read as a school assainment, and i didn't like it. I thought that the descriptions were bland and boring, the plot was weird, and, it didn't make any sense. The plot was confusing and, come on! A girl that has a rat, wears long frilly dresses and plays the ukelele? It doesn't sound right, who'd do that? I think that the characters feelings were not properly described. One of the worst books I've ever read. I was bord on every letter, word, sentence, paragraph, page and chapter. Truly awful.
pretty bad book huh?

Jeez did the guy make the storyline up when he was drunk? cause it sucks

booorrinnnggg! Ugh like ANY of this EVER happens. Yeah. If she went to my high school she would just hang out with the losers...its just how things work. If this Jerry guy is going to write a book he shoulkd make it realistic.

I read this book for a class assignment, and it was pretty dull. No let me correct, REALLY DULL. I get the concept, but there was really no fun to the book. I've read better
