This is my favorite book of all time. This book made me happy it made me sad and made me cry. The thing I disliked the most was the end. Through the few last chapters i was waiting for him and "Stargirl" to get back together or at least see each other one last time. Although i disliked the ending I still give it a 5 out of 5

I liked the book Stargirl because, it is sort of like our school. In the way they treat other kids who are different. They make fun of them just because they are different. I think that is not right but its still a good book! The only thing thats different about our schools is that their school has a Stargirl who cares about other people, not just herself!

Stargirl is a wonderful and exciting book. It keeps you wanting to read more and more. One we started reading this in class we had to stop at a certain chapter, dont tell anybody, but I read more every time bacause I always wanted to know what happened. It was also a very passionate book, and Jerry Spinelli expressed that very well. Stargirl was just an all aroung good book, no I take that back. It is a GREAT book!!!

I think Stargirl was one of the very best books i have ever read. This book has had some very interesting stuff in it. My favorite parts of the of the book was the pick-n-flickers and the part where Stargirl and Leo kissed. I would like to know where Stargirl went to in such a hurry. I hope that Stargirl and Leo will meet up again. I also hope that Jerry Spinelli will write a second book on Stargirl. I rate this book a five because of these reasons.

I loved reading the book Stargirl! It was a great book to read and I had a hard time putting it down and stop reading it. I was always wondering what would come next. I always wanted to read on and never stop until the end. Stargirl was about kinda what some people would go through if they acted like her in our school. But, since we don't have a T.V. show, she wouldn't be put on a T.V. show. If that did happen, I would wonder who would be the Hillarie Kimble in our school. You never know. I think that Jerry Spinelli should write a sequal to this book.

I thought Stargirl was a very good book. Some parts of the book were sad and some were funny. I would like to read another book like this somtime again. I don't think Stargirl should have just left like that. I would recommend this book to anyone.
