Stargirl gets 5 stars!

I would highly recommend the book Stargirl. It is an interesting book that you just want to keep reading. Stargirl is about a high school student. She is very different and is just her self she doesn't worry about what other people think. She is unlike most high school kids who want to fit in. She ...

Love, Stargirl 38 reviews Jerry Spinelli
Knopf Books for Young Readers, 2007
Stargirl Writes Back
+ A moving story of change + Love the Love, Stargirl
Jerry Spinelli's "Stargirl" may be my favorite book of all time. It's not only a well told tale about individuality and innocent love, it's also a completely transforming read to the people who became engrossed with the character of Stargirl Caraway and her outlook on life. I enjoyed the book so ...

Wuthering Heights (Bantam Classics) 497 reviews Emily Brontė
Bantam Classics, 1983
very intense
+ Love doesn't always make us happy.
The outdated writing style takes a little getting used to, but once you do, it's good. It's incredible to me how the author, with her unusually limited experience of the outside world, who probably never had a boyfriend or lover in her life and lived a secluded life in a remote part of Yorkshire ...
