Love, Stargirl by Jerry Spinelli.

Love, Stargirl is the sequel to Stargirl. It picks up a year after Stargirl ends, when Stargirl has moved to Pennsylvania, with new friends, new experiences, and new trials. 


Love, Stargirl is written as the world's longest letter, addressed to Leo. Stargirl feels abandoned by Leo and funnels those feelings into her letter. 


This book is omigoodness amazing. It trumped Stargirl- big time. Here's why:


Dootie: She was cute and clever and loud and lovable.

Perry: he was adorable. And likable. And funny. And the perfect mix of bold and shy. And... I liked him better than Leo. 

Betty: every book needs an agoraphobic. Especially one as lovable as Betty. 

I liked this book TONS more than Stargirl.  I think because Stargirl narrates this one, as apposed to Leo, who I never really got attached to. It's perfect.
