This is my seventh or so re-read of the book and it's still one of my all-time favorites. I've always loved StarGirl, but in the first one she was utterly oppressed and "too" weird, as viewed by her classmates. However in this sequel, we see the story through StarGirl's eyes and she is just a normal teenage girl, if still a little strange. She's home schooled, writes poems, celebrates the natural holidays, throws away her clocks, makes friends with a six year old, all in a letter to her beloved Leo which according to Archie, is slowly making his way to becoming worthy of her. Stargirl has a unique perspective on the world that I have always envied. What would it feel like to just not care what other people think, but to show, and express your feelings, when you feel like it. Dance on top of a roof at night, do a snow dance, cry when you're sad, wash yourself away from the world, for just a little bit. StarGirl has struggles, but I think the most important thing is that she's learning more everyday, and she embraces that knowledge, and just lives for "today, today, today."
