Stargirl is a teenage novel written by Jerry Spinelli that mainly focuses on individuality. Today's society is all about fitting in with everyone else, but the thought of being unique is rarely ever considered. Everyone is always willing to impress one another and are always caring about their appearances and what people will think and say about them. This is what degrades self-care and self-love. What really matters is someone's personality and being in general. This novel represents the importance of conformity and individuality. The meaningfulness behind this beautiful literature is loudly spoken through Jerry's use of words. Overall, the author is willing to indicate that everyone should be their selves and be comfortable and happy with who they are. Being unique is fun and stress-free and everyone should try to be different and stand out. I would give this novel a rating of 5/5 and would definitely recommend it to anyone who feels they have to change to fit in. @Bookland of the Teen Review Board at the Hamilton Public Library
