OLDER FICTION
Spinelli, Jerry

Love, Stargirl

(4) YA The eccentric teen who temporarily reconfigured the social structure of Mica High writes an extended letter to her one-time boyfriend, Stargirl narrator Leo. Stargirl has moved to Pennsylvania, and Spinelli surrounds her with a host of offbeat characters. The preciousness combines with a relentlessly uplifting plot and makes the reader long for the bracing counterweight of those ultra-conventional Mica High cheerleaders.
