I watched the movie on Disney Plus and loved it, and I knew I had to read the book. I really liked the book and the details that were added, but I was hoping for a little bit more. While Stargirl is supposed to be mysterious, I felt like there was almost too much mystery around her for the plot to carry her, but I do find a lot of the concerns in the book very true and real for the intended audience. I'm hoping more is answered in the second book. Also, we all need a porcupine tie.
