I First Heard of Ashley Herring Blake and her book: girl made of stars at a book swap with friends. I Thought It looked interesting but never got around to reading it as I had been reading many other books at the time. A While Later, while I was looking through overdrive, I was trying to remember what it was called because I didn't have anything to read. I Knew It had something to do with a girl and stars and felt that the word love was in there somewhere so I tried looking up phrases such as "star loving girl" and "girl who loves stars". Eventually I Found It when I looked up "Star girl" (also a great book you guys). I Quickly Sped through it and then found out that two of Blake's other books were also available at that moment and read them as well. They are all great and books that good should definitely have a wait list so put them on hold quickly... before the world finds out what great books they are.
