Book Review- Stargazing For Beginners

Stargazing For BeginnersSometimes life needs a little bit of chaos…

15-year-old Meg(ara) has big dreams- donning a spacesuit and climbing aboard a rocket to the stars is all she’s ever wanted, so when a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity surfaces that may just bring her closer to her life’s dearest goal, her mother leaves her and her baby stepsister, Elsa, to go after another one of her Big Important Causes in the hands of her slightly nutty grandfather to go to aid the poor in Myanmar.  Instead of speaking to judges about just how much she loves space up against her equally passionate rival , she ends up juggling the pressure of school and her restless baby sister. Will she ever reach the stars?

A beautiful, crazy book about love, priorities and dreams. I really loved it because it was a bit different to other books you might find; I thought it was lyrical and sweet in an unusual but satisfying way.
