And she understands that her mom loves her too. And she doesn't stay with this till the end! She changes! She understand that she actually likes her mother and she doesn't hate her. She has some stupid shit in her mind about her mom and she doesn't know what to do with her life. Understand this, it's not about "LOOK AT ME, BE LIKE ME". She understands that she isn't clever for college enough, she understands that she isn't a model and she doesn't try to be something she can't be. S he doesn't think she's so fucking clever so everyone else in the world can't match with her intelligence. She doesn't think she's beautiful the way she is. And you know what? The idea of this book is not "HA-HA I'M A COOL TEENAGER, I'M SO PRETTY, I'M AWESOME, MY MOM IS SHIT AND STUPID, I'M SO COOL HA-HA". Not all teenagers are the same, not all of them are like Mandy. And what can I say about it? It's not about a feminism and body positive, not even about the diversity. I'm pretty much the person many could describe as a bigot, but I would not. An important remark: I'm not a SJW, not a feminist, not a woke guy or something like that. I think some people just didn't read it lol. I Am Not Starfire is a story about teenagers and/as aliens about knowing where you come from and where you are going and about mothers. ![]() When someone from Starfire’s past arrives, Mandy must make a choice: give up before the battle has even begun, or step into the unknown and risk everything to save her mom. ![]() Or she did until she gets partnered with Claire, the person she intensely denies liking but definitely likes a lot, for a school project. Everyone thinks Mandy needs to go to college and become whoever you become at college, but Mandy has other plans. And ever s ince she walked out on her SATs, which her mom doesn’t know about, Mandy has been even more distant. To Starfire, who is from another planet, Mandy seems like an alien, like some distant, angry, light-years away moon. She’s a kid who dyes her hair black and hates everyone but her best friend, Lincoln. Starfire is gorgeous, tall, sparkly, and a hero.
