Shooting Stars Everywhere

By Martina Wildner

Book Overview

The first anonymous letter arrives on July 23rd, Victor's 13th birthday. Which is good, because it gives him something to write about in the journal his father gave him as a present. Soon Victor is writing down everything that happens as he tries to solve the mystery of the letters, conquer his fear of jumping off the high diving board at the pool, and figure out what is going on between his divorced parents. Things change when he meets D, however. A good diver and an assertive detective, she helps Victor to stop writing his life and start living it.

Good YA Book

This was a cute YA book if not for a few paragraphs it could easily have been a juvenile fiction book.Its been translated from German but was well translated.Victor is a lonley kid who has alot of fears.When on his birthday the anonymous letters start to arrive.As he begins to unfold the mystery behind these letters he meets D who has problems of her own.Together they work to reveal the writer of the letters and figure out their own lives.This is a mystery and a coming of age book.
