The Alchemist reminds me of another book, Stargirl, written by Jerry Spinelli. In this book, the main character's name is Stargirl. Her name alone reflects her bizarre personality. She stands out in the crowd, her vivacious personality propelling her to talk to students she doesn't know. Unfortunately, she's not accepted by anyone. But a boy named Leo takes the time to befriend her, and later becomes her boyfriend.
An important trait Stargirl possesses is persistence.
