Review: Luna

Luna Luna by Julie Anne Peters
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I selected this book for our library hoping it would be something else I could add to our collection! I'm so glad I took a chance on this book! Main characters Reagan and Liam are in high school. Liam is transgender and feeling the weight of his secret and needs to come out as herself. She is known as Lia Marie & Luna to her sister Reagan.

What I like most about this book is that it is told from Reagan's point of view. She has always been extremely close to Liam and knows all of her secrets. Author Julie Anne Peters does an excellent job letting the reader inside what it is like to be a sibling of someone who is transgender and what that emotionally does to Reagan and the pressure she feels to protect Liam and keep her secret.

Flashbacks reveal how Liam has always known he is female and the readers sees how early Liam knew she wasn't born the right assigned gender.

A book that will suck you in, and wish you could be there for both Reagan & Luna.
