About This Book
Regan's brother Liam can't stand the person he is during the day. Like the moon
from whom Liam has chosen his female namesake, his true self, Luna, only reveals
herself at night. In the secrecy of his basement bedroom Liam transforms himself
into the beautiful girl he longs to be, with help from his sister's clothes and
makeup. Now, everything is about to change-Luna is preparing to emerge from her
cocoon. But are Liam's family and friends ready to welcome Luna into their
lives? Compelling and provocative, this is an unforgettable novel about a
transgender teen's struggle for self-identity and acceptance.
