Luna communicates through looks as much as sign language and it was nice to see her friends learn sign language to communicate with her rather than pressing her to talk. Luna is raised by her father and stepmother and is selectively mute after her mother abandoned her as a toddler. Much like in Pretty Reckless the family dynamics are complex and the books really explore the effect that has on kids especially teenagers. While Knight and Luna weren’t overly present in Daria and Penn’s book they were mentioned enough by Daria that it was clear they would make for a good story.

After I finished Pretty Reckless in record time and enjoyed it so thoroughly I knew I wanted to read whatever related books L.J.
