Dear Ms. Kittredge,
I have a very hard time explaining why I keep reading this series.  As I’ve mentioned in the past, the main character, Luna Wilder, can be really off-putting at times.  On the other hand, it’s very nice to see her maturing and evolving over the course of the series.  The Luna Wilder we [...]
