New Blog Announcement!

I am very pleased to announce that I have teamed up with the lovely Hannah from The Book Vortex to bring all of you Ruta Sepetys fans something special.  After Hannah invited me to take place in the Between Shades of Gray Online Book Tour, we got to know each other and realized that we have a lot in common, thus leading to lots of discussion and brainstorming.  Thanks to a particularly brilliant idea, Hannah approached Ruta with the idea of a fan site.  Ruta agreed, I came on board, and the Ruta Sepetys Official Fan Website was born!

Today marks not only the release of the Between Shades of Gray paperback, but also the official launch of the site.  Hannah and I hope you will stop by, check out what the site has to offer, and participate.  As family history played such a huge part in Ruta's inspiration for Between Shades of Gray, we have a special project called "Your Story," where you will be able to post your own stories about your families' histories.  You will also be able to keep up with news about Ruta and her works, tour dates, and even photos!  We really hope to see you there.  We welcome comments and interaction.  Come and tell us what you think, and don't forget to check out all of the stops of the blog tour for interviews, special content, and some awesome giveaways.  Come celebrate with us!
