I just finished Between Shades of Gray and the story seemed so real. While I was reading the story I became so Attached to the characters that when one of the characters died I felt the pain of the people that cared about that person. This story changed my perspective on how our community isn't that bad. I can't wait to read another one of your books.
Thank you so much, Erin! I really appreciate it. I hope you have a great holiday. I'm hard at work on the next book. :)
