Introduction response: Between Shades of Gray

So I've just finished reading the first few chapters of 
Between Shades of Gray and I have high expectations for it!
It's one of those stories that throw you straight into the deep end without a chance to come up for air. I was hooked from the first page. 

You are planted directly into the shoes of Lina, a fifteen-year-old. The Soviet secret police come knocking on her door, commanding them to pack in just twenty minutes. Frantically, they gather their belongings and are marched into a lorry, this is the last time they will see their home for years. 

I love the fact that as the reader, we know only as much as the characters, which meant as information was revealed to them it was also revealed to us. Super eager to read more, so I'm going to say goodbye now!

Happy reading, Kate x
