Hi, guys I promised I'd update when I knew more about the book tour, so here you go:

Book launch is in just under two weeks and there's the tour dates/locations so far. What you see there is mostly radio, which just started booking. It's still being updated every day. There are also a couple of book signings/readings/Q&A sessions in there, but not too many yet. The readings and TV interviews will probably be scheduled right at the very end, since they tend to make the decision so last-second.
So far the book has been reviewed by Publishers Weekly (the main trade paper), which said great things about it:

And two days ago I got my very first newspaper review, which was super kind and humbling to read, and I'm pretty sure she's being far too nice and I don't deserve that many sweet things said about me Oh, well, what am I saying? I'll take it.

And there are a couple other reviews I know of slated to be published soon (Orange County Register and ELLE Magazine). So yeah, anyway, there ya go :) I'm really hoping it helps get more coverage on JWs out there, along with homelessness. The JW upbringing and mentality is a running theme throughout the entire story, since it sort of touched all aspects of my life.
Right now I'm scheduled to physically visit San Francisco and New Orleans, but I know they'll be trying to send me to most of the major cities in the U.S. (i.e., Los Angeles, Chicago, NYC, Phoenix, Seattle, etc.) and probably a few in Canada, as well. If I end up doing a signing or a reading in a city near you, I'd love to meet some of my fellow JWN-ers.
