Leslynn asked Amy Engel:

Hi Amy, I was lucky enough to read an ARC of Roanoke Girls and recommended it to all of my friends and colleagues when I finished. Even now, almost six months later, I am still haunted by the story. Will you be returning to YA, or can we look forward to another adult novel soon?

Amy Engel Hi Leslynn,

Thanks so much for recommending TRG and I'm very happy you enjoyed it! I am actually hard at work on another adult novel right now and hope to have it done soon. Hopefully the wait to read it won't be too long!

Best,
Amy

Wow! I absolutely fell in love with this story line. I usually read books that are mundane. However, The Book of IVY really got my attention (we share the same name). I loved how you created every character and made them unique and relatable. I just have one question! What inspired you to write this duology? (Also I hope you change your mind and continue the series)

Cat (Tackfiction) asked Amy Engel:

I thoroughly enjoyed The Roanoke Girls. It was heartbreaking but completely compelling. Did you take any inspiration from The Roanoke Colony? Is that where the idea for Allegra's carvings came from?

Suzanne Hunt asked Amy Engel:

Hey Amy~ I won TWO? copies of this book in the Giveaways yesterday? Just letting you know so I don't receive both and the other can go to another Giveaways entry. Thank you. Looking forward to receiving my copy and reading your book.
