Goodreads asked Rue:

If you could travel to any fictional book world, where would you go and what would you do there?

Rue I would prefer to live my entire life hopping from one fictional book world to another, but I think I would begin my journey in The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett. I would want to inhabit the character of Mary Lennox! I think it would be so exciting to explore a huge English manor and discover a hidden room with a sickly boy who turns out to be a relative - not to mention all the rooms we don't get to read about! However, the highlight of my adventure would be finding the key AND figuring out what it opens. I've always found such tranquility in gardening (something about my hands in the earth) and the idea of bringing a wasted, secret place back to life fills me with inspiration. Once I finished that garden I think I'd pop through the wardrobe and have tea with Mr. Tumnus!
