Hello! First of all I loved Between Shades of Gray. It's definitely one of my favorite books! What made you want to write that book and would you consider writing a sequel?
Ruta Sepetys
Hi Elizabeth!
I'm so grateful that you enjoyed "Between Shades of Gray." Thank you!
Much of the world is not aware that Stalin deported so many people to Siberia. I wanted to write the book to create an awareness and also give voice to the people who never had a chance to tell their story. And yes, I'd love to write a sequel! :)

Hi, Ruta! I'm from Romania and we have here translated Between Shades of Gray at Epica. I read your book and I cried so much and I saw a video with Salt to the Sea and I cried again. It's not a question, but I want to say that romanians are in love with your work! Are there any chances to come in Romania one day? :D
