TJ asked Ruta Sepetys:

Hi! Salt to the Sea was my first book to read by you - I am looking forward to checking out your other novels. I thought Salt to the Sea would make a GREAT movie...all the characters where so real and I felt compassion for them all - have you had anyone approach you about a movie?

Ruta Sepetys Hello TJ!

I'm so happy that you felt compassion for the characters in the book!
Yes, I've been in discussions with some producers and studios about making a movie of "Salt to the Sea." Please keep your fingers crossed. It would be incredible if the story were adapted for film.

Hello Ruta! I am a huge fan of your work! Between Shades of Grey is my absolute favourite book. In fact, I loved it so much I read it more than once! I'm so excited for it to hit the big screen! I know that you will be touring Canada some time in May 2016. I wanted to know if you will be coming to Toronto, Canada to do book signings? I would love to meet you in person! Thank you!

Natty asked Ruta Sepetys:

Hi Ruta, Very excited for your next book coming out have read both Between the Shades of Grey and Out of the Easy..loved both for their individual stories. I have a couple of questions. 1) Is there any travel time scheduled to come to Australia this year? If not, how do we make it happen? 2) When you are writing your main female characters, is making them strong willed an important characteristic? :) Nat
