Sarah Geary asked Ruta Sepetys:

Hi Ruta! I'm a huge fan of your books and can't wait to read Salt to the Sea! I was wondering what's your favorite young adult novel (besides the ones you wrote)? :)

Ruta Sepetys Hello Sarah!

Thanks so much for your great question. It's so hard to choose just one young adult novel as a favorite so I'll list a couple:

How I Live Now by Meg Rosoff
A Northern Light by Jennifer Donnelly

Hope you enjoy them!

Hi Ruta! I absolutely love your books and I was so happy when heard you were answering questions! What is your favourite era in history and why?

Amanda asked Ruta Sepetys:

I am a grade 8 English teacher and I've read Between Shades... to one of my classes. They loved it (and the fantastic book trailer) and a few of my students have since purchased Out of the Easy because of Between Shades. What drew you to back to WWII with the writing of Salt to the Sea?

Daniel asked Ruta Sepetys:

What is your research process like and how is it made more difficult in terms of certain topics due to the censorship common during the war years?
