Agnes asked Ruta Sepetys:

I really enjoyed reading Out of the Easy, like OMG! I was going to ask something, and then I happened to see you had already replied to a similar comment, and that you were positive about writing a sequel to it. I'm so glad you are considering it!(!!) (excuse my excitement, haha) Thank you, I would really like to read your other book as well. (I'm sorry this is not really a question?)

Alyssa

Alyssa asked Ruta Sepetys:

Hi! I'm a huge fan of your work; it's kind of what has sparked my love of history these past few years. I'm taking extra history classes now and reading as much history as I can, and I'm even considering having history as my minor in college. I wanted to thank you so much for helping me find this love, and I also wanted to ask: what sparked your love of history? Did someone help spark your love the way you did for me?

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?
