Hello Mari! Between Shades of Grey has been adapted into the film "Ashes in the Snow" and should release early next year. Recently, Salt to the Sea was sold to Universal, so that looks like it will be a movie, too! Thank you for asking!

Ruta Sepetys:
Where do you find your inspiration for these historical fiction books? The true events for these stories are not well covered in our school curriculums, but my students love the books! Is there a certain time period that peaks your interest? Are there certain stories that you feel compelled to bring attention to that have been ignored?

Hi Ruta! After reading "Out of the Easy", "Between Shades of Gray", and "Salt to the Sea", I've concluded that Emilia is by far my favorite historical fiction character EVER (though all your characters are spectacular). Her story is so powerful and heartwrenching to me. What inspired you to make her particular story/perspective one of the main focuses of "Salt to the Sea"? -Kylie
