Will you write other novels based on different historical events?(I would love to see that!) Would you ever consider writing in a different genre? Your books are so great! I love how when I'm reading them I'm not only enjoying the story, but I learn something from each book.

Hi Baylie!
Yes, I'm definitely going to write novels on other historical events. I'm not sure I would write in a genre other than historical, but I might write a historical thriller or a historical romance one day. :) Thank you!!

Hi Ruta! I really enjoyed Salt to the Sea and can't wait to get to Between Shades of Grey. I am curious, 1) What's your favourite quote? 2) Since your academic background & career and books are so diverse. Are there any intersections? How did your career influence your writing? If you are ever in East Africa coast ( read: Kenya) , please let us know.

A friend of mine recommended Salt to the Sea, and it has been my favorite read of the year thus far. My question is, how much time and what sort of research process goes into writing a book like Salt to the Sea? As a descendant of Eastern European Jews, who mostly perished during WWII, I find it difficult to find accurate information about that region and time period. Thank you for an exquisitely crafted novel!
