Ruta Sepetys:
I've read and love all your books and Salt to the Sea is my favorite. One of the reasons I liked it so much was because I loved all the characters. I also loved the way it grasped you because you knew people were eventually going to die but didn't want it to happen. Who's death was the hardest to write and was there anyone you thought, "no I love them too much to kill them?"

Ruta Sepetys:
Thank you for sharing the story of Salt to the Sea: both the historical parts and the characters' stories. In what ways do you support survivors of sexual assault-- the Amelias of our world-- and in what ways would you encourage us to do so? And are you familiar with the horrors of the "comfort women" of World War II?
