This book had me hooked. Instantly completely invested. But if you don’t know the history of what happened in Romania I’ll warn you right now, it was brutal. I’m genuinely to my core brokenhearted about it, not even exaggerating. #IMustBetrayYou #RutaSepetys #HistoricalFiction #Booksky

Las met plezier Het raadsel van Bletchley Park, een boek met codepuzzels voor 11 jaar en ouder. Over spionage, Enigma-machine en Tweede Wereldoorlog. Met vaart geschreven door #RutaSepetys en #SteveSheinkin (alle boeken van Sepetys zijn sowieso goed).
En nu wil ik naar #BletchleyPark. #booksky

On this day in 1967 Ruta Sepetys was born.
Sepetys was born in Detroit to Lithuanian parents. She rose to fame by writing 'Between Shades of Gray', which tells the story of Lithuanians during Stalinist times (it was inspired from tales of family and close friends).

This story is set in Romania in 1989 when Communist regimes are falling across Europe, but Nicolae Ceausescu, the Romanian dictator, still controls the country through isolation and fear.🧵

I was still mourning Between Shades of Gray when I started reading this one. Took me a minute to get into it because of that, but this book is equally as amazing and heart-wrenching. 🧵

32. Out of the Easy, @RutaSepetys: Laughed, cried, cried more. Absolutely LOVED this book, set in 1950s New Orleans. Like all of her work, the characters are so beautifully written, the plot harrowing and emotional, and the settings exquisitely described. LOVE. 5/5.

15. Salt to the Sea, @RutaSepetys: Again, heart wrenching and gorgeous, bringing up a bit of history that I didn't even know existed while also making me cry in a laundromat. If you have any love for reading or history, get your hands on this book. 5/5.
