Another amazing story from Ruta Sepetys!! She has one if the most engaging voices in YA I've ever read. She has this amazing ability to make me care deeply about her characters immediately and then puts them ( and me) through the emotional ringer. I can tell that her stories are very well researched and make me want to explore more, and dig deeper into her time period she is writing about, while not seeming like she's lecturing you. Her characters are well developed and Christian was one of the most compelling characters I've ever read. I only wanted good things for him and I was terrified to finish the story, but desperate to see what happens next. I liked the inclusion of government case files about the characters, and the mystery trying to figure out which name was who based on the information we knew, or thought we knew. It kept me hooked from beginning to end, and I can't recommend it enough!
