Fountains of Silence has been on my To Read list for months and I have been counting down the days until its release. Ruta Sepetys is a master at her craft. She writes YA historical fiction that can entertain all readers.Her throughly researched novels introduce little known historical events, that have had a major impact on those involved, to young adult ( and adult) readers. Fountains of Silence already promises to be a fall bestseller and, like her other novels, will not disappoint.
