Dear Ruta, I regularly give book talks to my 12th graders. They include a brief read aloud. For example. What passages would you suggest to share with classes that would reveal enough but also conceal enough to get them curious about the novel? Hiw would you introduce the book to students in just a sentence or two? Oona Marie Abrams Chatham, New Jersey

Good Morning! At 6:47 this morning (12.08.15) I received a notification from Goodreads that Salt To the Sea had been listed for a giveaway. When I used the link to enter a message to the effect of "This giveaway is hidden" was received. I would love the opportunity to win this novel as I so enjoyed Between Shades of Gray. Any insight as to the situation with the giveaway? Thank you, Angela Ryser Bahling
