  3. 3:33 What a beautiful cover!
    After reading about an 88 year old WWII Veteran being beaten to death by teens. It's nice to see that people really do still care about the "greatest generation". :'(

  20. Hi everyone! You're all so speedy! I'll have to try the puzzle myself later today (BUSY week!!). This is such a fun and unique way to conduct a giveaway.

    And yes, I agree - Revell did an amazing job with this cover! I love the shade of blue, and the model really conveys Georgie's sunny personality.

  22. It took me 5:01min to do the puzzle. I am looking forward to reading On Distant Shores. I think I will really enjoy it. It will be my first book by Sarah Sundin. I am anxious to read some of her work, as I've only recently become acquainted with her by some of her interviews and blog writings.
