//Demon's Surrender// by Sarah Rees Brennan

In my six years of promoting the Flume, I find that students are exasperated when a selection is not the first in the series. Although I like the series, I don't like that this is #3. And #1 was on this year's Flume list. Shouldn't we be promoting other authors? If students liked #1 (and read it because we promoted it) they will choose to read others in the series on their own.

This doesn't stand alone. Gail Zachariah, Keene Public Library

The titles that make the final 13 list must stand alone. I don't think we have put titles on in the past that were part of a series unless they stand alone.
