Series: The Testing
by Author Joelle Charbonneau
Graduation Day (2014)
I liked this series because it teaches some valuable lessons about how far we can trust our leaders, however I feel that there was entirely too much death and destruction. The book also allowed too many secrets to be kept for the populous. I think that the moral would have been better served if...
The Testing 3: Graduation Day (2014)
Well it seems that this series in my opinion although showing great promise at the beginning seemed to end not with the bang I was hoping for but with a bit of a sizzle. The ending was not only highly predictable but also highly anti-climatic. The battle looming throughout the first two books cam...
Het Examen (2014)
ok I do like these books but I absolutely hate it when authors rehash everything from previous books. once in a while ok sure but in every paragraph? it's not as bad in the series as in others I have read but there is a lot. give your readers some credit don't assume they won't remember. its anno...
Independent Study (2014)
Audiobook - Horrible. I didn't like the first book, but we wanted another audio book and this was there. I can't stand stories where the main character is so obviously stupid in her actions and this book is exactly that. This is especially annoying since she's supposed to be super smart. Plus, it...
Die Auslese - Nichts vergessen und nie vergeben (2000)
Very satisfying so far. My feeling that this series would be an excellent suggestion for fans of the Hunger Games/Divergent variety has been absolutely confirmed. I devoured this second book in the trilogy and look forward to the next installment. The lead character, Cia, remains likeable even as...
De Studie (2014)
I'm still not relating to Cia at all, and I still don't get or believe her relationship with Tomas, but luckily that's not a main plot in the second book. As a middle book, not bad though. I just don't think the whole students killing each other and no one really knows about it is very believable...
The Testing (2013)
Wow. All I can say is wow! This is literally one the absolute craziest books I have ever read! When I started the book I never expected the testing to be like it was! Every step of the testing process shocked me! There aren't many authors who can write horror like this! In a time when dystopian f...
De Test (2013)
The Testing. Written by Joelle Charbonneau. I grab my tape recorder; turning it on thinking of all my past sequences. My love. My previous life will be all forgotten, only recorded on this device for only me. My shaking hand grabs the play button whispering a sadden story of this past month. The...
Die Auslese - Nur die Besten überleben (2013)
I love this book. I started it last Wednesday night and finished it tonight which is Tuesday for another 6 minutes. 6 days and completed. Just as much days it took me to read The Hunger Games.I will say this it was very similar to The Hunger Games, The Maze Runner (especially after the 3rd test a...
