The Testing by Joelle Charbonneau

I own this book and cannot wait to read it. If you have read this already give us your thoughts and opinions but lets try to avoid spoilers please.

I own this book too but I haven't read it either! So excited!

Oh we can try to read this at the same time. lol, I know it'll be last minute for me. I am horrible sometimes at getting distracted like I did last month.

I'm usually pretty good about it if I'm not stressing. We should totally try to read it together!

Yes we should.

Yay!!! So excited about this!!!

So am I. I think Leela and I are going to read it during the read-a-thon together.

Yes! That will be a great time to start it!

Waiting, waiting , waiting for this from the library.....

Yay this one is on scribd. That means I will definitely be reading it.

YAY! LOL

I am trying to catch up on everyone's comments.

We understand!!! I'm trying to do the same thing!!!!

I already own this book but I'm also going to wait till the read-a-thon to pick it up.

I own this book as well, and I'm so excited to finally read it! I don't know when I'll get around to reading it this month, but I'll probably read it in one sitting, haha.

Started the audiobook of this today. At first I wasn't sure about the narrator but she's growing on me. I'm on disc 2 and so far not much has happened but it seems like its going to be good. Cia has just left to go to the testing.

I am excited to start this book during the read-a-thon next weekend. It seems like a short book and one that I should finish in no time.

Yeah I should be able to finish it quick too. So excited!

Yeah, so right now I am reading Cold Spell by Jackson Pearce. I like it so far. It's a re-telling of the Snow Queen. I've been really big into fairy tell re-tellings recently. I really want to get my hands on fathomless and sisters red by Jackson Pearce but I have not been able to find them. *sad face*

I looove fairytale retellings!!!

I have gotten into them again. The books Jackson Pearce has done are the ones I know I definitely want to get my hands on. is a Snow Queen Retelling, is a Hansel and Gretel Retelling, is a Little Mermaid Retelling, and is a retelling of Rose Red and Snow White. The last two are the ones I still need to get my hands on that I haven't been able to find. I also recently got that is supposed to be a retelling of Sleeping Beauty. I want to find some retellings of Beauty and the Beast since well I love that story.

I marked Asleep on my TBR list. Apparently it's a re-telling of 'Sleeping Beauty'. Alice is the aftermath of 'Alice in Wonderland', except more dark and thrilling. I really recommend the latter; I loved reading it a lot.

Thank you. I will be looking into these. Please recommend any and all fairy tale retellings. lol

I'm dying to read Alice. I have to check out all the others you guys have recommended.

I've been going back and forth on Beastly especially since I watched the movie.

Btw I'm about a third of the way into The Testing and it's getting really good!

I love retellings... I'm tempted to buy all of Alex Finn's collections.

I have seen them I just have not gotten any of them. I really love Cold Spell it's part of a series I think but it seems like you can read them separately. If that is not the case I don't think I'm really going to care because two of them are kind of hard to find right now.

Marissa Meyer's Lunar Chronicles, starting off with Cinder, is a series of re-telling of fairytales? Except quite dystopian and sci-fi... I tried the first one but couldn't quite get into it. Nevertheless, many others really recommend this series!

I have read those. I need to get to Winter. I begged my husband for it for Christmas and still have not read it. That was the case with a lot of my books. I should go did those books out and start reading those.

I am so excited to read this, this weekend during the read a thon

I finished and it was awesome!

I just finished it, it's very good. If you enjoyed Divergent then you will like this book.

Just started, and was up to 1 am reading yesterday. Can't wait to continue

I started it today! I am about a hundred pages in. Leela have you started yet? How far are you if you have? What do you think so far? It seems to have a bit of a feel with the Giver at the beginning. I am not complaining about that but it's what it kind of feels like to me without everything being pretty much black and white. If that makes sense.

I just woke up so I haven't started! But I'll be starting it right now!

Let me know what you think. I love it so far. Going to Read more when I get home from picking the oldest up from school.

Oh I love it so far too! I'm at page 50 now. I can't read more til after work tho.

yay!

Three Quarters of the way through, and I have till 10 am tomorow to finish

What do you think of it TessaMarie?

Fantastic

I think the same thing. I'm about to read more.

I just finished the book, Andrea. I liked the book a lot. I just didn't felt a lot of deja vu moments happening and a lot of predictably. I compared it to the Hunger Games and The Culling in my book blog. I still really liked the book though. I think that was my only complaint. Lol.

Might I just add, and I just noticed this, that I finished this book literally minutes before it became the 22nd. XD Meaning, I completed my Read-A-Thon goal! <3

yay

I will sadly not be finishing this book at least now, because my Scribd free Trial ran out before I could finish. :( If anyone nows where I could find it onling please let me know

Oh no that sucks!!! Maybe if you sign up with a different email address you can do another trial? Idk. Do libraries over there let you borrow digital books?

I don't know, and I cant sign up for another Trial, it was a Special code that has now expired.

Aw , Tessa! Check the libraries there no??

nope
