Title: GRADUATION DAY (THE TESTING #3)
Author: Joelle Charbonneau
Publisher: HMH Books for Young Readers
Expected Publication Date: June 17, 2014
In book three of the Testing series, the United Commonwealth wants to eliminate the rebel alliance fighting to destroy The Testing for good. Cia is ready to lead the charge, but will her lethal classmates follow her into battle?
She wants to put an end to the Testing
In a scarred and brutal future, The United Commonwealth teeters on the brink of all-out civil war. The rebel resistance plots against a government that rules with cruelty and cunning. Gifted student and Testing survivor, Cia Vale, vows to fight.
But she can't do it alone.
This is the chance to lead that Cia has trained for - but who will follow? Plunging through layers of danger and deception, Cia must risk the lives of those she loves--and gamble on the loyalty of her lethal classmates.
Who can Cia trust?
The stakes are higher than ever-lives of promise cut short or fulfilled; a future ruled by fear or hope--in the electrifying conclusion to Joelle Charbonneau's epic Testing trilogy. Ready or not…it's Graduation Day.
The Final Test is the Deadliest!

I am a storyteller at heart. I have performed in a variety of operas, musical theatre and children's theatre productions across the Chicagoland area. While I'm happy to perform for an audience, I am equally delighted to teach private voice lessons and use my experience from the stage to create compelling characters on the page. I am the author of the Rebecca Robbins mystery series (Minotaur Books), The Paige Marshall Glee Club mysteries (Berkley) and The Testing YA triology (Houghton Mifflin Harcourt).
I have heard so many things about this trilogy, some very good, others not as much... I hope you'll love the final book!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing!
I didn't love the first book. It was VERY much like THG. And there were some other technical issues that I had. The second book was much better though there were still some technical issues.
DeleteI have book one, but I still have not read it! I know that this trilogy is extremely popular, and it's been optioned for film? That's so cool. And purple is my favorite color :D I hope you read and enjoy this book!
ReplyDeleteCheck out my WoW post!
Has it been optioned? I have not heard that. I'm not a lover of the covers, but covers don't always make the book I suppose.
DeleteYes, it was announced in JUNE.
DeleteAlso, I love the color of the cover, not necessarily the cover itself. Heh.
I want to start this series so bad! Just need to find the time;-) Awesome pick! Thanks for stopping by my WOW.
ReplyDeleteIt took me a bit to get into it with the first book, but I pushed through to book 2 and I'm glad I did. Enjoy!
DeleteI'm reading The Independent Study at the moment so I skipped on reading the blurb. I like the idea of the story very much despite it's similarities to THG. I hope you love the ending!

I liked INDEPENDENT STUDY better than THE TESTING for sure. Enjoy!
DeleteI've heard great things of the first two, but I haven't had the chance to read them. I hope you enjoy the book though :D
ReplyDeleteMy WoW :)
