| The Testing Trilogy | comment |
A dystopian Young Adult trilogy written by Joelle Charbonneau. In it, sixteen-year-old Daddy's Girl Malencia "Cia" Vale, from destitute Five Lakes Colony, is selected along with three other students to undergo testing to become a university student in Tosu City. This is all Cia has dreamed of for years, so why isn't her father more excited for her? | |

| The Testing Trilogy / int_1029541b | comment |
Book Smart: Despite being the youngest of her class, Cia is one of the smartest students in her district and she did so well in school she was ahead of her peers. | |

| The Testing Trilogy / int_1237828f | comment |

Cruel and Unusual Death | |
| The Testing Trilogy / int_1e584efa | comment |
Cruel and Unusual Death: After ingesting a poisonous plant during the second stage of the Testing, Malachi makes a fatal mistake later on, resulting in a nail going through his eye and, it is implied, entering his brain. He does not die instantly, but begins to seize on the floor of the Testing room before finally going still, with his (remaining) eye staying open the entire time. | |

| The Testing Trilogy / int_21d70919 | comment |
Crapsack World: The United States outside of the colonies is essentially unlivable after the Seven Stages War, and even life in the colonies has only recently started improving through the work of University graduates. | |

| The Testing Trilogy / int_2e77c628 | comment |
The Baby of the Bunch: Not only is the sixteen-year-old Cia the youngest in her family, she is the youngest in her class (which causes her to be afraid she'd fail). She is also at least a year younger than most of the other Testing candidates, having started a year earlier than required. | |

Disproportionate Retribution | |
| The Testing Trilogy / int_50b05d30 | comment |
Disproportionate Retribution: Instead of letting failed Testing candidates return to their home districts, even in disgrace, those who are not outright killed during the course of the Testing are genetically mutated into horrible monsters for future Testing events. Reminder that these are smart teenagers who could still do great work to help improve the colonies' futures, but instead must die for not being good enough for the University. | |

Big Brother Is Watching: From the moment that the Testing candidates are picked up from their home districts, their every moment is watched by cameras. Cia is sickened to realize that some official watched as Ryme killed herself and did nothing to stop or help her. | |

Children Forced to Kill | |
| The Testing Trilogy / int_949819b6 | comment |
Children Forced to Kill: While "forced" is maybe too strong a word, teenagers as young as 16 are certainly not discouraged from thinning out the competition during the fourth stage of the Testing, and it seems unlikely that Ryme would have been punished harshly for trying to poison her fellow candidates as early as the first stage. | |
