Uglies by Scott Westerfeld

My Rating: 5 stars


I’m not going to lie, but I absolutely loved this book! The whole series is great actually. But this was a really good way to start it all off. So this takes place in the future, not the type of future you’re thinking about: the stereotypical flying cars, etc. Although this does have hover-boards included, there are many more original ideas. Okay, so the main character, Tally Youngblood, is about to turn sixteen. And when you turn sixteen you get this surgery to make you a “Pretty” since you are born “Ugly”. But everything goes wrong when she meets a group of kids the “Smokies” who don’t want to change their faces.
