The second installment of Scott Westerfeld's international bestselling Uglies series - the global phenomenon that started the dystopian trend. In Tally's world, looks are all that matters. And now that she's finally undertaken the surgery to become a 'Pretty', everything seems perfect: her looks are flawless, her clothes are cool, her boyfriend is totally gorgeous, and she's completely popular. But beneath the fun of non-stop parties, high-tech luxury and apparent total freedom, Tally can't stop a nagging sense that something is wrong. Something important. Then a message from her 'Ugly' past arrives, forcing Tally to remember the truth she learned before her transformation, and the fun stops cold. Because the true price of this perfect world is more than Tally is willing to pay... Praise for Uglies 'Fast paced, exciting and thought-provoking.' The Bookseller's Choice 'Superb sci-fi.' Amanda Craig, The Times Supplement 'Westerfeld introduces thought-provoking issues' Publishers Weekly 'The longing for fairy-tale beauty has never looked so sinister' Amanda Craig, The Times 'With a beginning and ending that pack hefty punches, this introduction to a dystopic future promises an exciting series.' Kirkus *starred review* 'This exciting story makes you realise how important it is not to judge people by appearances.' Newcastle Upon Tyne Journal 'This book is a real thrill-ride and the world utterly convincing.' Trashionista.com 'Fun, and the many by-the-skin-of-your-teeth escapes and hoverboard chases, plus the non-stop action plotting were enough to catch my attention and have me eagerly wanting more.'

Im enjoying this series. I cannot wait to read the next one. I actually liked this one better than the first. Tally has gone through a lot of character development. Zane was a nice new introduction. I would recommend this series.

Wowya!!!!!!
"This book shows so much about today. Everyone cares too much about the outside-pretty or ugly-and what people think. Westerfield is an amazing author and i most-definitely LOVED this book! I really recommend this to ALL kids-through age 110 .A thrilling novel! It is one-of-a-kind and there's no other book like it! it is one of the most unique and meaningful book I've ever read. Most girls & Guys can relate to Tally-the wanting to be pretty and exactly like everyone else-and it is so true. There were some very surprising things happening when Tally and Shay go on an adventure that will change both their live forever!! Will they become pretty or Special???? You should definitely read this never forgetting and unbelievable novel! hope you enjoyed what i thought of the book Uglies. Just to let u know EVERY book in this trilogy is AWSOME. The 4th Book is just as Good as all the rest. ENJOY & HAPPY READING!!!!"

Not too bad
Like Uglies, story line is great. Characters are getting out of control for my personal taste. It's almost annoying reading their conversations. After this book I really dislike the main character, Tally. To be a heroine she is way to selfish and yet she fights the system that enforces self. Granted, her character is only 16 so she is very immature. I was just hoping after reading Uglies that her character would take off more in leui of the steps she was making from book 1. Oh well. That's part of the treasure in finding a really fantastic book!

great sci-fi book
While this second in a trilogy is written for teens, I liked it as an adult; I can't wait to order and read the third one!
