Description

Now a major motion picture streaming on Netflix!

The first installment of Scott Westerfeld’s New York Times bestselling and award-winning Uglies series—a global phenomenon that started the dystopian trend.

Tally is about to turn sixteen, and she can’t wait. In just a few weeks she’ll have the operation that will turn her from a repellent ugly into a stunningly attractive pretty. And as a pretty, she’ll be catapulted into a high-tech paradise where her only job is to have fun.

But Tally’s new friend Shay isn’t sure she wants to become a pretty. When Shay runs away, Tally learns about a whole new side of the pretty world—and it isn’t very pretty. The authorities offer Tally a choice: find her friend and turn her in, or never turn pretty at all. Tally’s choice will change her world forever.

    Couldn’t tell you how many times I’ve read this book, but it’s timeless. I think I read it a few times a year. This book truly transports you into its world and you really feel as though you’re seeing it and seeing Tally for who she is. Amazing.

  • Excellent Book

    It was a really cool book and it was entertaining to imagine the atmosphere the were in since it has more of a sci-fi feel to it. Excited for the movie too!

  • My favorite YA dystopian series

    Seriously awesome stories. Even enjoyed the forth book extras (tho not as much). If your into hunger games, the reds queen, divergent, etc series then you’ll really enjoy this one. They’ve freaking sold the rights to this book to install into movie format like 15 years ago but we still have no movies yet! Arg.

  • Nostalgia at it’s finest

    I’ve always seen this story in my middle school years but I haven’t picked it up until now. I enjoyed reading this but I do think it could’ve been a bit more on the plot but I loved it regardless.
