Uglies by Scott Westerfeld

This book/series is about rebel Tally Youngblood. Tally and her friends do whatever they can to overcome the Special Circumstances. This book takes place in the future and has many new inventions in it. In Tally’s world, everyone is either a Littlie, an Ugly, a Pretty, a Crumbly, or any type of Special Circumstance or surgeon. When you turn sixteen, you undergo a huge surgery where they redo your body to make you a pretty but this surgery has a not-so-good addition that changes the world when Tally comes along. Read the book to find out!
At the end of the first book of this series, there is a main quote by Tally that just connects with the next book Pretties.The best things about this book were the many adventures Tally went through to try to overcome Special Circumstances. The worst things about this book were when people died (sorry!) and when they went too far into the scientifics about the new, futuristic inventions. Anyone who enjoys realistic fiction with a futuristic/scientific twist will enjoy this book!
