Book summary


Fifteen-year-old Tally Youngblood lives in an artificial, isolated future society where biology is destiny, and everyone dreams of their 16th birthday--when they will be surgically transformed--with new skin, plastic cheekbones, and carved bones--from an ugly to a pretty. Living in Uglyville dorms from the age of 12, uglies spend their time playing pranks and spying on New Pretty Town, where all the pretty teens get to party and play their lives away. But Tally's future is derailed when her friend Shay, who doesn't want to be pretty, runs away. Tally is forced to find her, or never become pretty. This is the first book in a trilogy, soon to be followed by PRETTIES and SPECIALS. Scott Westerfeld is also the author of the bestselling Midnighters series. A 2005 School Library Journal Best Book.
