Book Reviews

We are reviewing the trilogy of Uglies, Pretties, and Specials. All books are rated out of 5 stars.

Uglies- This book received 4 stars. It received four stars because it is hard to get into in the beginning. But once you do it is very good and keeps you wondering what will happen next. This book is set in the future where the communities make all their kids “ugly.” And when they turn sixteen, they have a surgery to make the kids “perfect.” Then the kids go live in a different part of town that no one but the “perfect” kids can go in. But when Tally turns sixteen the town officials make her find her friend Shay, who ran away before she got her surgery.

Pretties- This is the second book in the trilogy. It received four stars for the same reason as Uglies. In this book Tally and Shay have both gotten their surgery and are living with the other pretties. But as they live there longer they start to uncover many secrets about the town and the surgeries.

Specials- This book is the last one in the trilogy. It also received four stars for the same reasons as Uglies and Pretties. In this book Tally and Shay have received a different surgery and special abilities. The town officials call them and the others like them the Specials. Tally and Shay are the leaders of their own group of Specials called The Cutters.
