A young girl begins to question her picture-perfect world in this 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 her world—and it isn’t very pretty. The authorities offer Tally a choice: find her friend and turn her in, or always be an ugly. Tally’s decision leads her on a journey of self-discovery and first love—but it’s the seeds of rebellion that will change her life and her world forever.

Became a chore to read :(
"I'm so sad I hated this because I thought the concept had so much potential T-T. It was as cliché as it could possibly be. The writing felt very juvenile (even for a YA book) and the characters were very bland and unlikeable. The plot was predictable and the romance was unnecessary. I was very unmotivated to read it towards the middle/end of the novel."
— Eliya (2/5)

"I enjoyed this reread of this book. The character of Shay and David were probably my favourite characters. I am really excited to see what book two has to offer. Highly recommend!"
— Tina (4/5)
Interesting concept
"I really liked the plot/idea of this story. It was well executed and had really good high tension moments even though there were many slow parts. I overall really enjoyed this book so much that I continued to read the last three books in the series."
— Sonia (4/5)
