    <body><![CDATA[Like the other books in the Uglies trilogy, Extras is fun and a very fast read. I read this book in about 2 and 1/2 hours, pretty much non-stop. <br/><br/>However, Extras raised the same prickly issues for me that the other books in the series did.

    <![CDATA[It's a few years after rebel Tally Youngblood took down the uglies/pretties/specials regime. Without those strict roles and rules, the world is in a complete cultural renaissance. &quot;Tech-heads&quot; flaunt their latest gadgets, &quot;kickers&quot; spread gossip and trends, and &quot;surge monkeys&quot; are hooked on extreme plastic surgery. And it's all monitored on a bazillion different cameras. The world is like a gigantic game of American Idol. Whoever is getting the most buzz gets the most votes. Popularity rules.<br/><br/>As if being fifteen doesn't suck enough, Aya Fuse's rank of 451,369 is so low, she's a total nobody. An extra. But that's just until she gets to kick a good story for herself.<br/><br/>Then Aya meets a clique of girls who pull crazy tricks, yet are deeply secretive of it. Aya wants desperately to kick their story, to show everyone how intensely cool the Sly Girls are. But doing so would propel her out of extra-land and into the world of fame, celebrity...and extreme danger. A world she's not prepared for.]]>

    <body><![CDATA[I just finished this and while I didn't like it as much as Uglies (the best in the series) it was better than Specials.  I think one of the things I liked the most about it was that it was set in Japan and the characters didn't speak English and they talked about the differences between the cities. ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/6898353">more...</a>]]></body>

    <![CDATA[It's a few years after rebel Tally Youngblood took down the uglies/pretties/specials regime. Without those strict roles and rules, the world is in a complete cultural renaissance. &quot;Tech-heads&quot; flaunt their latest gadgets, &quot;kickers&quot; spread gossip and trends, and &quot;surge monkeys&quot; are hooked on extreme plastic surgery. And it's all monitored on a bazillion different cameras. The world is like a gigantic game of American Idol. Whoever is getting the most buzz gets the most votes. Popularity rules.<br/><br/>As if being fifteen doesn't suck enough, Aya Fuse's rank of 451,369 is so low, she's a total nobody. An extra. But that's just until she gets to kick a good story for herself.<br/><br/>Then Aya meets a clique of girls who pull crazy tricks, yet are deeply secretive of it. Aya wants desperately to kick their story, to show everyone how intensely cool the Sly Girls are. But doing so would propel her out of extra-land and into the world of fame, celebrity...and extreme danger. A world she's not prepared for.]]>

    <body><![CDATA[I can't believe that I am finished with this series.  (What to start on next, hmmm.)<br/><br/>This was my least favorite of the series.  I really liked it for the first half.

Its plot wasn't very engaging, and once they figure out what the Extras are doing, it jumps to the party scene.

    <![CDATA[It's a few years after rebel Tally Youngblood took down the uglies/pretties/specials regime. Without those strict roles and rules, the world is in a complete cultural renaissance. &quot;Tech-heads&quot; flaunt their latest gadgets, &quot;kickers&quot; spread gossip and trends, and &quot;surge monkeys&quot; are hooked on extreme plastic surgery. And it's all monitored on a bazillion different cameras. The world is like a gigantic game of American Idol. Whoever is getting the most buzz gets the most votes. Popularity rules.<br/>As if being fifteen doesn't suck enough, Aya Fuse's rank of 451,369 is so low, she's a total nobody. An extra. But Aya doesn't care; she just wants to lie low with her drone, Moggle. And maybe kick a good story for herself.<br/>Then Aya meets a clique of girls who pull crazy tricks, yet are deeply secretive of it. Aya wants desperately to kick their story, to show everyone how intensely cool the Sly Girls are. But doing so would propel her out of extra-land and into the world of fame, celebrity...and extreme danger. A world she's not prepared for.]]>

    <body><![CDATA[Enjoyed this, as I have the other books in the series. It's one of those trilogies-turned-longer things, but not badly self-indulgent with it; the choice of a different narrator and a new set of challenges helps. It zips along really well, and has some real depth to it too; the earlier books brought...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/42798858">more...</a>]]></body>
