Hopefully after reading it, they will see that this perfection isn't real and quite boring. The pretties all look the same and just go to parties all day. At least the Uglies formed as a society to work together and make a real community.

I like how he took such a topic that runs rampart in our society and showed us the other side. Teenagers are bombarded with celebrities with perfect hair, face, size 0 body, this book shows it is okay to be different.
I like when Tally discovers the magazines and they tried to explain why people look different.
