What Members Thought

My review is for the series as a whole. Uglies is the story of a dystopian future. All people go through surgeries at 16 to become pretties - before that they are called uglies, and live apart in special dorms. Tally Youngblood is an ugly on the eve of her 16th birthday. The trilogy tells her story, as she finds a group of people who have not gone through the operation.
Uglies is fairly compelling. I liked tally, and I was interested in her story. The world itself seems pretty poorly realized, ...more

“Perhaps the logical conclusion of everyone looking the same is everyone thinking the same.” The cover never appealed to me, but when this was becoming a Netflix movie, I picked it up. Loved it and can’t wait to read the next one.

This was a very thought provoking story, and I liked every bit of it. The characters are well-written and the story very captivating.
