I liked this book better than I thought I would. It is a very interesting commentary on what it would be like to live in a world where plastic surgery was required when you reached a certain age. This books deals with a group of rebels who create their own community to remain like themselves, or what the plastic surgery doll people call, Ugly. Very interesting!

Better than I expected. I picked up this book for free and a few chapters in, thought it was just going to be another YA dystopian society book but it was different enough that I kept reading. I'm glad I did. It's different enough to be compelling and the author is a good story teller. I may check out the rest of the series. ...more

It took awhile to get going but it is a good story. I am looking forward to reading pretties. There is not a more real teenage condition than being ugly or pretty. It is used well to create and interesting world in which you are either one or the other.
