I remember liking it when i read it, but now it's been quite awhile since then, and not many parts of it stick out to me as memorable :/

That happens to me when I read the sequel of a book after a long time.I need to go back to the first book,if I forgot anything.

I think Uglies was a book where the concept impressed me more than the story.

[Jalyn]

It's been a while since I read Uglies too and I also really liked the concept, but I can't say it was my favorite dystopian series. Don't get me wrong, I still liked it, but there are other series out there that I loved more. It was a lot better than a lot of other dystopian books too though (*cough* Article 5 *cough*).

That's what saved the book if you ask me.(view spoiler)[The whole changing the brains while plastic surgery (hide spoiler)] business is the only thing that made the book typical dystopia.

Why is Article 5 that bad?

I gave it 3 stars, but now I feel like I should go back and give it 2. The MC was really weak. She drove me crazy with her whiny attitude and stupid decisions.

[Mishma]

Thanks for that Jalyn.I had that in my TBR.I hate whiny characters.

No problem :) I hate them too!

[Stormy]

[Stormy]

Pretty minds - (view spoiler)[Lesions in the brain? So that explains why a lot of pretties have changed. I wondered why no pretties ever visit the uglyville anymore when they used to have friends there and ugliness seems to be a very shallow reason. (hide spoiler)]
