I'm always confused as to why so many people dislike Uglies. I agree with David ... the world-building is so fantastic, and it's really interesting to see how Tally changes from book to book. One of my favorite series ever!

Not sure either. I just read enough negative GR friend reviews to think I should skip it before. I may try it now though.

I think you might like them, Heidi! It's worth a shot if you ask me. ;)

I don't know, I can't think of any reason Heidi would really dislike it. Like I said, the world-building is really good. There is some romance, but it's not stupid or overbearing. :P

Whoohoo! I hope you like Perks, Heidi. And also Dust & Decay of course, but I know you already liked the first book. :D

I haven't read the Uglies series but I liked Westerfeld's Midnighters series.
Brigid - I can think of one reason Heidi wouldn't like Uglies...she's uber picky! LOL! She is the only person I know that when she recommends a book, I know I HAVE to read it. :)
Edgar - DUFF as in
? I really liked that book.

True––but I'm fairly picky myself and I do love that series. And I'm just basing my guess on books I know Heidi likes & doesn't like. ;)

Yup! I have to finish it soon for my book club at school, so I'm starting it now ... haha. :)

Well now I have to read the Uglies just to let everyone know if Brigid correctly guessed my tastes!! hahahaha
Shannen I will take your compliment and run....

I'm curious to see what you think of it too, Heidi. And that really was a compliment!

Virtual punch in the face coming up - hahaha!

Brigid I finished Perks of a Wallflower and thought it was good -- have you read Crazy
? It has a similar topic and I think it was excellent!

Darren wrote: "Heidi, it's not a really popular series, it was written by a New Zealender. It's one of those series that slipped under the radar."
Ahhh I see.
Ahhh I see.


One of my faves, hope you enjoy the rest of it!!

I totally relate to you! And I'm even worse... I'm 34 books behind. XD
Ahhh I think I'm like 10 books behind ... but I didn't set an extremely high goal, either. Haha. O_o Hopefully I'll be able to catch up over winter break or something. Mehhh.
That goal thing stressed me out too bad so I lowered it (twice - hahaha). I am now only like 3 behind! LOVE Book Thief ----Shannen needs to read it ASAP!!
Still working on a few other books, but my wonderful mom sent me this in the mail:
AHHH. I just know I won't be able to resist....

AHHH. I just know I won't be able to resist....
