About the book
Written for young adults, Scott Westerfeld's dystopian novel is set three hundred years in the future, after the collapse of an oil-dependent civilization, when everyone receives an operation on their sixteenth birthday that turns them from an Ugly into a Pretty. Tally Youngblood is almost sixteen and can hardly wait. Then her new friend Shay, who is not sure she wants to be pretty, runs away days before their shared birthday. The authorities give Tally a choice: track Shay down and hand her over, or stay ugly for good. It began the Uglies series, followed by Pretties, Specials and Extras, and in 2018 four more novels, the Impostors series, were announced.
Brandon Sanderson said he read Uglies and enjoyed it.
