The first installment of Scott Westerfeld’s New York Times bestselling and award-winning Uglies series—a global phenomenon that started the dystopian trend.
Tally is about to turn sixteen, and she can’t wait. In just a few weeks she’ll have the operation that will turn her from a repellent ugly into a stunningly attractive pretty. And as a pretty, she’ll be catapulted into a high-tech paradise where her only job is to have fun.
But Tally’s new friend Shay isn’t sure she wants to become a pretty. When Shay runs away, Tally learns about a whole new side of the pretty world—and it isn’t very pretty. The authorities offer Tally a choice: find her friend and turn her in, or never turn pretty at all. Tally’s choice will change her world forever.

Nothing Remarkable
3By $k¥£The book was ok but it wasn’t comparable to most dystopian books at all.Amazing
5By UnicornzealotWonderful book with great plot development. Been a favorite since I was a teenager.Never gets old
5By CarissalanaCouldn’t tell you how many times I’ve read this book, but it’s timeless. I think I read it a few times a year. This book truly transports you into its world and you really feel as though you’re seeing it and seeing Tally for who she is. Amazing.Excellent Book
5By khall005Easy read!Great!
5By ZisforZoeyIt was a really cool book and it was entertaining to imagine the atmosphere the were in since it has more of a sci-fi feel to it. Excited for the movie too!My favorite YA dystopian series
5By Becc-0Seriously awesome stories. Even enjoyed the forth book extras (tho not as much). If your into hunger games, the reds queen, divergent, etc series then you’ll really enjoy this one. They’ve freaking sold the rights to this book to install into movie format like 15 years ago but we still have no movies yet! Arg.Nostalgia at it’s finest
5By JkjjjndbdI read this back when it was first published, and I have to say after rereading it, it’s just as fantastic as the first time!Amazing
