The Uglies by Scott Westerfield


Emily Tobin

         The book that I read was Uglies by Scott Westerfield. The main character Tally lives in a world with separate places. One is Uglyville and the other is New Pretty Town. Tally lived in Uglyville at first but then she gets an operation into a pretty. She meets up a new friend named Shay. All of Tally's old friends became pretty. Shay isn't quite positive if she wants to enter New Pretty Town.They both have a dilemma weather to be pretty or stay ugly.
           The part I liked in the book was when Tally sneaked into New Pretty Town with a mask looking like a pig so no one knew who she was. She wanted to see her old friend Peris. The part I didn't like in the book was when Tally and her friend Shay went to some forbidden place called "The Ruins" to meet Shay's friend David but he never showed up.
            I recommend this book to anyone who likes to read fiction books. I would say 12-14 year old's would enjoy reading this. I rate this book a 3 out of 4 because there were some interesting parts and some were not really as interesting.
