The second installment of Scott Westerfeld's New York Times
bestselling and award-winning Uglies series--a global phenomenon that
started the dystopian trend.
Tally has finally become pretty. Now her looks are beyond perfect, her
clothes are awesome, her boyfriend is totally hot, and she's completely
popular. It's everything she's ever wanted.
But beneath all the fun--the nonstop parties, the high-tech luxury, the
total freedom--is a nagging sense that something's wrong. Something
important. Then a message from Tally's ugly past arrives. Reading it,
Tally remembers what's wrong with pretty life, and the fun stops cold.
Now she has to choose between fighting to forget what she knows and
fighting for her life--because the authorities don't intend to let
anyone with this information survive.
