Pretties

Pretties by Scott Westerfeld, 370 pages


The sequel to Uglies starts with Tally in the City.  She has had the operation to make herself pretty and loves hanging out with her friends.  She hopes that the Crims will accept her as part of their group and she is sure that she will be happy forever.  Until someone from her past, Croy, shows up and reminds her that not everything in the City is as great as it seems.  All of the people who have had the operation have also had something done to their brains so that they are docile and never question the system and don’t think very much.  Tally and the leader of the Crims, Zane, want something more.  And when they discover the pills that Croy hid for her that are supposed to reverse the operation, they decide to each take one and escape the City as soon as possible.  This is a good sequel for fans of the series and teens who like fantasy and science fiction stories.
