    “I picked it up because my 7th graders couldn't put it down. Uglies was much better, Pretties was a tease that left me without the degree of adoration that I had for the first. I'd even consider using it for a class in the future. Has both male and female connections too!”

    “A great series of books for teens and young adults. I picked it up from my 14 year old daughter and got hooked. Takes place in our future and addresses advances in technology, it's effects on civil liberties, government intervention in behavior control and how young adults in this society fight to maintain their individuality. The character's are real and deal with typical teen emotions, fears and desires.”
