New post for bookworms; Uglies, by Scott Westerfield.
If you, or someone you know, liked the Hunger Games, then they must try this:
(set in the future, when our race have been almost extinguished, and the world that we know has completely changed) Tally Youngblood is an Ugly; a girl waiting eagerly for her sixteenth birthday, when she will have an operation that will turn her into a Pretty; a beautiful being who's life consists of partying, partying, and well, partying!
But when Tally goes into the Pretty part of the city, on a secret mission to talk to New Pretty and old best friend Peris, she meets a strange girl, who turns her world upside-down.
I couldn't put the book down, and the idea that this new culture would look down on our current generation with such disgust and confusion, is very interesting, though if you're not one for slightly eccentric books or twisted plots, then this is not the book for you.
