This is the third book of the Uglies series. Tally youngblood is a teen girl who before was a ugly. Her world was turned upside down. She has done what the Specials(the people who control the city)has told her to do. After her becoming a pretty she made a mistake and now she is forced to become a special. I really like imagining things in the book. That is the only reason i read books. When Tally changed i imagined how she would look like. She also has a Skintenna (A communication thing under the skin that can communicate with other specials)now which makes the book more cool. The author says that tally has been remade into a scary human.
Tally has been remade to a special called a cutter. A cutter is a younger and cooler type of special. The cutter group was lead by her best friend. Shay. After Tally has been remade to a special, she goes on her fist mission. They try to look for a outsider. They found one but, they have made a unexpected turn. They go into an unforgettable mess with the specials and the Smokes.
The fact that they still had the Smoke blows me away. I thought the specials had already killed that place. But turned out it made a new one. The New Smoke. This one is much more stronger, bigger, and more caring to those runaways.
Zane is Tally's boyfriend, but Zane died. It is very sad. I don't wan't tally to think that its her fault. I it kind of Is her fault. She is the one who made him eat that pill. I knew this part was coming anyways. Zane was already sick scince the 2nd book, the pretties.
Tally is new now. Zane died. Smoke still lives. I recommend this book to teens. It is not appropriate for children. I rate this book 4 out of 5.
