Review Detail

Reader reviewed by Kayla (Midnight Twilight)

Tally thought they were just a myth, but now she's one of them. A special, a cutter. She is programed to keep the uglies in check and the pretties stupid.

But something stirs at the back of her mind and she questions whether being special is the best thing int the world, or if there's something better.

Tally is then given a chance to complete her mission: to wipe out the New Smoke forever. But there is still the little nagging doubt in the back of her mind. Which way will her loyalty fall; read the Uglies Series to find out.


The Uglies Trilogy was supposed to be a "Trilogy" (as in three books), but Scott Westerfeld decided to write a fourth book in the series (and i'm not complaining, these books are amazing). But this book was meant to be the end and was written that way, so that's how i'll talk about it. This is the resolution for Tally, Shay, David, Zane, and the rest of the group. It's amazing to see how all these people changed over a one year time line. In Specials i find Tally a bit scary, i know she's the same person she always was, but the way she acts is a bit unnerving. In the end i truly believe this series is a must read for anyone who has a pulse.
